Where can I buy a lower price HP PAVILION DV8000
It's much better to buy the battery from the manufacturer's website. The transaction is a lot safer and reliable. Take there are two categories of battery the ORIGINAL and REPLACEMENT. Normally the highe mAh capacity has the longer battery life. The price of REPLACEMENT batteries are much lower than the ORIGINAL batteries.
You can view the product on this site:

Boot device not found but hard disk is passed?????
I've ran into this issue a few times. It always turned out to be a hard drive failure causing it. Try replacing the hard drive with a spare if you have one, or remove the hard drive and connect it to a working computer to see if it can read it.
The has only been one instance of this problem in which it turned out the hard drive was fine. The problem was actually the motherboard. It was an older laptop so it was cheaper to replace the whole thing instead of repairing it. I hope this helps!
Fan noise after a few minutes running.
Fans are typically a little noisey. If it's exceptionally loud or continues for a long time it may indicate the fan is no providing the proper cooling. Purchase a laptop cooling pad to place under the laptop while your useing it and make sure nothing is interfering with the airflow around the unit.
104-Unsupported wireless network device detected. system halted. remove device and restart
The problem is caused by a card that is either not built for the machine or is corrupt. This is not a driver issue as this message comes up in the POST (Power On Self Test) this is before any driver is loaded. The reason that this happens when a network card is replaced is because HP/Compaq laptops have a whitelist of allowed cards built into the bios. If the cards vendor and device id don't match one on the list they don't allow you to run it. This is simply so you have to line the pockets of HP spare parts for somthing 10 times more than what it is worth. The only solution is to flash your bios with a modified one to remove the white list. This is a very risky operation and could brick your machine. If your getting this error and have not changed your card the likely reason is corrupt card or the bios has somhow become corrupt. Good luck on this issue.

HP Pavilion Laptop -- massive power problems?
hello chad
Seem to be circuit issue.
You can check charger with volt meter to check its working ok.
Drain all resistors of power by removing battery and charger and holding down power button for 10 seconds.
There is a power button board that can be bad.
I like to break things down by just powering the laptop with memory and keyboard, power button board only. this will require removing motherboard power button board so it will only be the parts to POST.
Minimal Post .
It can be an array of things from the systems casing shorting it out to other hardware.
