From the Service manual:

90-W AC adapter (for use only with computer models equipped with dual lamp display assemblies) 453198-001

65-W AC adapter (for use only with computer models equipped with single lamp display assemblies) 453199-001

90-W AC adapter 432309–001

It is hard to read but it appears the part number for that adapter is 394224-001 and it is for an older model the dv8000. 

That is a 19v 4.74 amp and you need an 18.5 volt and 3.5 amp or 4.9 amp.
