May 14, 2009

HP Pavillion DV9500t got damaged when i was playing game 3 months ago. the Main problem for the hp is Graphic card gone and the motherboard might not work either. the pc had been sent for repair once 7 months ago due to the blackscreen (LCD screen with no background light) and this happened just before the end of the 1 year Warranty.

I bought it at end of June 2007.

currently, i dont know if i still possible to get it repair without pay anything.

HP/Compaq :: HDX 18" & DV9500T

Feb 25, 2009

I want to know this two things:

1st- Does HDX 18" Laptops get as hot as dv9500T? My dv9500T (as most hp laptops) used to get pretty hot under normal circumstances (about 60C just browsing) and as almost everyone here I use Rightmark CPU to downclock my CPU and use a Cooling pad to keep temperature under control (44 - 48 C). I'd like to get an HDX 18" but I'd like them not to have the same problem, if somebody owns one, please share your experience and also, Does HDX 18" laptop support more than 4GB Ram?.

2nd- In the case I can't get an HDX 18", I might want to upgrade the Processor. What is the highest proecessor a DV9500T will support? See my signature to check on my current dv9500T config.

HP/Compaq :: Dv9500t Video Failure

Dec 15, 2009

I have a DV9500t with a nvidia 8600gs card in it. Last Friday my wife brought it to work and when she was leaving she just shut the laptop and stuck it in our notebook bag. When she got home we went out to eat and when we got back we took the laptop out and it was very very hot and smelled a little funny, apparently the damn thing didn't go to sleep when my wife closed the lid. Great HP workmanship there.... Well I let it cool off and turned it on... It started showing little red dots all over and when it tried to boot into windows there was multi colored lines up and down the screen. I could boot into safe mood and see everything, but the display was still a bit screwy show little red dots and artifacts everywhere...

So I've concluded that the video card overheated and I'm lucky it didn't start on fire, but at the same time the laptop is unusable. Is there anything inexpensive that I can do about this? The warranty expired a year and a half ago and I certainly can't afford a new laptop at this point. This is very frustrating since I thought the laptop would last at least another year.... Does anyone know if the video card can be replaced?

HP/Compaq :: Dv9500t Screen Went Black

Feb 8, 2009

I own a dv9500t model which has been working fine since I bought it in October 2007. Today out of the blue the screen went black while I was working on the computer. What does this mean? I am still able to use the computer via an external monitor.

HP/Compaq :: Dv9500t- Died.... Upgrade

Apr 12, 2010

I have the dv9500t that died yet a third time because of the nvidia problem.

I am wondering if I can buy a new laptop, which would probably be a base model, and then successfully transplant the CPU and RAM and HDD into the newer laptop. My CPU is still WAY better than anything out there in todays base models (C2D T7300 4MB L2 Cache, etc etc) and I have 4GB of RAM installed. I have 2 HDDs, one is 160GB, one is a 320GB HDD that I plan on installing onto the new laptop.

So basically, RAM and HDD specs arent important to me in the new laptop except that my current one from the dv9500t fit, as well as the CPU being able to fit in the new laptop.

I need to buy a laptop asap, but it sucks that my 3yr old dv9500t is still margins better than today's base models... i was hoping that today's base models would be as good or even better than my current model

HP/Compaq :: HP DV9500T Video Card Dead

Jan 20, 2009

I bought this hp dv9500t laptop in oct, 2007 and is now out of warranty.

I have updated Vista to SP1. Yesterday, I was playing a song in windows media player while the lid was kept closed. Suddenly, the song went into trrrrr like sound and the machine rebooted on its own. After having rebooted on its own, the display went into lowest bit depth (6 bit/600x480!), I had to manually change it to 32 bit / 1680x1050.

Then to my shock, I found, the video adapter was not Nvidia and it defaulted to default generic VGA driver in display properties.

Later I tried reinstalling the nvidia driver and even upgraded it to latest from laptopvideo2go site. But nothing solves the issue, it never identifies any nvidia display driver.

Looks like the display card got corrupted after upgrade to sp1.

What options do I have now? How much will it cost me to get the video card replaced, if it is determined that the card is corrupted? I am in India now, so I am clueless where I need to send this machine to get serviced?

HP/Compaq :: "Best" BIOS For DV9500t

Oct 22, 2009

I've had my DV9500t for nearly two years now and can say that for the most part I've been happy with it.

I've been reading a good deal about the overheating 8600M GS issues and have personally noticed that under load the laptopo does get extremely hot. Usually when using intensive applications (modeling, simulations, games, etc) I try to use a desktop but sometimes I do use this laptop.

I'm planning to get to get a cooler, but was wondering if upgrading my BIOS could also actually help as well. I’ve seen a few posts about the different versions for the DV9500t, but am wondering which version you have all found to be the “best” in terms of thermal management and overall performance (if any difference).

Right now my laptop is running the original F.09. I’ve held off on updating the BIOS thinking if there’s nothing wrong why bother, but now I think that maybe it is time to update, just in case.

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavillion DV3

Apr 21, 2009

Yesterday I bought HP Pavillion DV3z-1000 with AMD Athlon X2 QL-62 2000Mhz and ATI Radeon HD 3200.

It look very nice, but also have some problem - always working cooler. When you are not using strong applications, such as Video Playaer, Flash Video in browser etc., it's work fairly quiet, but if not... .

Is it here another customers of this model? Did you have this problem? RMClock does not support Athlon QL-62 so I can't decrease the voltage .

I bought a HP Pavilion dv5215us around August of 06...Doing some research I understand that electronics depreciate drastically and I'm curious to know how much it would've been worth now because it got stolen (in the hands of a technician) and now he is asking my opinion of a price/value for it.

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavillion Webcam

Aug 9, 2009

i got an HP Pavillion Artist's Edition laptop (HP Pavillion dv2700) with a built-in webcam, running Vista. even more recently i decided to try to get a program i could use to record my desktop, just for fun. i tried a program called ManyCam (since it was free). however, it didn't seem to work with Youcam, and when i tried using Youcam, that wouldn't work either. ManyCam froze when i tried to select the webcam as the source, and Youcam simply showed a black screen where i should've been able to see myself. in the end i uninstalled Youcam (i also no longer have quickplay because i was sick of it starting every time i accidentally brushed the button).

after searching for a solution i tried downloading and installing a non-HP driver (Chicony--now the driver shows up as Acer Crystal Eye webcam). this didn't help any. i even tried a different program, Debut Video Capture Software. still no luck (when i select "device" as the source i just get a black screen). i've looked everywhere i could think for a solution but have yet to find one. any help would be greatly appreciated. just ask if any additional information is needed.

ok, here's what i did: i uninstalled the chicony driver, as well as ManyCam and the other program i had installed. i also got skype, on a friend's recommendation. i restarted my computer to install updates. the hp webcam driver seemed to be installed and running fine. skype detected my webcam. however i still got no picture, just a blank/black screen. even on msn. i found a torrent of youcam and installed it, but it keeps telling me there's no video device detected. my webcam is turning on, but beyond that it's still not working.

Im stuck between getting an acer 1810tz or the DM1, the DM1 is actually a bit better with its DDR3 and bluetooth, its possible i can get it for cheaper as well.

However the inspiron 11z looks great too but the reviews say that sucks with its horrible touchpad and only 1 ram slot etc, i cant find any reviews of the DM1 anywhere, is it a good laptop? Better than the 1810tz?

HP/Compaq :: Pavillion DV6Wireless

Aug 19, 2009

I'm having a a VERY hard time getting my sister's DV6 to connect to our router.

I've updated the wifi driver, and the firmware on my ASUS WL-520 GU.

I can see the network, but I won't let me connect. Running WPA-Auto-Personal.

Now, I've heard that Vista has issues with WPA, but my dell connects fine without any issues.

If I plug the laptop into the router with an ethernet cable, I can connect wirelessly to the router. If I then unplug from the router, the wireless with work for a couple minutes, and then kick me off.

HP/Compaq :: Pavillion DV2500Keyboard

Oct 8, 2009

I am working on salvaging a family member's Pavillion DV2500 from a nasty spill. She spilled some soda all over the laptop and it obviously caused some issues.

I was able to get it all cleaned up and back to normal working order with the exception of the keyboard. When I use the keyboard a single keypress will result in multiple keypresses registering. For example: When I press the '1' key, it actually inputs '21'. This only happens for keys on the left side of the keyboard.

I know the first response will be, replace the keyboard. Well I did. Twice. Each new keyboard has the same response.

Has anyone had similar experience? I have tried cleaning up the connection on the motherboard for the keyboard the best I can and still nothing.

I can't/not sure how to attach the screenshots of the specs/ I tried the "copy' "paste" and that didn't work.

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavillion DV9574ea Graphic

Sep 2, 2009

When I power on my laptop, blue dots or blue lines appears on the screen. As soon windows vista boot screen comes, a multi color screen appears and it stays there until i restart. I have did all the troubleshooting such as memory modules replacement, factory restore, system recovery etc. but couldnt able to solve the issue.

When I go into safemode and remove the nvidia drivers, system starts working in 16bit color mode. I have installed several graphic drivers but then again multi color screen appears on windows boot screen.

As per my local repair shop, its an issue with integreated graphic chip and he can fix it by replacing it with another graphic chip. therefore no need to replace the board.

Is it possible to replace the chip?

HP/Compaq :: Pavillion Dv5t Shutting Off

Apr 15, 2009

I came across a random thread that already asked this question- but never found a resolution. The problem I'm having right now is the thing just shuts off. I'm assuming it's an over-heating issue, but I am also wondering if it could be something else.

Computer less than six months old- I'm pretty taxing on it, but find that it shuts off when I'm playing ridiculous windows-based games like Farm Frenzy. It gets insanely hot, like while playing a windows game, I had it on my lap...

Also, I don't know if this is in any way related, but the charger that it came with blew like a week ago. Whenever I'd put my ear up to it, it'd tick. I don't know if maybe a short somewhere can cause something like that to happen.

I'm wondering if this is something I should have looked into- (I have a 3-year warranty). Or is this me just buying a crappy laptop and having to buy one of those cooling fans.

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavillion Dv6345us RAM Capacity

if it is possible to install more than the 2 GB of RAM that this laptop is listed as the max.?

I've been told that if you flash the BIOS to the latest version, you can install
(2) 2 GB memory sticks and the laptop will recognize 3 GB for Vista 32-bit or 4GB for Vista 64-bit. Also, you must ensure that the memory conforms to certain specs.?

Is this true, or am I stuck with 2 GB max.?

HP/Compaq :: Pavillion Matte Screen

Jun 6, 2009

Are matte screens available on any Pavillion systems? I've searched and searched, but they pretty much all seem to be 'brightview' or 'infinity brightview', which are glossy, right?

I don't want to start this whole 'matte vs. glossy' debate again, but needless to say I work in a bright office and my DV4T's reflections are killing me

So far I've found the business Elitebooks look nice and have matte screens, but they're a tad behind, say, the HDX systems in terms of the available configurations.

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavillion White Corners

Jun 14, 2009

The screen is has white upper corners

I have an year plus HP pavillion dv6000 series.

Maybe I didn't notice before or they appeared recently, but there is whiteness on the upper left and right corners of the screen. It isn't on the outside as it only shows up when the laptop is on.

Also, if i have a darker background like on movies that are on widescreen format [black bars above and below the movie], the whites becomes smaller like a small line on the corners.

Is it something to do with the screen losing its life or is it because of some internal dust? I have used windex to clean it but I wonder how can dust get to the back of the screen? It is primarily used a home desktop.
