HP/Compaq :: HP Pavillion Dv9500 Lcd Shows Nothing

Oct 23, 2009

I have an HP Pavillion dv9500. It worked perfect up until about two months ago. One day I turned it on and the screen wouldn't show anything. The computer actually turns on and all of the keyboard lights turn on but the screen is blank. It seems like the backlight lights up because the screen turns into that light grayish color but it doesn't actually show a picture. I've hooked it up to my tv using an HDMI cable and I don't get a picture on the tv either.

I've read about people having the same issue with their HP pavillion and have tried numberous fixes from other forums online, but nothing has worked.

HP/Compaq :: Pavilion DV9500

Aug 25, 2009

Last night I was on my computer working on a graphic design project for school (was running Photoshop) when the screen went a weird purple color and then completely blank after a minute or so. The computer was still running, however, and pretty hard at that, so I shut it off. Since then, whenever I turn it on the screen shows up split into four, equal, horizontal parts.

If I do not touch anything, it will continue to show the Microsoft loading screen, but then shows a blue screen for a few seconds then reboots. Screen Pic

If I press Esc at the initial restart Screen Pic, it launches "Windows error recovery" and gives a choice between using 'Launch Start Up Repair' and 'Start Windows Normally' Screen Pic. It will not start up Windows (Vista), instead it reboots the computer and starts all over again. When I try Startup Repair Screen Pic, after a few minutes, it asks me if I want to restore my computer using System Restore. After about 10 minutes I get a message saying that it cannot repair the problem automatically.

HP/Compaq :: DV9500 RAID0 SSD

Nov 18, 2009

i'm thinking about upgrading my HDD's now. I've got an itch for better and bigger SSDs. I was thinking of buying a pair of Intel 80GB G1 or G2, OCZ Vertex 60GB, or OCZ Agility 60GB SSD's and put them in Raid0 on the laptop.

Currently I have a crappy a$$(OCZ Core series V2) ssd and a 5400 rpm hdd in the laptop atm, but i was thinking of getting something much faster to go with my T8300 CPU doing RAID0 on a 5400 or 7200 rpm hdd is dumb because of the heat issues... but RAID0 with SSD's would be just AWESOME. I have never dose RAID0 on a laptop before so i was wondering if its even possible to do it on a HP DV9500 laptop? My roommate has the Gateway FX with that 1900X1200 screen and he has RAID0 on his hdd's from the factory, so i was wondering if its possible to do it on the DV9500?

HP/Compaq :: DV9500 W/ 8600m GS

Jun 25, 2009

I have a HP dv9543cl that was purchased at Costco sometime in late 2007. My nVidia 8600m GS in the laptop started to break down in the summer of last year by presenting symptoms such as system lock-ups, freezing, unable to boot the computer due to video problems, etc. Eventually, the video card finally died in March of this year.

So I recently sent it in to HP (apparantly I had a 2 year warranty on the laptop... something I didn't know. Heh.) I told them of the nVidia issues and etc. so they agreed to replace my motherboard.

I got my laptop sent back to me by HP today with a replaced motherboard and keyboard as a bonus I guess. Anyway... looking in GPU-Z, I notice something strange from the original specs of the nVidia 8600m GS. The GPU clock speed and the memory speed is lower than specified on the nVidia website.

Also, I'm wondering, with this replacement... will this video card die eventually also? Or has nVidia given HP a new 'batch' of chipsets to replace the broken ones?

Here's a pic of my GPU-Z:

Also, my nVidia card is running (idle) at 69C. Is this normal/not unusual operating temperature?

HP/Compaq :: Is It Possible To Run A DV9500 With The Harddrive In The 2nd Area

Sep 1, 2009

Looking at one drive, in both areas area 1 is always significantly hotter than area 2's. A 15 C increase.

Is it possible to set a single harddrive in the 2nd HDD area (farther away from the CPU and GPU that are causing all the heat), with the 1st area empty?

I tried simply moving it from area 1 to area 2, and it said it couldn't find the OS. Is there a way to fix this without reinstalling?

HP/Compaq :: HP DV9500 Freezing In Normal Mode.

Dec 14, 2009

I have a HP DV9500 laptop with Vista. For the last 2 days I am encountering an issue where the Laptop would freeze 5 minutes after logging in. Then there is no HDD activity and the computer can only be shutdown by holding down the power button. I tried working with the "Safe Mode with Networking" option and this issues never comes up. I kept the system running for almost 5 hours in Safe mode still there was never an issue.

The Freezing only happens in the normal mode. If this was an Overheating/Hardware isssue then irrespective of the Mode the error should have occured is my thought. Overall the system was very fast even in the normal mode before this issue occured. I am also running coretemp software and the temperature is always around 35 Centigrade. Some times it goes up to 45s. But overall it never crossed 50. So i am not fully convinced it it is overheating issue.

The latptop is around 2 years old. Last year during the warranty period there was an motherboard issue and HP replaced my motherboard for free.

Would a system restore do any good if this is typically a hardware issue. I am unable to decide weather it is an hardware issue or a software issue.

HP/Compaq :: Dv9500 Video System Memory Determination

HP/Compaq :: HP Pavilion Dv9500 - Desktop Screen Was Frozen With Mouse Cursor

Jan 7, 2010

I have a HP Pavilion dv9500 notebook and yesterday after more than two years of pretty much running smoothly it wouldn't boot. First it actually booted into windows but the whole desktop screen was frozen with mouse cursor. So I turned it off, turned it back on and it booted into blue screen and restarted itself. After couple of tries I booted into safe mode which was running fine.

I wasn't sure what the problem was but I was thinking it must be software related, so I loaded an image of my system which I've used before and knew was ok. But even after putting a brand new OS it was doing the same thing.

One time I was actually able to boot into normal mode so I thought maybe the issue got resolved magically. But, I have my external monitor plugged in and even when in normal mode the signal wouldn't go through, so I had to use my laptop monitor. I kept trying to switch the signal and even though it was showing the icon like it's transferring nothing happened. So I checked my video card properties and the card all of the sudden had no drivers and was basically unrecognized by the OS.

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 .

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.

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.
