HP Pavilion dv2000 won't start correctly in Vista

My laptop does not start right. All lights come on and the hard drive makes noises, but the screen is not on (not at all). Options screen, errors or recovery of any manufacturer. This happens whenever I have turn off my computer, or the battery dies. Sometimes it will start and I get chkdsk and recovery options, but it takes several tries.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Pavilion a1620n won't start, the fans are not running. PS on the light and Sun. Start button does not illuminate. EU tested ps and I was told it was OK. Disconnected from the motherboard except course before directed ps button and the cpu fan has become much brighter, but that's all that happened. Any suggestions on what to check? Checked with VOM push and he seemed to agree. Replaced the MB with the new Board of Directors, that didn't work either. Don't know if it was any good, it was a store Bulletin Board.

    All the indicators you mention leads to the PSU, not the Board of Directors.

    now the turning on and off thing is really weird for me, she also said he had scratches before the cursor appears after the vista boot screen.

    material?

    Do you have

    (1) to reinstall the memory module

    (2) soft resets the laptop. (remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter / CC and hold the power button / stop for 30 to 60 seconds)

    BTW... If you started a full restore using the recovery partition and it is not ended, you may need to restore with HP System Recovery CD. Hopefull your friend did and kept a set (there are two CD as a whole)

    My conclusion: HP BIOS/USB controller isn't working okey with WD My Book when you start the computer. If you wait about 3-4 minutes, to return to the boot. If you re-create the partition in Windows 7, you might be able to speed up the process. I have converted the MBR to GPT (Google more) and reformatted it NTFS. Reducing a starter and holds a GPT formatted, cannot be a boot disk. Now, there are about 1 min delay. If there is a switch to turn off USB Legacy support, that could help. There is not, thanks to the crappy BIOS HP. You can also seek support from Western Digital and discover interesting things.

    Then, finally, it'll pass the boot.

    • Integrated sound
    • HP USB keyboard and optical mouse

    We also bought this monitor to her (though I doubt it's important in this case):

    HP S1931a 18.5 "diagonal LCD screen

    The problem started about two months ago when the computer turns off without reason then that slowed down (before sleep should have started). After the computer restarts, he gave the beep codes that there was a problem with memory (1 short beep, 1 beep, long pause, repeat) long. After power back off and remove all devices and the power cable, the RAM has been removed (2 x 2 GB), checked for dust, bad seats, pins bent, etc...  The 2 RAM sticks have been resettled and the problem seems to be resolved.

    Fast forward two months (a bit more under warranty), the same problem occurs. This time, replace the RAM has not fixed the problem. Sometimes the computer should boot properly and then randomly cut regardless of what the processor was doing (idle or under load of 25% or more). In addition, beep codes would perhaps only half the time where it would not start. The output has been verified for feeding and another (proven) outlet has also been tried. No change. At this point, the computer won't be enough for any start screen at all, not even a blue screen.

    What he do to power on:

    • All powered fans (power supply, fan CPU cooler, case) and a spin at full speed.
    • Hard drive to wind up.
    • Green light on the power supply remains stable.
    • VA CD drive open and close normally.

    What is does not power upward:

    • No display at all.
    • No beep codes.
    • No blue light on the button walk / stop (top of case).
    • CPU does NOT get hot to the touch after 5 seconds to be under tension (with the fan and the heatsink removed and unplugged).
    • With two strips of RAM not removed, no beep of any kind.

    I also tried to use an old video card, I had to hang out, thinking that maybe the onboard graphics card were no longer works. The video card gets power as his fan runs, also at full speed. Still no display.

    I already bought a pair of replacement RAM sticks, exact same specifications and brand (Crucial), no difference. I tried all combinations of each stick into each slot with the original of the RAM in the first place, so I assumed it was sticks and replaced. Now that the RAM has been replaced and no beep codes, I suspect the motherboard or the CPU.

    I also tried to reset the BIOS by removing the battery for 10 + minutes and also move jumper to 2-3 1-2 during 10 seconds and replace (with power off).

    What I want to know is which component I need to replace to get this computer working before its tax season. I'd like to think it's the processor, because it remains cold to the touch after turning on. If this is the case, can someone confirm that this is a suitable replacement? (Intel Pentium E5700 Wolfdale 3.0 GHz LGA 775 65W Dual-Core processor desktop BX80571E5700http://www.Newegg.com/product/product.aspx?item=N82E16819116381

    If it's the motherboard (I hope not), it can be replaced without having to re - install windows? I can't find an exact replacement for the H - I41 - Μatx Foxconn (Eton). HP has one of these in stock that could be shipped out?

    I know that the computer is already out of warranty (barely) and can do the work myself, but need help to determine the problem I want to throw the money to do this work right.

    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hello jkalbin, I think a bad mother rather than the processor card. Chess with the processors don't happen often at all. You should never feed a computer with radiator/fan all not attached to the processor. Just 5 seconds without the radiator/fan could easily burn a processor.

    The fact that the processor had no hot does not mean it does not work, if the motherboard does not send power to the processor.

    Motherboard failures are many times more often than the failures of processor. I had one processor to fail in more than 25 years of working with computers.

    Just some thoughts.

    I have a dv6000 Pavilion laptop with Windows 7 Operting System.  After a few recent updates at the beginning of my use of the computer (instead of at the end of my computer use), when I turn on the laptop, it brings up my user name and a password field, which, once I insert the password, it should redirect me to the window of the Application.  But after having inserted the password, the word "Welcome" with a circle of rotation appears on the display screen.

  • Pavilion dv6 won't start - black screen


    Hello

    It is always interesting to try first following a Hard Reset.

    Shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Plug the power adapter (leave the battery for now) and see if the laptop boots.

    If the above doesn't help, can you post back with the complete model number and your notebook dv6 series Nr - see here for a guide to the location of such information.

  • Pavilion t390nl: HP Pavilion t390nl won't start

    Off the computer this morning (after being on standby for a few days), I tried to reboot a few hours later. Computer unbootable, no respons at all? Nothing has changed since this morning. Nevertheless, I checked all the cables, etc., but nothing seems to be wrong.

    Someone has a possible explanation for this or is this the end of my computer (purchased in 2003)?

    Thanks for your response

    Wimpee, welcome to the forum.

    I think it could be a failure of the power supply unit (PSU).  Here's a guide to help you troubleshoot it.  If it is a defective power supply, you should be able to replace it with a standard ATX.  I suggest to measure the PSU existing and comparing measures to whichever you choose to replace it.

    • The boot sector has been replaced by a non-standard Windows Vista or Windows 7 boot sector.
    • The boot sector is damaged.
    • An earlier Windows operating system has been installed after the installation of Windows Vista or Windows 7. In this scenario, the computer starts by using Windows NT Loader (NTLDR) instead of Windows Boot Manager (Bootmgr.exe).

    / ScanOs option /ScanOs scans all disks for installations that are compatible with Windows Vista or Windows 7. In addition, this option displays the entries that are currently not in the BCD store.

  • hpdv6000 won't start - error updates configuration? !!

    My HP Pavilion dv6000 won't start.

    When I turn on my laptop it goes through the normal stages of start-up, however it comes up with "configuration updates: stage 3 of 3-0% complete.". Do not turn off your computer.

    It remains on this page for a few minutes with the hourglass of thing going, but nothing happens - it stays on 0%

    The computer then turns off and turns back on again and repeat the process of a second later.

    I can't clear the checkpoint!

    This morning, I thought that it would be alright because instead of going to the screen updates it came with the users screen. I clicked on my profile, entered my password, but then it froze. ??!!??

    So I have held down the power button, it has left a few minutes and turned back on but not luck.

    Continuing along in circles.
