HP is crap! Their boards fry all the time. I have had three in my notebook, just had it fixed again and the wireless modem has fried again. I will never buy HP again.
Why did hp stop producing this model? I cant find it anywhere on their site, there is only the special edition which does not have a decent graphic card did they stop producing 15 inch laptops?
They want to increase the sales of their HDX 16t and also wanted to switch to the 16:9 screens...so they released an equivalent dv6 series...dv5t was a kick-ass model...minus the cooling system and the amount of heat it generates lol.
what is the songs name anyone know pleasE? i have this laptop well worth the money i will rate it a 10 it is my first laptop as well battery life is pretty good, but the problem is i cant start my webcam from start i could use it but like i cant find it on the start program or accesories or control panel :/ maybe im not lookin right ^_^
i love the the computer i am using it right now but the volume touch button is fd and ive only had it about 4 months. sometimes im not even touching it and its just going crazy. whats up with that?
Well the volume button is a problem found on every HP, I have the HDX16 and I dont use the volume touch panel because its bugged as hell. But who gives an X about it. Its a great laptop for its price and I can do what a Mac book which costs 10x more, can do. So yes I am happy with it.

If you want to get around 25% off, call HP before ordering and tell them you work for Coca Cola, GE, Verizon or any company like that and they will give you a discount. They will not ask for a paystub or anything, they will believe it
I just ordered one for my b-day. The notebook is pretty cheap for all the performance you get. I just don't know what the GPU is??? Anyone please explain this to me, I heard that the 512mb 9600m GT can not be completely harnessed unless the computer has a good GPU... P.S. I got the 2.4ghz 1066fsb, 9600m GT. Is this computer overclockable? And do you think I need to??? Thanks alot
I used the NB0915 coupon. Its $500 off but from it taking away the instant rebate it is $400 off. Is that what you mean? As of right now though, I managed to get another $200 off and credited back to me because of the price diff. and I order a battery (12 cell)but returned it b/c wrong one but they let me keep the $100 discount. So total spent was $970 for me.
1st $100 came from price difference. Once the laptop went cheaper (graphics and processor) I called and got it credited. Funny thing was that 5 days later the price goes back up by $150. 2nd $100 came when I went to purchase the 12 cell b/c they had it on the website. the rep said it would cost $160 but i told her it was BS cause its only $49 upgrade. So she gave a $100 discount. But I got tHE DV5000 12 cell. i returned it, n they let me keep the $100 discount. they don't take discounts back.
CONTINUED: after i returned it, i started to call them n argue. but they said that the only way i can get a 12-cell is if i return my notebook n have it configured again and pay the diff of $20 for the 12-cell. They said that they haven't even release the 12-cell 4 US yet for public to buy. you can only get 12-cell if your laptop is conffigured to have one. the batt is in china. But on the 14th is my last day of the 21-day policy n Im just goin to pretend to return so i can get hooked up again.
just a little update. i just got finished talking to HP and they credited me another $100 because the probs i've been having in trying to get a 12-cell battery. They're trying to give me hush money. Im loving it. $870 for my config. is way too good i think.
good 4 ya bro.. but anyways its a nice laptop fast and everything.. this was my 2nd choice too coz i picked dell studio 15 but they got me delayed for over a month..but i got more than what dell studio 15 has.. and it was $300 cheaper too
Sorry last post, if you like treat your laptop very well will it last you mechanically for a number of year or will something most likely go wrong with it in a year or 2?
It will last if you look after it there might be a few problems with it and youll have to get it serviced atleast once in 6 months but if you look after it im sure it would last you 5 years although most likley be outdated by then im getting this laptop 2moro its real slick .
how old are you ? ye mechanically it should last you a number of years if somthing does go wrong it would more then likeley be covered by warranty im not exactly an expert you should ask some one in a computer store that sells hp
Im about to be a senior in High School and i was htink either this comp or like the Sony Vaio Ar. I need a laptop that will lasp me for like 3+ years starting now, think this will last me? Also if i get either id get it jacked with 2.8ghz, 4gb RAM, Blueray and so on. Thanks
Does the dv5t have the glossy mouse pas or whatever you call it? cause if you ask me thats like one of the only flaws i see in it, its to resistant when you slide your finger on it, its annoying, am i the only one that thinks that?
No thats the dv5z don't get it b.c this version come with centrino 2 and the dv5z which is out now come out with AMD Turion. I don't like turion with my tx1000. dv5t and dv7t are coming out after july 14th. Really probably gonna be worth the sort wait.
i agree that the new "montevina" intel processors will probably beat out the new "puma" amd processors, but have you seen the GPU performance of the Radeon 3200 IGP that comes with the dv5z? It's supposedly as good as the 8400M GS which is amazing for an IGP... plus if you add the 3450 dedicated graphics, it can do crossfire with the 3200 which boosts performance even more... who knows how the x4500 intel IGP will perform? sure the 9600M will be awesome, but it will also be pricey!
Awesome video. I haven't been able to find a lot of visuals for the model, other than what is displayed on the HP website. I have been researching the DV5 since I am in the market for a new laptop. I am not sure whether to get a DV6700T, or just wait a bit longer for the DV5 to become available.
Both the Intel and AMD models of the DV5 are now available. They weren't when I bought my notebook. I opted for the DV6700T. So far, I haven't regretted it. I've heard some not-so-flattering things about the DV5. I think I made the best choice for me.
