  • Shoot ur bird or turn off ur slug bug alarm

    it's very imoprtant to me !! please ANSWER ME !

  • @Mario7058 very unlikely...

  • @Mario7058 i got this computer and it runs COD MW2 without any lag.

  • Got this computer 3 years ago. Since then the speakers have gone out twice, battery dies after a minute, over heats, disk drive has broken, motherboard recall, and two days ago my hard drive failed. Worst computer ever. I'm buying a Mac Book next.

  • If you own a DV6000, there's a good chance that sooner or later you will lose WIFI functionality, and eventually video altogether.

    Precision Division in Florida specializes in laptop motherboard repair. After your motherboard is fixed, a series of thermal modifications are implemented to make sure that it doesn't overheat and break again.

  • I got the same laptop for $400 on Black Friday last year. It's a great laptop but I've been getting the same error message from Internet Explorer since day one --- every time I open IE it says the program was closed unexpectedly and gave me 2 options: go to home page or resume previous session. I tried changing/reset the home page but it didn't help. Do you have the same problem? My laptop is till under warranty, I don't know if I should send it in for repair, which will be a lot of hassle.

  • @seaweed9999 This is just a software problem, nothing to do with the laptop hardware. There is no need to send it in for repairs. It is the stupid Windows Vista acting up. An upgrade to windows 7 would do nice.

  • do not buy hp computers. They are defective and will most definitely fail within a year. Look into it for yourslef.

  • Is this laptop worth buying for $175?

  • @ctophman no

  • i have this computer but i hate it.... its not that "great" for me, it over heats and the battery it horrible, its slow and when i turn off it can barely turn back on... but i am going to dump it for a Gateway NV5387u or something else... but please dont get this PC!

  • hp suuuuucks

  • hp sucks

  • @GraviFreak Mine does too. That and I've had to restore it to factory condition twice due to hardware or software problems. I love my laptopppy but sometimes the problems it gives me are maddening. One time my friend touched the bottom of it after we'd been searching the web for something-or-the other, and she could've sworn she burnt the tip of her finger.

  • I bet this laptop is broken by now xDD

  • I bet the laptop is broken by now xD

  • i have this computer and I F'ing love it

  • las ho dv6000 ya son obsoletas

  • Just get the upgrade one with 4gb ddr3 and a 500 gb harddrive with intel because amd chip suck it is slow as fuck when you can get intel that runs better and faster and has a name that u can trust(intel)

  • my bro has the same=D..

  • I have a Hp dv6921la is normal the turion 64x2 has so overheated ??sometimes the temperture came to 100° celsius

  • I just bought this computer and i must admit that it looks cool and is very fun to use... mine is a dv6000-2028ca(black) and it has been good to me so far. it cost $875.00 and it came with a free noton 360 ani viris, a free printer and just to rub it in...it came with windows 7.

  • The DV6000 is a real lemon of a computer. motherboards go out all the time on these.

  • That model has been discontinued for a long time. Don't forget the extended warranty with any HP notebook as the motherboard will be toast just after a year!

  • hp pavilion dv6-2090 is way better

  • i got a way better one

    HP Pavilion dv6948ca

    Intel Pentium dual core

    3GB RAM

    250GB hard drive space

    2.0 GHZ

    windows vista

  • Comment removed

  • noob.

    Core 2 Duo T5500

    Processor specs:

    35W, 65NM technology

    1.6Ghz, 866Mhz FSB

    2MB L2 cashe, 256KB L1 cashe

    its in a socket M.

    oh, and the graphics and mobo chipset are a Intel GMA 5500, integrated

    you should post this stuff in the description.

  • thats why I got you guys for, to post this stuff for me. hahaha

  • @elcano9 Does the Pavilion dv6000 have a webcam because I noticed you didn't mention it. I also have other questions.

    Do it yourself if you think this isn't "perfect"

  • i love reading comments as good as the videos lol

  • i got a name im not a people

  • i love this ;aptop, had mine over a year and still works

  • how big is the screen 15 inch?

  • Don't listen to the guy below me, I've had no problems with this laptop and I bought it over a year ago now, the amount of things I've done to it accidentally and it still works as well s it did. 2 problems though if you are going to buy it:

    1) It gets really hot quickly, especially if you rest it on your lap and don't let the fans get the heat out fully. Although when in does get really hot nothing seems to happen performance wise.

    2) The battery life is baddddd, like an hour at the most!

  • Yeah, I have one. Is it Vista 32 or 64 bit?

  • 32 bit. but the Intel Core 2 Duo series all have 64bit support. its not really usefull unless you have more than 2gb ram or a quadcore.

  • Thank you much!

  • My Dv6000 Sucks big BALLS. Wireless card shot,Power button broke,Speakers broke,Touch pad broke. Its a POS And i treat mine really Fing good always clean looking good and still a POS. Hp sucks ass. DON'T BUY THIS LAPTOP. What ever you do don't buy buy this laptop.

  • i made my laptop 8gb of ram

  • Do you not list the model number of the processor? Noob reviewr.

  • Take some SERIOUS grammatical lessons and then come back and post another comment ok? Thanks!

    PS: Look up for your S/N and while you're doing it, why don't you open up your laptop and write down the S/N on the processor and video card. hahaha! "newbie"

  • IBook sucks. And add to your list of what it's good for as:

    Videos, listening to music (awesome audio thanks to the speaker which spans the width of the laptop creating dynamic surround sound), searching for applications (I think the quick start search applies to all Vista products, but it's still quite convenient), and desktop windows (desktop windows manager makes it look stylish).

    And I can't think of anything else different than my old Acer XP Laptop yet...

  • dude were you the guy that had tat really bad virus on your computer

  • I have no complaints with mine...except it came with 2 slots..each has 512mb. I want to upgrade (to 4GB) but it says max capacity is 2GB. can i do a bios update? Has anyone done that?

    If not i will make do with 2GB.

  • my dv 6000 is differnt

    3gb ram

    intel core 2 duo

    256mb intel 950gma intel video suck :( not nvidia

  • i have it on my lap right now it doeant suck that bad

  • Your such a Vista hater, Keep living in the past instead of spending $50 on more RAM. Makes sense to those who can't tell the diff between U and V i guess

  • I think that software should develop in a way that makes it more user effective without having to use more PC resources. That way we have a more useful Operating System, while keeping your laptop cool and happy, leaving more capacity for those PC melting programs. But can't expect more from those who cannot read the V on the side description.

  • @elcano9 windows seven, anyone?

  • i installed windows 7 in mine and it feels like if it had 4gb .

    its so fast.... i think windows vista is the main problem. Linux runs like a bullet tooo..

  • HELP!

    ok, i wanna make a video on the quick capture.

    But everytime i press play to watch it, the sound goes normally but the video is going super fast as if it was getting fast forwarded.

    Help?!

  • i have this computer and all the windows stuff sucks ass on it!

    in reality this computer itself sucks ass!

  • i just bought my dv6000, I've got a LOT of complains. First of all: like a half year after buying this, this computer just frozed up, and when I went to hp-service, they "didn't" find anything defective??? WTF? and then after 2 months of complain, angry emails and phone calls they finally gave me a new laptop. Yey! But, then I realized that this shit doesn't run the most of real games (like un-online games). So, NEVER buy a laptop that cost like less than 1200€ or $/£ 1000

  • Lol. NEVER buy a laptop if you want to play games.

  • true that get a fuckin desktop soo you can mod that shit up...

  • agree.

  • If you bought this laptop for gaming u r a dumbass and in my opinion u should die u can by a laptop for gaming but really? look at specs....... u arent getting a gaming laptop and its not wat it was built for i have same laptop and it may not work for extreme gaming but it gets job done for light gaming

  • and what's the model of the motherboard??

  • I've got that laptop - it's very good! Been using it since Christmas - no complaints.

  • Does ANYONE who had the misfortune of buying a dv6000 (me included) actually fully enjoy the thing? Damn thing's got so many problems - wireless card, overheating, slow, crappy battery life...

  • had mine 6months and now its saying my harddrives about to fail it gets tooo hot the just switches off by it self

  • @Billy4202 bro my pc cant run game off 2003!!! overheating blue screen !!!!

    this suks -_-

  • @TheCreed20 use one of those of those air can cleaners, i did on mine, and now it works perfect

  • @Billy4202

    My dv6000 has got so fucking hot that it just shut itself off, I've also got a letter from HP recalling the battery pack saying it could overheat and catch on fire also.

    I'd let this piece of shit burn before I sent it to HP.

  • @Billy4202 i use a mouse, when i use the track pad i can't feel my fingures. plus the remote don't work. and when i try to press the power button it goes into sleep mode... >:(

  • @Billy4202 Well I never had any of those problems.

  • i have a question:

    does the amd cpu mostly makes the laptop hot? or maybe the vga overheats?

  • try cooling fans for the hottness, they work

  • on mine it just says dv6 and it doesnt get hot not like my hp pavilion tx1000 why doesnt it get hot and how come it wont let me download google earth 5.0 u dont have to answer i just wanted to know if it was the same

  • lol, but it's so annoying when you want to put it on your lap, unless your very cold.

  • yea i hate that i have it on my lap right now i feel like balls are gonna melt off..lol.

  • My sister thought the laptop was going to burn the table down, lol!

  • I got 1 like this Its SO FUCKING LOUD WHEN IT GETS HOT

  • yeah i feel your pain i fucking hate my dv6000

  • i have a USB cooler in the bottom of my laptop. is the same one as this one

  • is this laptop come with web cam built in??

  • yes

  • I bought this laptop and im really unhappy =( This PC (mine has 1 GB Ram) can barely run even games like counter-strike 1.6 and it laggs EVEN IN MAPLESTORY! (maplestory is a 2D game with horrible graphics)

  • Lies!

    I have the same laptop (with 1GB RAM)

    I run 1.6 with 65 fps.

    I run css 45 fps average.

    I can even run L4D.

  • You try to run Vista and games on 1GB of RAM!!?!???!?!?! I use 4GB of RAM, and I would still not try games on that. Upgrade to 4-32GB of RAM for games!

  • great laptop but i had to buy a new stick of ram because it only came with one but mine came with n nvidia 7800 and can run crysis great on medium

  • mine is refurbished. What does that mean?

  • oh ya mine is 4 gig ram and 250 gig HD

  • i got the special edition one

  • yea....i also got the white one......SPEcIAL EDITION

  • this pwns mabooks

  • You cannot rate this pc 6 out of 10 just because of windows vista which is the os why dont you change it

  • I can change it, but good luck then gettin all the drivers because they come only for windows vista, no xp drivers. I already did it with a very similar hp. The vista wannabe monopoly...

  • the dv6000 is the series and you cant really argue about the graphics you PICKED IT , well i have got the dv6700 great laptop needs abit more battery life o well

  • I have a question. i just got this laptop today, and on the top right corner of the screen is says pavillion dv6000. then when i go into system maintenance in control panel, it says pavillion dv6700. which of those is right?

    thanks!

  • Hi, at the top of the right it means "HP Pavilion DV6000 SERIES" Also, you have the dv6700.

  • This is the same laptop as mine!

  • haha got this pc today also its pretty awesome

  • Wow, windows vista is that bad?

  • Microsoft admitted Vista was a failure.

  • i just got this computer today. it is soooooooooo sick!!!!!!!! i love it!

  • "loaded with SHIT as you could say"... hilarious

  • I just got this laptop 2 days ago and its fast and doesn't get all hot like most laptops and is overall a great laptop :):):)

  • try to play a hd video and it will go crazy dude i been through 2 now. don't watch hd videos fullscreen

  • ive done it notin happens works perfectly

  • i have this computer it is so cool i love it

  • i dont like amd

  • Has the gaphics chip fried in it yet?

    Mine went today after 5 months of use :-(

  • just got this computer today :D

  • and.....When I bought it no one said it comes with a lifted Battery (I wanted the flat battery like shown in the manuals it comes with)

    O and the very first one I got the MoBo was bad!!

  • I have the same one with the new Intel Chip, fastest 15.5 HP laptop so far, one problem with HP-The keyboard is warped, I went back to the store and looked at other 15 HPs and they were all the same, Look at the Right/Left Click mouse buttons there not evenHey come with vista only and IE keeps crashing, I asked if I can swap for XP they said the drives are not compatible,

  • Man i have this laptop and my wireless stopped working... B/S!!!!

  • Yes my wireless just stop 2 days ago! I've had it for a year now. I Had to Reboot it a month after I got it! I Lost EVERYTHING! My ACadapter stop working on the same day the warranty was up! If you're a rich and simple this computer is okay, however if you're a college student who's money isn't a free,then I wouldn't recommend the DV6000 or a Dell! I'd say go Apple or just do your research or try this A MONTH BEFORE THE YEAR WARRANTY IS UP SMASH YOUR COMPUTER AND GET A NEW 1 FREE UNDER WARRANTY!

  • You know hp extended the warranty to 24 month for wifi problem?

    My wifi died yesterday .I hate their support thec.

  • Well their sending for my computer now I'll be sending to the factory in a day or two. so they'll replacing the MOTHERBOARD!!!! If thats not the problem then I'll have to pay $139 for a new wireless chip!

    In the words of a beloved classic "GOOD GRIEF!!"

  • It is the motherboard so dont worry

  • i have this computer and im using it now and very often, its good fast and cool

  • I have this computer, GREAT, But Mine has better Procesor, and it comes with windows Vistas Home Premium!

  • i have the same one. runs great and fast

  • I HAVE THIS MODEL ,IS VERY FAST

  • if your looking for games get counter strike source, orange box, and oblivion. you will be set for a while there

  • anyone know cool games? i've had my dv6575 for a while, and i love it..havent been using it for games though. i need suggestions on good games that'll maximize its full potential, without buggyness or slowness

  • nice

  • i have the same one but mine has camara installed

  • My sister has that same laptop, dv6353us, she bought it a year ago from officemax, i suppose you bought from the same place either. The laptop is sturdy for a consumer grade notebook, decent price for the performance, in that time 2GB of RAM were a big plus, today 2gigs is the standard and 4 gigs is the best. The downside of this laptop, the processor and graphic card, produces a lot of heat! and is a 90nm processor. These laptops under perform with vista coz they are loaded w/ massive junkware

  • ppl... windows XP... that's all I have to say

  • should I buy a new HP laptop or a Sony Vaio??? wich one's better??

  • They say vaios are better, but some ppl also say that they are only more spensive and not so impressive for their price. Surf the web for reviews.

  • I love your description... selling it for an iBook after complaining about graphics card...

    Integrated ftw?

    Learn you some shit, kid.

  • Dude guys, I have the latest model of HP Pavilion and I can't even play Starwars empire at war on the highest settings without it lagging up. Someone please help me.

  • macs are better!

  • dang is vista that bad seriously every1 says it sucks... maybe its ur comp that sucks, ever thought of that

  • A word of advice to anyone with a dv6000, back up your data frequently. When the wireless card craps out, it's only a matter of time before the video card dies, and then backing up your hard drive becomes a real hassle.

  • yea because removing the harddrive and plugging it into my other pc is REALLY hard

  • First, for some people, it's not that simple. Not everyone knows how to do that. I do, but I'm assuming there are a lot of people who don't.

    Also, in dv6000s, the HDD tends to die at the same time as the video card, and then you're stuck paying a shitload of money for data retrival. I'm trying to help people, there's no reason for you to be an obnoxious little prick about it.

  • Plus, you realize we're talking about laptops, right? Adapters to hook a laptop drive to a PC are surprisingly hard to find.

  • it's a rubbish laptop. I've got one, and i've sent it 2 times to the tech support, because the laptop didn't boot without no special use.

  • did u say du or dv lol nice review

  • I have one its great. whats module # on the bottom mines dv6609wm wm=walmart. it was made to be sold cheap some other was where to

  • i am using this pc right now, it's very fast but the video cards sucks, I can't play high definition games

  • Windows vista, would be useful in 64 byts mode maybe whit 2010 amd turion development.

    Install XP and all your problems will finish

  • i really like this Notebook

    i want buy it but im from egypt

    are u think i can buy it from internet and send it to me to egypt

  • Vote for Pedro!

  • where are u selling it at and how much

  • srr. already sold and i got and ibook g4 1.6ghz with 1gb ram, mac os 10.4. runs like a dream, i wish i gotten an ibook soner. I didnt know what i was missing. Im gonna be mac user from now on. Fuck windows, this baby boots 3 times faster than windows and runs programs and everything a lot more faster. THANK YOU APPLE!! And it only cost $450.00 on ebay.
