Have you got this fixed? I have some suggestions. I've ran in to this problem a few times with several different laptops and got it corrected.

@arel3 I never fixed it. HP just wanted me to pay $400 for a new motherboard + service. I just ended up selling it on ebay.

I have the same exact problem with my Dv 9000. One day it was working fine then nothing. I saw some tutorials on youtube about what i can do to fix this problem. I took my whole laptop apart, cleaned it up on the inside, made sure the screen was connected, then put it back together. In addition to the fact that when i screwed it back together, i was left with an extra screw, i didnt end up fixing it. Something is wrong with the motherboard i was told, so most likely it needs to be replaced.

did you try baking the motherboard...i've been reading up and checking videos, and some claim it works? I don't know myself, but i have a dv9600 with the same issue. i'm debating on trying it...got nothing to lose at this point.

there is a class action law suit call where you bought the computer and ask  about the status of the law suit.

HP dv9000 has a bios problem that causes the fan to not run to cool the chips, thus your CPU and video chips get too hot and do not work or become damaged. HP knows this and they never made a strong effort to recall these models. The vents need to be cleaned, and then replace the fan if it does not work after bios fix. Replacing the fan required a total dis-assembly. PS: Never block the vents by placing laptop on you bed. Must be a hard flat surface.

I made the mistake of buying this computer refurbished from the repair shop. I bougth it for $300. This computer is probably the worst computer ever made. This was one of the problems, also it gets really hot when its on. My current problem with this computer is that it freezes after it starts up. My Compaq C502 (which I accidently killed with soda) wasnt the best, but it was still better than this one. I may end up selling it for parts also.

my dv9000 does this too, mine just makes loud beeping noises when i turn it on, and then no display, and though blind, i can sign in to my account, i know because my ipod syncs then i lokin and itunes opens up...is it possable to just buy a replacement graphics card for a dv9000, or is it just toast?

@princess30982 i had the problem with a hp they said to discharge the batteries i did and it worked

@alexspengler LOL bad you! If you have this problem again Google it, there's a thing called an inverter that might cause this issue. You'll come up with a few different things to try to get your display back. What I've experienced to work is a little crazy but makes sense when you think about it - purposely overheating laptops until they shut down on their own resets the GPU to it's default settings. Not always the problem, it could be the motherboard, but it's worth trying.
