Problem swapping Display Assembly on HP Pavilion dv6000

I have an HP Pavilion dv6000, Windows Vista.  It has a stuck pixel producing a red line on my screen.  Fortunately, I have another dv6000 with a bad motherboard that I can cannibalize for parts.  Unfortunately, I am stuck on trying to remove the Display Assembly.
Specifically, in the Maintenance and Service Guide, on page 5-34, the book says to remove the two screws holding the display assembly.  The screws are in the corner, so I removed all four screws.  However, the display assembly will not budge from the computer.  Also, on page 5-35, the book says to disconnect the display cable.  I cannot figure out how to do that.  It will not budge.  Further, it says to remove the microphone cable.  The only other cable that is next to the display cable is the cable that was connected to the switch cover. 
Can someone give me some guidance on this?  I would really appreciate it.  Thanks!

Hi:
1. Install this driver for the coprocessor.  If it does not install the driver automatically, manually install it as follows:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-55781-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
Go to the device manager and click on the coprocessor needing the driver.  Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update Driver.
Select the browse my computer for driver software option and browse to the driver folder that was created when you ran the file.  That folder will be located in C:\SWSetup\sp37730.
Make sure the Include Subfolders box is checked and the driver should install.  Then reboot.
2 & 3. Install this driver for the base system devices (card reader).
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-55777-1&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&...
4. No such thing.  All BIOS flashes must be run in Windows and only with the supported operating system (Vista).
If you make any attempt to flash the BIOS when running any other operating system but Vista, you can take your notebook straight to the trash bin.
5. Your notebook is not supported by HP for W7, W8 or W8.1, so I imagine there is a driver problem of some kind or another with which I would not be able to help you with as there is probably no solution to it.
You can try manually installing the Vista graphics driver from your notebook's support page in the remote chance that may get the hdmi to work properly.
6. Video adapter upgrades can't be done.

  • Problem with built in camerar - HP Pavilion dv6000 - windows 7 home premium

    hello 
    i own a hp pavilion dv600 laptop with windows 7 home premium sp 1 installed
    yesterday during an skype conversation all of a sudden i lost the camera.
    at the start of the skype call i saw and heard  the other party and they saw and heard me perfectly.
    then without doing anything all of a sudden my camera went dead.
    i checked in device manager and cant see the built in webcam anywhere and neither can skype under the options menu see the camera.
    i restarted the PC and shut it down completely to no avail.
    any suggestions on how to get the camera back?

    Hi,
    Try this alternative method as follows.
    Unless you still have the installer, download the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page - and save the installer to your Downloads folder.
    http://h18021.www1.hp.com/helpandsupport/hp-support-assistant.html
    Next, if you don't have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip.  Please note, if you have a 64bit installation, download and install the .msi 64-bit x64 installer on the link below.
    http://www.7-zip.org/
    Next, right click the HPSA installer you download earlier, select 7-Zip, select extract files and then click Ok.  Open the newly extracted folder, right click on UninstallHPSA and select 'Run as Administrator' - you may well see no progress of this attempted uninstallation, so leave the notebook to idle for a good 10 minutes before restarting it.
    Open your Downloads folder and delete the ‘extracted HPSA folder’ so you are just left with the original installer you downloaded.
    Now, run the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the link below and use it to install the new version of HPSA.

  • HP Pavilion DV6000 start up problem

    Hi,
    Notebook: HP Pavilion DV6000 -  P/N GH882EA#ABH 
    After crashing harddisk, I've installed new harddisk and installed succefully Windows 7.
    I don't have a recovery disc (is was on previous harddrive, that crashed before).
    After that I've checked updates for BIOS / Graphics driver etc. on HP support site, I dowloaded some of them.
    Installation of BIOS update SP48121 stopped at 39 fo 42 blocks. I waited for 3 hours, but nothing happened.
    Then I decided to power of the laptop, knowing that this could cause serious problems.
    Now I've serious problems, because my laptop doesn't start up at all.
    I'm facing black screen and 1 long and 2 short beeps.
    After removing RAM memory, the beeping stopped, but I'm stil looking at a black screen.
    I've studied various solutions on this forum, but nothing works out for me. Even flashing BIOS doesn't work; screen is still black.
    Therefore I'm asking if you can provide a working solution.
    Kind regards.

  • I took my Pavilion dv6000 apart and now the sound isnt working

    So here is the situation...
    My fan has been making noise so I wanted to clean out all the dust from inside my Pavilion dv6000. (But that isn't what i need help with right now.) So after I took it all apart and put it back together, I had this problem with turning the computer on. I think it had to do with this little ribbon cable that wasn't going in the spot where it had to be (it was connected to the power button chip.) I finally got that ribbon where it was suppose to be, and tried to turn it on. It still didnt start. The battery light would go on when it was plugged in, but nothing happened when I pushed the power button. I finally decided to give up and clean the finger prints off of it so I could bring it to my IT teacher tomorrow. While cleaning it, it all of a sudden turned on. I dont know what happened. It just turned on by itself. I mean, I could have pushed something while cleaning it, or maybe something was loose and tightened while i was cleaning it. But anyway, I finally got it to turn on. Now while doing homework, I notice the sound isnt working. I really dont want to take it apart if i dont have to becuase this is the last week of school and I need these practice tests that I put on my computer. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to possibly fix my audio without taking it apart. I was thinking if i check for the latest driver maybe that would help, but i have the latest driver and the sound still doesnt work. So does anyone know how I can fix this without taking it apart? If not does anyone know how I can fix it if i do take it apart? (for example, things to check to make sure they are connected or tightened?)
    Thanks for your time and help, I really appreciate it.

  • Pavilion dv6000: Enable on-board speakers

    I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 notebook running Vista. Recently I bought a pair of external speakers which connect to the computer via USB cable and proprietary software.
    When trying to get these external speakers to work I went into Control Panel > Sound and selected an option to disable the onboard speakers. This caused the icon for the onboard speakers to vanish.
    Now the notebook plays sound only through the external speakers. Can someone please offer me some help in re-enabling the onboard speakers?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    In the absence of any responses I began scratching around myself to try and find clues that might lead to a solution.
    Since I thought the notebook's sound-card drivers may need to be reinstalled I searched for "hp notebook drivers" and in very short order found myself looking at this page: http://tinyurl.com/kkjqrs. One of the headings there is "Resolving No Sound or Audio Problems in Vista" -- it was right up my street. 
    After following the method for "Perform a simple sound system test" and reading subsequent headings it dawned on me that Vista does not by default display the icons of disabled devices on this notebook. Right-click, select display disabled devices and I was home and hosed. 
    I'll give myself a pat on the back! 
    PS: Thanks to CherlyG for posting this link else where:  http://tinyurl.com/2krh3u . If there is a next time at least I'll know how to post the correct model and part numbers, the sort of information that is very helpful to have in hand before one commences an enuiry for computer help. 

  • Will more recent MacBook Pro 15' Display Assemblies be compatible with my mid 2009 MBP?

    My question will be geared towards folks who have experience doing self repairs on their MacBook Pros but I do welcome all helpful input. It breaks my heart to say that my MacBook Pro was dropped and now has a broken LCD/LED screen with a dented Display Housing(Lid) but the Front glass Display is fine. It is currently acting as a desktop with an external monitor. I am looking to do some self repairs as the price they charge at the genius bar isn't worth it for the older model and I am comfortable enough to do the repairs myself. I've been doing some research and it is possible to get the pieces individually(Not through apple directly) but now it becomes a compatibility game. In short, I have a mid 2009 15' 2.53GHz macbook pro but I will post a link to my tech specs.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP544
    My two options for self repair are either to
    A) Buy an entire Display Assembly which I can swap out with my broken one      OR
    B) Buy a new LCD/LED screen and Display housing
    I am leaning towards option B because the cost to replace the LED display is much cheaper but I am having no luck finding a relatively cheap, non damaged 2009 15' Display Housing. Some online stores that do sell it go for ridiculously high which in the end would make option A cheaper. I don't actually need to replace the Display Housing for the computer to work but I can't stand to look at the dent so I'll be doing the replacement.
    So back to my original question. When searching for parts or an entire Display Assembly, would more recent models such as 2010, 2011, 2012 or 2013 parts be compatible with mine? Or were all models created differently and must be replaced with same year/model parts?

    Yes.  Any 2.5" 9.5 mm thick SATA HDD, SSHD or SSD will fit and be compatible with your MBP.
    Ciao.

  • HP pavilion dv6000 with windows 7 64 bit has no sound after disassembl​ed.

    Hello there,
    I have an HP Pavilion dv6000 and after i disassembled and reassembled it to clean the fan, the lap top has no sound. In the device manager an error on ''PCI bus9, Device 9, function 2 & 3'' was appeared but after i installed new drivers the errors was fixed and it was written that the device was working properly. but unfortunately the device is not working properly because i stills have no sound. I also disassembled and reassembled for second time to find out if the problem was minor like an unplugged cable but everything was completely fine. Operation system: Windows 7 64 bit.  Can someone please tell me what to do?

  • HP Pavilion dv6000 Hard Drive Upgrade Question

    Hello all, and thank you in advance for your advice.
    I own an HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop.  It came with a Western Digital Scorpio WD800BEVS (80GB 5400rpm 8MB 2.5" SATA 1.5Gb/s) hard drive installed.  This drive finally failed after making funny noises for about 14 months, and I'm looking to replace/upgrade as the computer itself is still in good condition.  Thankfully I back everything up on an external, so nothing was lost.
    I understand that a faster drive (7200rpm) will run a bit warmer, and draw power more quickly.  Power is not a concern, I rarely run the laptop without AC attached.  Anybody have an idea how much warmer a 7200rpm drive would run?  Would this be an issue on an older computer where the fans may not be as efficient as they were when new?  I do keep the vents clear and clean, so air flow should not be impeded.
    What I want:
    1) I'd like to upgade to more volume.
    2) I'd like to upgrade for speed as I frequently use the computer for photo editing (up to 18MB images using PhotoMechanic, Photoshop, Lightroom, Bridge, Noise Ninja).  I'm thinking 16MB cache and 3.0Gb/s internal would help with this.  Any downsides or compatibility issues with those upgrades on the dv6000?
    3) I intend to re-install the Windows XP Home OS that came with the machine, do the updates, and strip out all the HP/Windows extras.  Not about to purchase a new OS.
    4) Haven't checked prices yet, but I'm fairly certain it only has 1GB of RAM at the moment.  Will likely max that out to 2GB.
    A quick search on Newegg brought up dozens of drives that appear to work with the dv6000.
    Right now I'm between this Western Digital Scorpio Black WD5000BEKT 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s
    $75 with 5-year warranty
    And this Seagate Momentus 7200.4 ST9500420AS 500GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache 2.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s
    $65 with 3-year warranty
    Will the dv6000 accept a SATA-II drive without issues?
    The original part is $45 on Amazon with comparable prices elsewhere.
    Any advice on which drive to go with (especially if you've used them personally) would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!!
    ***edit***
    Additional information:
    Looking at the label, my laptop is an HP Pavilion dv6500, CNF74143HW, AMD Turion 64 X2 and nVidia graphics.
    Also, I was mistaken, it came with Windows Vista Home Premium, not XP, so I will be reinstalling with Vista HP.
    The RAM is HP 449929-001, it has 2x 1GB sticks already installed, not sure if this is the max or if it can take 3 or 4 GB and actually use it.

    You don't give us the exact model of the dv6000 series you have but if it is an AMD processor and the model number is equal to or lower than dv6499 I would be concerned about any extra heat. If you have the Intel version I would be less concerned. The fact of the matter is that the newest SATA-II laptop hard drives draw less power and put out no more heat than before so a current 7200 rpm model would not be any hotter or draw any more power than the 80 gig you have now. However, that model series of laptops has been plagued with unexplained issues with all 7200 rpm drives and all 500 gig drives. I have been telling people here for quite some time that the optimum, low risk upgrade is to a 320 gig 5400 rpm drive.
    You want more speed. A SATA-II drive will work fine but obviously will adjust down to a SATA-I connection. You do not lose much because the difference is only in max burst speed which is rarely attained anyway. I have personally installed 7200 rpm drives in dv6000 laptops and have not had a problem. I have not installed a 500 gig drive. My advice to you is to find a 320 gig 7200 rpm drive and look for one with a 16 or 32 meg cache rather than an 8 meg cache.I have also not tried one in a dv6000 but you might want to consider a 320 gig SATA hybrid drive. They cost a bit more but will be the fastest non-SSD drive you can buy:
    hybrid drive
    not hybrid
    Good luck. There is a small risk of issues with a 7200 rpm drive but I think you will be OK. Keep in mind installing XP takes some special steps, all covered here on this Forum in the XP downgrade guide.

  • No sound device - HP Pavilion dv6000: p/n: KB354EA#UUW.

    Hello.
    My fathers HP Pavilion dv6000 suddenly lost it's sound. When i try to press the sound-icon on the bottom (next to the clock) i it tells me that aren't registered any hardware changes, and when i hold the mouse over it, it says that there isn't installed a sound-output-device.
    I'm not really smart on computers, so I was hoping that you guys could help me.
    Thanks!

    Hi
    You have a couple of options as I see it.
    Go to device manager and uninstall the Sound driver and restart and unit will install the driver automatically.
    Try doing System restore to the date when the unit was working fine.
    Try to update the driver from hp.com website for Audio & Bios.
    Let us know how it goes!

    Hi again Al259,
    Thank you for the quick reply!
    If you are not able to successfully restore to a previous working point on your desktop, I recommend performing a backup and recovery of your operating system. This can be done by following the steps in this resource on Backing Up Your Files (Windows 8), as well as Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 8). This should return your system back to factory defaults.
    If the issue persists, please call our technical support at 800-474-6836 for your in-warranty replacement options. If you live outside the US/Canada Region, please click the link below to get the support number for your region.

    Please identify your notebook with the product name (p/n). It should be on the barcoded sticker on the bottom of your notebook or in the HP Support Assistant.
    What you probably need is to install the chipset drivers. You can find them at the drivers & software download section of the HP web support portal for your notebook. Install the drivers that match your installed operating system.
