well, just got my dv4t. 2.8GHz chip. it says dv4t-1000 on the bottom. trying to get XP on, but regardless of which set of AHCI drivers i try i get the 7B BSD.
have tried:
8.2.3.1001 - the one that was first recommended on this thread
8.2.0.1001
8.6.0.1007
the latter two are downloads from other threads regarding the XP upgrade on dv4t.
i've not slipstreamed my XP disk, instead i'm using the F6 -floppy-boot method with an external floppy drive, but i don't know that that should change anything.
what can give? i was optimistic & thought that my dv2700t hard drive would just boot on this one as well, but no such luck.
also - miniPE doesn't boot either - it gets stuck on the winPE screen and never progresses from ther. if it did, i could perhaps put the HD onto a USB enclosure and load up the registry remotely and get some drivers installed. but would still need to know which ones.

let me know if you get your IR-remote & the microphone mini-jack connection working. that's what's not working on mine now.
