Sirs:
I have been playing with driver issues for HP dv series for several weeks. I have swapped with a user an HP dv6000 series for an HP dv9000 series. Both have the AMD Turion and the nForce chipset for hardware support.
The first blatant issue: Since HP ( unofficially ) supports W7 on the dv6000 series, why not support OFFICIALLY both the dv6000 and dv9000 series? These laptops use the same chipsets!
I have downloaded ALL the nForce chipset drivers. I am attempting to make a matrix of what drivers WORK PROPERLY for the dv6000 and dv9000 series I have in my possesion after I rework the BGA video problems HP and nVidia caused. Bad PR move, people!
Problems encountered using your " fix " : Ethernet port, DVD burner and coprocessor NOT WORKING.
A partial fix: dv6000 series nForce drivers worked to fix the DVD burner not being seen on the dv9000.
I might have more solutions when I fill out the matrix.
( this msg is being written from the dv9000 running Windows 7. None of the drivers support the coprossesor and that along with the poor heatsink design makes a cooling pad a must )
P.S. ALL drivers from Vista give you the " unsupported driver " message and terminate. HP engineers COULD fix this problem, but choose not to. The nVidia site says " go back to your computer support site ".
I don't like driver Catch-22. Especially from the HP-TITES....

I'm having the exact same issue. Coprocessor drivers can't be located, ethernet port does not work, speakers are not detected. I have a HP pavilion dv9500, I installed Win 7 64-bit after my orginal HD crashed, it worked for 7 months flawlessly, then these issues arose over the past week. I have no idea what to do.

I am testing the official Windows 7 release, but the Nvidia driver is not compatible.
Where can I get a hold of a windows-7 compatible driver?
Nvidia site said I must contact HP, but can't find a win7 version anywhere on the HP site
is it hidden somewhere or about to be released?
thanks
