HP Recommended
Product: Pavilion dv2700
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit)

Hello dear supports.

[Product informations]

Full model number: HP Pavilion dv2700 (but on the top of my screen, it says "dv2000" not 2700)

P/N: FF470EA#ABV

dv2999ee

 

[Specs]

Intel Duo CPU T9300

RAM: 2 GB

Graphics: Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS

 

[Questions]

1- Is my laptop dv2000 (on the laptop's screen) or dv2700 (on product information)?

 

2- From what I understood from other topics related to dv2000, it has a faulty graphic chip.

So when the graphic chip reaches a high temperature (example: 90c), screen starts to blink and freezes.

I heard that HP released a BIOS update back then, so that fan runs at 100% all the time to prevent graphic overheating.

* I need that BIOS update so I could somehow revive my laptop.

This one is for AMD processor so I can't use that one.

 

3- I need the latest "8400M GS" driver update compatible with this HP laptop.

I heard that incompatible drivers could also cause overheat and some problems.

 

4- Please tell me some suggestions to have a stable performance for a few years at least.

 

Thank you in advance 😊
