HP dv2000 emits 3 beeps and displays blank screen.

25 Comments

I went to turn on my beautiful HP Dv2000 laptop after playing Far Cry 2 and only to be met with 3 beeps and nothing on the screen! Turned off, tried again, still nothing but annoying (and loud!) beeps. So i took it to the HP workshop and it cost me 4.00 for a new Motherboard.

    My laptop is only 2yrs old. I have same problem. Stupid HP/Nvidia. Is there a class action suit on this?

    never use hp custome service, fix it your self with GPU reflow and Copper mod, it will last forever like mine did. :)

    $434 is alot, because motherboard cost about 245 dollars, and installing work should cost maximum 100 dollars. Basically you have paid extra 100 dollars.
    Im having same problem with my laptop. Im concidering in buying new one.

    @f937r Disagree. ASUS are related to Acer, am I right? Well, Acer have AWFUL monitor reliability. My work bought 10 laptops, and within a month, 8 had had to be replaced due to monitor issues.

    However, ASUS might be different – just raising a point!

    That indicates that a video error has occurred and the BIOS cannot initialize the video screen to display any additional information

    @Astroboi64 Not the CPU, the GPU…It is the Graphics Processing Unit. It pretty much gets some of the burden of processing lots of video and stuff off of the CPU to help the computer run faster.

    @SurfinNSilver wat is a cpu? btw how to replace it

    @f937r the laptops might be shat, but there desktops are beatiful, they work like magic… until you pack the hard drive

    @Astroboi64 I could take your comment seriously if it wasn’t written in alternating caps or incorrectly spelled. The argument still stands, though. HP is a horrible computer company and no one should buy the crap they sell.

    @f937r Yeah, thats what I have now is an ASUS laptop with an i5 processor that runs at 2.26ghz and 1gb of GDDR5 video memory. ASUS has good quality hardware because I’v been using motherboards made by them and they seem to be the most reliable.

  • f937r says:

    HP has terrible quality hardware. Word of advice: Do not buy from HP. If you want a reliable windows laptop, go with ASUS.

    The motherboard needs reflowing, the on board graphics can not process video information.. Repair cost: $20-100…. unless you take it to hp Repair with HP: $150-500

    update BIOs replace your video adapter card and get a new GPU with the newer model GPU in it the original GPUs in the motherboard with the DV2000 overheated and screwed up but they fixed the problem. @anontotonona I also use a cooling pad mine works fine now.

  • dudestatus says:

    fixed this by putting the pcb in the oven level on foil balls at 385 for 8 min with all components removed. do not recommend it though. thing broke after 2 weeks and it made the house smell terrible, plus i think the lead based solder may have made my oven poisonous. try a heat gun focused on the gpu instead or the towel method

  • anontotonona says:

    @xiabaka, I had mine for about 5 years now and in that time ive replace my graphic card, my motherboard and the harddrive twice! simply because the computer overheats. I use one of those cooling pads w/ built in fans. but the piece of shit still overheats.
