Hi! Did you get any improvements since your posted message?!

Take a look in the other DV6000 wireless issue forum:

This is a well documented prob with this series of notebooks and if you do a search on the Internet you'll find lots and lots of unhappy and frustrated people. None of the fixes work and HP tech support is absolutely horrendous. I have wasted hours and hours troubleshooting this issue and dealing with HP's inept tech support to no avail. Replacing the WLAN card and MoBo do not even solve the issue. In addition, there are other well documented issues (Displays going black, continuous beeping noises, not starting, etc) that will most likely crop up over a short period of time from what I've researched. Unfortunately, these notebooks are crap and HP is doing nothing to recall/replace them. Even folks who's notebooks are still under warranty are having huge issues resolving this issue with HP. My warranty expired on my DV6000 a few weeks ago so now I am screwed and stuck with a 13 month old notebook that doesn't work correctly and will most likely have serious additional issues in the near future. I totally regret buying this pc and realize now that I've wasted a lot of money. Along with everyone else who bought this series of notebooks I am extremely dissatisfied with the product and HPâ s lack of support to itâ s customers.

for a list of many symptoms caused by motherboard failure, and laptops affected -- my fury is that altho my model number (dv9000) is covered, only certain pruduct numbers under dv9000 are included, and mine is not one of them! The problem is the motherboard, and the symptoms include loss of bootup, VERY slow bootup, WiFi stops working, etc. Send me an email at john (at) johnfrench.org if you have the symptoms but are not covered by their extension plan. If we join together we can stop their refusal to fix their machines. I spent hours with their call center and all they kept saying (politely, of course) is that my product number is not covered. The repair with shipping is well over $500 and it is because of their crappy motherboards!
