HP Pavilion DV9000 Notebook Review with Drivers Download


I bought the DV9000 laptop computer a few years ago and I thought I'd review it to let others know what to anticipate. It is my first laptop computer, so I cannot compare it to any others, but I'll try to point out the professionals and cons of this computer while mentioning the specs.
The DV9000 has a Mobile AMD Turion 64 Dual Core Processor with one.90ghz speed. I have a desktop computer that has two.8ghz speed, and I don't notice much of a difference between the. However, it appeared to slow down a small bit one time I began to run out of space while saving more things to my hard drive such as videos and pics. It comes with one.00 Ram. The C drive initially has 140GB worth of space available, and one time there was only 2GB worth of space left, it began to run slower. But this might even be because of repeated use and not necessarily because of less space, because by the time I reached only 2GB left, I had already been using the computer for about two years.

HP Pavilion DV9000 Screen:
It comes with a 17 inch widescreen liquid crystal display display. This is it is best feature. It is great for watching movies on. I have nothing negative to say about the display itself. I have seen other laptops in the stores & this appears to be king compared to most models when it comes to the screen display. But I have had major issues with the casing around the monitor. The plastic casing around it's broken in half, so I must be actual cautious when moving the laptop computer around now. This is most likely my fault & not the manufacturers however, because I constantly picked the computer up by it is display area in lieu of holding it at the base or main keyboard area or underside.

HP Pavilion DV9000 NVIDIA Graphic Video Card:
This laptop computer comes equipped with a NVIDIA GeForce Go 7600 Graphic Card. It is splendid when watching movies, but as I ran out of space on the C Drive, this was also affected. Not DVD's a lot, but online streaming videos began to freeze & I would must start the computer over again. This may not be due to the graphic card but the dearth of hard drive space, so I cannot knock the graphics card since it still holds up great when watching DVD movies.

Long Battery buckup
This is where most of my complaints are focused. The battery life of this computer is not so great, when you have the screen on with a bright display. It does have the choice to modify the settings & lower the brightness & performance to save battery power, but it still is not that great. The charger finally broke after two & a half years of use. I haven't replaced it yet, as it broke about a month ago. Fundamentally, I must keep the computer plugged while it is on. If I unplug the charger for even a second, the computer will automatically shut off & power down without saving. So it won't stay charged & always says "charging" while the charger is plugged in, although it never fully charges (or even partially charges). It may be the battery itself, but I suspect it is the charger & not the battery because if I leave the computer on long, the charger becomes hot now & shuts off (there is a blue light when it is plugged in to the computer, so I can tell it is the charger shutting off).
