HP dv2700 "Blank Screen"

Hello everyone,

I had this HP dv2700 laptop since 2008. It's been working well ever since, though it heats up really fast and the fan in the back spins irregularly (without a constant speed). Yesterday, I turned my laptop on, and the screen remained completely blank. The power button and the keyboard light up, but nothing is on the screen.

Can please someone tell me what's going on, and how I can fix this problem? Are other HP dv2700 users having the same problem. This symptom seems to be common among other dv2xxx's and dv6xxx's, but whatever reason this model that I have isn't covered by HP Warranty Enhancement Program. :/

Configuration: Windows XP
Internet Explorer 7.0

Hi

I saw your problem, i dont know if you have fixed it. But if you have not, i can tell you that i have the same problem, but i have 4 screens. You have to get your motherboard replaced. Hope that gave answer a answer if you have problems.

Hi,

I have HP Pavailion 2700 CTO and had the same problem and i contacted HP Customer care and they got it repaired for me.

I don't see any reason why it isn't covered by HP warranty.

I have an HP dv2700, and lately the computer starts until about 5 minutes then the screen freezes and random colored lines appear vertically up and down my screen. The screen remains unresponsive. Has anyone had this problem?

I am facing the same problem with my DV2700. Did you get your problem fixed. Please let me know as i am not in a position to afford another laptop or any costly repairs offered by HP.

Actually what you all have is probably the nVidia graphics card. 8600M GS, these cards are manufacturing defects and suffer from Overheating which ultimately leads to failure. I myself have the dv2700 and randomly the screen would go blank. I would have to hardshut the computer or reboot in some way to get the screen back. However I've read up on it and sooner or later the GPU will just fail all together.

this site: http://www.hplies.com

Shows some information on certain nVidia graphics cards that are also affected. As well helping you get your laptop repaired. Goodluck in getting it fixed!

I repeat, this is a defect caused by your Graphics card from nVidia!!

I have the same problem, overheating and blank screen; it seems like a very common problem. the hp case manager told me that this problem is not on the defect list and therefore they will not cover it after my warranty expired. (warranty expired 3 weeks ago)



I live in Australia/Sydney and not too sure how to report this defect, is there some similar website to the www.hplies.com that deals with Australian complaints and references?
