The HP Pavilion dv1000 was a model series of laptops manufactured by Hewlett-Packard Company that featured 16:10 14.1" or 14.3" diagonal displays.
Overview
[edit]The HP Pavilion dv1000 series was a series of "thin and light" widescreen laptops featuring a black and silver finish. They were marketed towards home and small business users. The laptops measured 13.1 in (330 mm) wide, 1.2 in (30 mm) deep, 9 in (230 mm) thick, and weighs 5.26 lb (2.39 kg). Several different models and revisions of the motherboard were available, which included Intel (single or dual core) or AMD CPUs, and IDE or SATA hard drives.
The following CPUs (and chipsets) were available:
- Intel Pentium M and Celeron M Banias and Dothan (855 and 910 chipsets)
- Intel Pentium Dual-Core, Core Solo, Core Duo (later models from 2006 onwards with 945 chipsets)
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 (nForce 4 or nForce 600 chipsets)
All models of this laptop series (as well as many other laptops in the HP Pavilion laptop line at the time) came with HP QuickPlay, which has the ability to boot into a dedicated environment for multimedia use without booting into the operating system.[2] On models preinstalled with Windows Vista, the QuickPlay boot option was removed due to compatibility issues, but can still be accessed from within Windows via a separate application.
Manufacturing
[edit]Quanta Computer Inc., an original design manufacturer (ODM), manufacturers the hardware, motherboard, and design of the dv1000 series of laptops alongside the dv4000, dv5000, and dv8000 series (and later the dv2000, dv6000, and dv9000 series). Quanta also manufactures the HP Pavilion ze2000 series, Compaq Presario ze2000 and V2000 series, and HP Compaq nx4800 series of laptops in cooperation with HP, which were equivalent clones of the dv1000 series. This was a common practice by many other brands of the era.
Problems
[edit]The dv1000 series may have a problem with the laptop's battery charging/internal power system, where the notebook will not receive DC power when plugged in.[3] This issue has not yet been resolved.
