Hey!
I have a HP dv9605eo. My problem is, that when windows boots up, it (sometimes) freezes at startup (logo). I thought this might be the case of a bad hard drive. I changed the hard drive, and had the same problem. I then tested the memory to see if that might be the problem, with the BIOS memory test. The test was flawless.
So now I think it might be because of overheating. I am going to open it, and take out some dust, to see if that works.. But i fear that there might be something wrong with the motherboard..
I am also going to check the IDE cable, and I hope its not the motherboard or even the processor, cause those parts are hard to get.
Some helpful input would be nice.
Regards Vetle
