If you had looked on the original post, I have begun organizing the driver entries into a table-based format. This allows the original post to contain more useful information, as suggested by the users here on NBR. It is not yet finished, but it should be complete soon.
I'm also announcing that future updates to the original post will be phasing out Windows XP drivers due to the fact that it is no longer in mainstream support (and now, Windows 7 has been released). In the future, users who still need Windows XP drivers can simply post in this thread for a request, and a link if one exists will be provided in subsequent reply posts. -
New digitally signed NVIDIA graphics drivers are out and up on the original post. Remember to remove all previous versions of the driver first before installing this new version.

I have a dv4t 1413tx laptop. I formatted my HDD and reinstalled with Win 7. Everything is working great. Thanks everyone who have contributed towards this thread. There is one minor problem though. The volume control and the mute/unmute buttons are all touch sensitive buttons. When I tap the mute/unmute button, it mutes/unmutes. But the problem is, when the sound is on mute, the light used to be red previously. Right now it remains white whether its on mute or unmute. So, there is no visual confirmation about the muting process. Am I missing any of the drivers here that I should be installing?

Quite a bit of stuff updated over the past couple weeks. It took a while to get everything straightened out but it got done.
Here is a list of the most recent edits to the original post -- thanks to everyone who helped out!
12/12/2009
- Updated IDT High Definition Audio Codec driver to version 6.10.6249.0 (thanks lovegl).

- Updated Intel Chipset Device Software to version 9.1.1.1025 (thanks lovegl).
I now added simple instructions on how to run the Intel Chipset Device Software using the -overall parameter. Please see the Important Information section for details (really, it's now much easier).

i just updated teh idt sound driver and was hoping if anyone knew how to disable the beeping sound of when the volume is being adjusted?
-
Surprisingly, the wifi button also works in a similar fashion. When the Wi-Fi is ON, the button is white, and when it is OFF, the button light is red (which is normal). I am confused as to why it is not happening with the volume button. Also, previously, when I increased or decreased the volume, a visual used to come up on the screen. That is not happening now. Maybe, the driver for this will sort out both the problems.
Finally, I installed the touchpad driver, but the scroll on the touchpad is not working. Should I install a separate driver for that? -

@lovegl: The original post already has these versions, so there is no real need to update the links (except for the Bluetooth).

There has been some major updating going on in the original post. Part of the reason why is that I am now supporting the new HP dv4i and Compaq CQ41 Intel-based notebooks! So, welcome dv4i and CQ41 notebook users, and I hope that this resource will be a valuable one for those who own one of these notebooks.
I am not done with updating the original post (as evidenced by the Broadcom update lovegl mentioned above). Please check back frequently as I continue on working and improving these threads.
01/24/2010
- Added support for HP Pavilion dv4-21xx (dv4i) and Compaq Presario CQ41.
- Added BIOS for dv4-21xx and CQ41 version F.06 A.

- Updated Broadcom Wireless LAN driver to version 5.60.48.18.

If you are having problems with the Intel Turbo Boost driver, please uninstall it and wait for the next release (which will hopefully fix the issues). -
