    DV2000t looked O.K. in the beginning, but,
    I've got a problem on the screen occasionally.
    The screen image gets broken and whole system function (except power button) gets frozen.
    Check the photos what I've uploaded.

    It usally happens about few minutes later after getting back from sleep mode.
    I have to power off by pressing power key and then it works normal.
    When I checked with HP diagnosis tool (system health), there's no problem reported.
    Any similar cases?

    Hi jcan,
    Don't have a DV2000, but I have seen a similar problem with desktop machines. Try reloading the drivers and check your refresh rate. If that doesn't do it you mght want to call HP as it appears something in the graphics sub-system is messed up.

    My dv2000t doesn't display this problem, but I always use Hibernate rather then sleep function.

    You might give that a try. I find using hibernate is much faster then turning on/off my computer.

    On my previous dv1000t, when I went into hibernation, then woke the computer up, I'd at times no longer be able to connect to the internet, until I rebooted. Don't have that issue with my dv2000t...hibernation works fine.

    On the other hand, if your laptop does have an issue, might be worth talking with HP and getting it fixed while still under warranty.

    For me, whenever my dv2000t wakes up from hibernation, bluetooth connection with my mouse is gone. So, I turned off hibernation and standby options. Dv2000t still has some problems with hibernation.
