    Hello,

    I have the DV9000 series Laptop. It is the DV9235NR model (but not the DV9200 series...shows DV9000 on the bottom).

    Anyways...I decided to try to upgrade the interal wireless G with a wireless N card that is from HP. It has the HP part number and everything. When I put the card in, this error comes up. I read that the bios doesn't recongnize the card. I took the card out, booted up to Windows with my old wireless card, put the computer in sleep mode, took out the old card and put the new card in. Works perfect. I know the card it good.

    How can I make the new card work without having to do this? I heard about a bios hack. How is this done? Could I modify the Wifi card also? I did update to the newest bios on my laptop (dated 2008) and that didn't work. How about a bios from another series laptop?

    Thanks.

    I have exactly the same problem with my HP DV8 Pavilion and HP think I'm pulling their leg?

    My Primary HDD also failed within the first week!

    HP did try to help by uninstalling some services and reinstalling others but it came back within a day?

    The other day I was restarting and just got a deep blue, then red, then green, then gray scale series of colors flashing on my screen? I could only get the computer to work by taking out the battery?

    It's a good computer but has some serious malfunctions?

    HP please help.
