I got a HP Pavilion DV6000 with AMD processor. I just reformetted it and reinstalled a fresh XP. After xp installed, I tried to install chipset (NVIDIA nForce Chipset Driver and Network Controller which i downloaded from hp websit: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?os=228&lc=en&cc=us&lang=en&dlc=en&product=1842155) but after the nvidia logo shown, the installation bar was loaded to about 90%, it disappeared. there was no installation successful or completed such indication like that. apparently the installation failed. and i tried to intall Nvidia Graphics driver, it gave me this error: "the nvidia setup could not locate any drivers that are compatiable with your current hardware. setup will now exit". Same happened to the wireless driver.
So far, I've just installed audio and modem. still got ethernet, wireless, SM bus and video controller left. BTW, the BIOS update prompted that "the bios is not for your pc" ??? I really dont know what's going on. my model is Pavilion DV6000, and what i downloaded was HP Pavilion dv6000 CTO Notebook PC. are these the same?
Anyway, if anyone has any suggestions or experience, please let me know.
Thanks in advance!

Is this a dv6000 with the Nvidia 430/Geforce Go 6150/7200 or the dv6500 & newer with the Nvidia 7150M/8400 series. both laptops will have dv6000 label on the notebook but actually use different hardware.
If it is the former then try the drivers from Nvidia's website for the chipset and laptopvideo2go for the GPU(make sure you get the modded inf as well). -
he said that
"SMBus inf edit:
I opened up the SMBus\nvsmbus.inf file, and saw a large list of Hardware ID's under the [NVIDIA_SYS] section. I copied and pasted the last line of this section, and changed it to read:
%PCI\VEN_10de&DEV_01b4.DeviceDesc% = AMD_NO_DRV, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0542
The way I came up with the new last four digit #'s, was to go into device manager, double-click on the unknown device "SMBus...", click on the "Details" tab, and scrolled through the first 3 options. I found that under the "Compatible Ids" area, a very similar id existed, and I just needed to change the last 4 (3 really) digits of the new line I had just made to 0524 (from 0446)."
I did change the last 4 digit as he did 0542 and 0524 both no luck. What I found from Compatible Ids are:
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27DA&REV_02
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27DA
PCI\VEN_8086&CC_0C0500
PCI\VEN_8086&CC_0C05
PCI\VEN_8086
PCI\CC_0C0500
PCI\CC_0C05
and from Hardware ids:
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27DA&SUBSYS_30BB103C&REV_02
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27DA&SUBSYS_30BB103C
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27DA&CC_0C0500
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_27DA&CC_0C05
I've tried:
%PCI\VEN_10de&DEV_01b4.DeviceDesc% = AMD_NO_DRV, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0500
still no luck
So, any suggestions? thanks -
