    Hi,

    I almost get the 2 years with my hp laptop (dv7 series) and it suddenly turning orange the wireless, the sound button and the num lock failing.... i need to tap harder the top quicktouch panel in order to get back to life.

    I tried reinstall the drivers but it still happens... is this a sign that the laptop is going to die soon?

    My laptop comes with vista 64 bits and i installed the win7 version, and it has been working pretty good until recently..

    Any ideas ti resolve this?

    Thanks,

    Battery out, AC out. Hold down power button for 30 secs. Batt back in, AC in, power up...

    Usually works. No guarantees though.
