    Looks like mine is on the blink. I have a dv9000 model, had it for just about a year now. For the part week, after x amount of time after being turned on it will crash to a screen of garbage, messed pixels etc. I manually turn it off by the switch, and then have trouble getting it to start again (sometimes i turn it on but it merely tries to boot with no evidence of doing so on the monitor.)

    I have tried to run the startup repairs twice now, once it even crashed during. Any help would be absolutely fantastic. If possible I wish to get this solved.

    Thanks for the help.
