The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022.

    I've sent a 'link not working' notification with the issue in a couple times, but doubt that does much...

    Well, I guess it wasn't just at my end, made me give up and try another forum. I'll give it another shot. Thanx for the info and help on the op problem, guys. I now understand there's a problem with a bad diode on the DV7z's power board which makes it shut down and that I've got to further investigate.
