    Is there a way to configure the output of a DV4000 to render HD output via Component Vidio or DVI or HDMI to an HD capable TV set?

    If there's not an internal configuration option, is there an external USB or PMCCIA card option that would do this?

    Thanks!

    There isn't an internal option, since the video out options are VGA and S-Video. I don't know about an extrenal box, though. Is there something that steps VGA up to HD? That'd be what you want, since a USB or PCMCIA option would not be connected to your graphics card... it'd have to have a graphics processor of its own, which sounds crazy-expensive!
