    You wont be able to find info on the motherboards on most laptops. The MB on the dv1000 was most probably designed/built by Quanta and you wont see a listing for that in MBM5. If you want to monitor temperature & system settings then Centrino Hardware Control or Mobile Meter are known to be the most reliable.

    Or try Notebook Hardware Control 1.09b. DV1000 may use different MB at different time. You better check yours. DV4000 is worse. They changed the MB, power supply, memory, video,.... and still use the same series number.

    The free version of Everest has been discontinued. It can tell, but it is not as reliable as NHC or Mobile Meter.

    The Everest Home is still available and you can also try the Ultimate version with some restriction, but neither one give the same details as in NHC.
