ANOTHER STEP TO INSTALL DV2000 Drivers:

You can simply install all your drivers using the original vista drivers. To do that follow this steps:

1. Download you vista drivers on Hp download page.
2. Install all the original vista drivers, ignore the error because it will extracted the file we need into c:\SWsetup which we will need it later.
3. Open Device manager and right click on device marked with yellow and select UPDATE DRIVERS.
4. Select Browse my computer for....
5. Click browse and point to the SWsetup folder.

Normally it will work, sometimes it will not install the audio and graphic. Both audio and graphic base on my experience need a MOD driver instead of using manual installation above.
