I have never liked HP notebooks. The company i work for used the for the longest time until we had to switch to a new model and then the problems started. this new model after awhile would start locking up and the only way to get it to work was to apply pressure to either side of the mousepad (usually the side the hard drive was on) some of the had mother boards replaced 3 to 5 times under warrenty but HP said their was nothing wrong with the model we finally got so sick of it when it happened again we would run them over with fork lifts (we had 3 year extended with accidental on all of them.. and at this point mosted exceed that so it was a moot point) so we could get a new model. just last week on of the replacement models had a HD failure (its warrenty will expire in one month) I would never buy a HP laptop. we had purchased at least 12 of them and all have experienced the same failure.

Wait... what do you mean by damaged? o.O Slightly scruffed up chip surfaces, or "hmm, it looks like there's a fissure through this piece of circuit board"

If it really is damaged, why do you even expect it to boot properly?

If it actually is in bootable condition, plenty of linux distros can be installed via PXE boot ;)

lol, this dv6 went in for repair 6 times.

first - out of box issue, clip hiding screen cables loose + wrong BIOS
second - wlan errors re-occuring, constantly blue screening
third - wlan errors re-occuring
fourth - wlan errors re-occuring
fifth - wlan errors re-occuring, charger loose
sixth - HDD spooled, motherboard ram slot #2 friend
seventh - Extended warrenty Policy (recall) mobo replacement, battery replacement

All free thank goodness.
How does a company manage to load the wrong BIOS onto a pc... =.=
