How is massive systemic failure not covered by warranty?  Did you run the damn thing under a down comforter or something?

Just give gateway a call. Doesn't hurt. If they replace for free, go for it. If they try to charge you. Give up. The laptop is basically a lost cause anyways. (Could be a mobo issue like me too. Overheated, short circuited... etc.) But mine was replaced for free.

Be careful with that dv6000 too.  Those are also known to overheat.  The solder under the GPU likes to pull away from the motherboard causing artifacts on the screen before it dies.  Same thing that causes the Xbox red ring of death.

I have a dv9000 in my closet that this happened to(same innards just slightly larger screen.)
