HP Pavillion dV6000 will not boot up
I am working on a HP Pavillion dV6000 with XP Multimedia Entertainment on it. When I press the power button nothing happens. I know it is receiving power as the power lcd lights up. I know there is probably a problem with the button itself because if I press the Quick start button next to the power button, all the lights for the features on the DVD player light up for a split second. I have swapped out memory, I have reset the CMOS battery, I haver removed the DVD player, i have removed the power plate and keyboard to reseat all the ribbons. Just want to make sure I covered everything.

No i am not tell you to remove hd and ram, just remove the battery and power adapter.

Check to see if it's (still) covered under the extended warranty. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01087277&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_USEN
Those laptops overheat and damage the BGA solder joints under the Nvidia GPU. HP extended the warranties by 2 years because of the design flaw.
