That computer is about 5 years old. Linux works very well with old computers. Takes up less space, uses less processor power to run, and comes with free versions of pretty much everything.
I don't even think a current version of windows will install on a 5 year old Dell. So you'd be stuck with out of date anti-virus and no updates.
See if you can F-11 into your restoration partition. If not you have already deleted the main and secondary partition, all is lost. Remove the drive and hook it up to another PC and see if you can review it. If not start from scratch
You should be able to upgrade the CPU, since it seems that the DV1000's motherboard uses a socket CPU design. But, obviously, HP would rather have you choose the CPU that you want from the beginning and stick with it. The first thing to do is to check HP website to see what other configurations were/are sold for
your model. If they sell it with faster CPUs then you can upgrade to
one of them...
PLEASE NOTE: In order for a particular processor to be compatible with a particular laptop: (1) the processor must be physically compatible with the laptop socket, in your case I thing you have a Soket 479 processor (2) the laptop chipset must support the processor. (3) the chipset front side bus speed must match the processor front side bus speed, in your case 400Mhz. (4) the laptop BIOS must support the processor.
So I listed here processors with FSB at 400Mhz, I gues that DV1000 as a 855GM Motherboard that supports only 400Mhz with Socket 479
Pentium M
Banias Pentium M 1.3 1300 1024 400 Pentium M 1.4 1400 1024 400 Pentium M 1.5 1500 1024 400 Pentium M 1.6 1600 1024 400 Pentium M 1.7 1700 1024 400
Dothan Pentium M 710 1400 2048 400 Pentium M 715 1500 2048 400 Pentium M 725 1600 2048 400 Pentium M 735 1700 2048 400 Pentium M 745 1800 2048 400 Pentium M 755 2000 2048 400 Pentium M 765 2100 2048 400
Celeron M
Banias-512 Celeron M 310 1200 512 400 Celeron M 320 1300 512 400 Celeron M 330 1400 512 400 Celeron M 340 1500 512 400
Dothan-512 Celeron 205 1200 512 400
Dothan-1024 Celeron M 350 1300 1024 400 Celeron M 360 1400 1024 400 Celeron M 370 1500 1024 400 Celeron M 380 1600 1024 400 Celeron M 390 1700 1024 400
Check with your laptop's manual. The wireless switch is usually hidden in a spot that makes it difficult to find, basically so that you cannot hit it by accident.
For example, a Compaq Presario R3000 has a button on the exact left hand corner of the front of the notebook, such that it cannot be seen easily, but when you push it to activate wireless, you will see a very faint light blue icon near the right front button.
On an HP laptop,the wireless button is on the bottom.
On my ACER, there is not button. It is an automatic switch between wire and wireless.
So look carefully for the switch, because if there is such a switch, it will be difficult to find. But it is most likely that there is no switch at all.
see it is bcoz of the bios setup it is not detecting you can do one thig just enter in your bios setting and there is option for sata mode change it native maode disable and save the bios cmos setting come out of it and run the setup it will detect the hdd
