Just keeps restarting over and over again
This can be a number of faults, your battery being flat and mains power pack has failed, your power on switch has built up an accumulation of carbon deposits usually found on frequent button pressing similar to joypads. Check your Ac supply and battery, it could be as a previous discussed screen fault
First step: Clean up the air vents (inlet and outlet) and the fan. You can use canned air to clean it up.
Second step: Use Windows media (DVD) to reinstall the operating system (it will fix the boot up problem).
If the problem persist: use a good working hard drive and install the operating system from scratch.

reconstructive boot, you mean, like a recovery boot? you'll need a recovery disk.

SOURCE: HP Pavilion ZD8000 vertical lines issue
Hi,
In answer to your question. It may be a screen problem. as the screen has a Matrix of vertical and horizontal line configuration.
I,d suggest trying the laptop/computer on an external monitor or screen. if it works fine on an external. then it could be assumed that the TFT Panel or invertor has a fault.
if the picture/display still has vertical lines on an external monitor, then the fault may lie, with the Mainboard.
Process of elimination, before spending any Money :)

you need to remove the front screen bezel (remove the screws and unsnap the cover)
then unplug the Pink and White Power Plug to the LCD Bulb..... Also Unplug the Display cable Plug from the other end of the inverter... Unscrew the inverter from the screen and remove/replace
SOURCE: i can not turn on wireless to my hp pavilion
You have a number of options:
1. Make sure the wireless switch is in the "on" position. This means that the switch is slid to the right. If it is, and the light is blue, then the wireless is working just fine, you just need to connect to a wireless router. However, if the light remains orange...
2. If you have Vista, go into the start menu and right click on "Computer" (XP, right click on "My Computer" on the desktop or where ever you stashed it) and click on "Manage" in the drop down menu. After you do this, you will see a menu on the left, double click on Device Manager (6th item down). This will open another list of items. You need to go to "Network Adapters". This drop list will tell you whether or not the wireless card is being detected. Should say something like "Broadcam 802.11 b/g WLAN". If you see that, the computer is detecting the wireless card and your wireless should be working (however, if it is detecting it and the wireless light is still orange, check the switch again, if it is switched on, then you are about to have a motherboard problem). If the wireless card is not being detected...
3. You either have a HDD, wireless card, or motherboard problem (more often than not it is the motherboard, and you would be hard pressed to find one cheap). If you want to simply try to replace the cheaper parts first and hope that works, start with the wireless card, then go into the HDD, after that, obviously, the motherboard. But I will tell you from experience, that it is more often than not, a defective motherboard.
