The dv7 is hp's 17 inch lcd media notebook/laptop/desktop replacement. Features like hdmi, e-sata, and beautiful 17" LCD make it one nice looking and performing laptop. This dv7 came in my shop with no signs of life. Plugging in the power cord and manipulating it in any direction would not get it to power up but the owner reports it worked on battery until that drained.
The dv7 uses a cable style dc jack that plugs into the motherboard vs. the traditional soldered on jacks.
After replacing the jack the laptop powers up and charges the battery!
