With this illustrated disassembly guide you’ll be able to take apart a HP Pavilion dv5000 laptop and remove the system board. The main reason for removing the system board is accessing and replacing the cooling fan witch is located on the bottom side of the system board.
Sequence showing an HP DV5000 Laptop being dismantled. The process is aimed at the rotten Sunon GC055515VH fan, which had become horribly noisy, rattling on its spindle.
There is no easy access to the cooling fan from the bottom of the HP Pavilion dv5000 series laptop, you’ll have to take the whole thing apart.
In the step 3 you’ll have to remove all screws from the bottom. I believe the author forgot to mention that in his description.
You can use this disassembly guide for removing and replacing DVD drive, keyboard, LCD assembly, system board and other major laptop components.
The cooling fan is a part of the heat sink assembly witch could be found here for less than $25.
Here are other spare parts for a HP Pavilion dv5000 series laptop.

Kyle,
Could be motherboard failure.

I tried the top RAM stick, and it did not help, and the boittom one will not move.
The Harddrive is not the problem, and I’ve tried TWO hard resets and it didn’t help.
The thing’s been dead for 6 years.

Kyle,
Possible memory failure.
Try removing memory modules one by one. One of the modules could be defective.
If you have only one module, try replacing it with a new one.

I have an HP Pavillion dv5000, initially it lost its sound abrupptly, then a few days later it came back on, then it lost the sound again except this time instead of coming back on again, I could not turn the lap top off. nothing on the keyboatd works, it is locked up! when I close the screen, with about one inch open the screen goes off, but it stays on.
So help ! what is going on?? and how I can fix it?
thank you.

Andrei,
This could be memory related failure.
Do you have two memory modules installed in the laptop? Try removing them one by one and test the laptop with each memory module installed into different slots. It’s possible removing the failed memory module will fix the problem.
If you have only one memory module installed, try replacing it with a known good module.

I need help regarding my laptop. If it is plugged it and booted from there, the media buttons light up for 1/8 of a second and it shuts off. It dosen’t do anything at all from battery.
Any suggestions?

Ok, so my dv5000 died about 3 yrs. ago, but i’ve kept it around in the hopes of fixing it someday. it basically gets stalled from completely powering up. when i push the power button, the media buttons light up (volume, dvd, etc), then the fan starts up then dies within 2 secs. and that’s all that happens. any clue on what the issue might be? thanks.
fyi, i’ve followed your instructions on taking it apart and found nothing obviously wrong.
