I have a close cousin to yours, a dv9608nr. I have been able to locate the nVidia GeForce Go 7150M video driver, the built in web-cam driver, the Synaptics Touchpad driver and the Broadcom 802.11 wireless driver. I am still looking for the nVidia nforce motherboard drivers and Conexant HD audio / soft modem drivers. Let me know if you need the ones I have.
These are two completely different machines_Ged's is Intel processor,Jonathan's is AMD.Jonathan can use the drivers in link above posted by Steve Huffer.
----------------------- Ged's Pavilion dv9590ez XP drivers.
Intel Chipset,(install and reboot before other drivers):
Wow! I now have everything except the "High Definition Audio Soft Modem" working. Fantastic progress.
The hardware ID is a
HDAUDIO\FUNC_02&VEN_14F1&DEV_5045&SUBSYS_103C30CF
To be honest, it's not all that important, it's more of a last straw. I would entertain suggestions however. Thank you very much for your excellent assistance getting me this far.
Download, and unzip the modem driver file: sp35335.exe Under the [ControlFlags] section of the WinXP\SprtHD5m.inf file, I added the following hardware id: ExcludeFromSelect= HDAUDIO\FUNC_02&VEN_14F1&DEV_5045&SUBSYS_103C30CF
AND under the [HSF_MODEM] section of the WinXP\SprtHD5m.inf file, I added the following hardware id: %HSFModem% = ModemX, HDAUDIO\FUNC_02&VEN_14F1&DEV_5045&SUBSYS_103C30CF
After editing the inf file, go through the same "upgrade driver" process, be sure you point to the correct directory manually if you have to. This should solve the remaining "unknown device" issue.
Drivers from DV9000z cto series should work on your model for missing drivers.
For audio, you need MS UAA,with a reboot before Conexant Audio and Modem drivers.HP Quick Launch,Ricoh Media Card Reader,AMD Update,etc are all here.(Do not use a bios,chipset or graphics)
THESE DRIVERS ARE FOR WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL SP2 x86 (32bit WinXP)

How did people go about installing XP? I've spent time integrating the chipset and storage drivers into an XP3 install CD, but whenever I boot the XP installer, I get a message saying that there is no hard drive on the system. I could pull the hard drive and install to it from another computer, but I wanted to know if there were a way to get around this problem from the get go.
