Hi,

Check HP's support site for any driver updates, as that is likely the
biggest problem. The recovery media likely has older version of many files.

Also, as you just did the reformat (accidentally wanted to?), you may have
had a bad install. In such cases it's easiest just to start over.

If you formatted the HD and reinstalled the O/S, then you must go to HP's
site and load software to install on the computer for the dv6000 running
Vista.

So, you destroy the O/S just to get the trial version on Office to run
again? That's a good one.

Not only that, but on an HP dv6000z the trial version is only Office 2007
