I brought this laptop on 2007 July they gave me 1 year warranty and the laptop got this prob on August, i was playing COD4 in da server and suddently i got a error message that "Display drivers stopped working", and the screen went white, then i restarted it when the windows started a message poped up " Your display drivers have been recovered ",then i started COD4 again after playin for 5 mins da same error came and screen went white, so i restarted it again but this time when i started and worked for 1 mins and da screen went Whity, so i turned off the pc and started it after 2 hours, but it didnt start it gave me white screen every time i on the laptop,

you can ask me " Why are you seeking our help, you should consult da hardware specialist xD, but the prob is my father doesnt know that i broke this pc,if he finds out that i broke da 2000$ laptop by playing games non stop, he'd kill me for sure, so i just need to know whether itz a minor problem like driver software prob or major prob like VGA burnout, i attached a video of the laptop and itz prob.

You cannot tell whether the prob is big or small by just looking at it.

btw i dont see the bios screen( first screen with company logo ) as well, is it normal or it also is not showing??
 
from thefacts you have put in, it indeed and unfortunately looks like a dying vga chipset...

also, if you hit the white screen even before the POST and the system can't even access the BIOS, it is indeedy a hardware issue

When i start the laptop randomly sometimes luckily it goes up to desktop then within 2 mins the white screen of death appears but it only happens 1/50 ,ya sometimes it shows da company logo and windows starting ..thatz why i'm not sure whether itz a driver prob or hardware prob.
 
I just found - Just like Dell, HP has decided to issue a BIOS fix for laptops that feature potentially faulty Nvidia chips. HP has also gone a step further, covering affected notebooks with a "limited warranty service enhancement" that's valid for two years from the start of the regular warranty coverage period.The official HP information page lists 24 notebooks in the HP Pavilion dv2000/dv6000/dv9000 and Compaq Presario V3000/V6000 series

For more infoHP issues fixes, updates warranty for Nvidia chip issues - The Tech Report

Thanks for the help guyz , further information abt this problem would be thankfull <3
