The HP Pavilion dv2000 was a model series of laptops manufactured by Hewlett-Packard Company that featured 16:10 14.1" diagonal displays.

The two or three letter suffix on the model number indicates special information like country or language (dv----xx).

The dv2000t sub-brand uses Intel CPUs, generally Intel Core Solo, Core Duo and Celeron, while the dv2000z uses AMD CPUs, generally AMD Turion and Sempron.

[2] Quanta Computer Inc. and Wistron, which are original design manufacturers (ODM), manufacturers the hardware, motherboard, and design of the dv2000 series of laptops alongside the dv6000 and dv9000 series (as well as other HP laptops made by HP at the time).

Quanta and Wistron have also manufactured their equivalent Compaq Presario-branded models, which were different in design but using similar hardware.

Many of these issues were caused by overheating, a common problem with many of these HP laptops of this timeframe (as well as other manufacturers).
