Sorry for late reply. I totally forgot to update about this.
Yes, recovery DVD works on new HDD/SSD. I changed my stock HDD to 160gb intel SSD, ran recovery dvd and choose factory reset. The recovery completely formatted my ssd and installed everything including made a partition for recovery on the new ssd. The laptop is as newly bought dv6 after the process..
With ssd, everything seems instantaneous when i do anything..
Post-recovery pictar..
Congratulation ^.^ So, window ill auto detect driver and replay it? in other word, bios will let those software know that this my hardware. You should know how to do it, recovery software ^.^ Recovery software will ask SSD from Mr.BIOS, oh~ you hving 160Gb, can borrow me 10Gb to me ?
how much is 160Gb SSD ?? want to sell ur HDD ??

For the anivirus, I use Avira on 8 of my computers at home. It is damn good. Can even make it ignore certain files which you know give a false positive.
And you can even make it start only after windows starts so your boot time is faster.
Avira good on throjan ^.^
