What's the difference between  HP Pavilion dv6-6114TX and HP DV6-6001TX??
*
I suppose that 6114TX has Blu ray drive and 6001Tx has only optical drive.

I think Sager 8130 cost around RM4.8k, shipping included. i7-2630QM, GTX560M, 8GB DDR3-1333, 500GB HDD, no OS.
Is it? I thought since the laptop ship from US, the shipping cost is similar between East Msia and Peninsula. No idea about this.  sweat.gif

I would spend that kind of money if I am freaking into hardcore gaming. Sager laptops are one of the best gaming laptops. The GTX 560M just make me drool.gif drool.gif

I have a bridge in Pulau Pinang that I would like to sell to you...
Anyway, HP has put out a new BIOS update for the dv6-6001tx model.  This update is really useful if you need to turn on hardware virtualization because the previous BIOS took the option completely out.  If you don't know what hardware virtualization is, then you probably haven't come across a situation where you need it: usually only crazy people like me who like to play with Virtual Machines who will be interested in it.

Anyway, the steps to turn on hardware virtualization is as follows:

1) Download the BIOS update (sp53216.exe) and install it.

2) Once it's done installing, your system will restart.  Press F10 to enter the BIOS.

3) Under Advanced Options, look for "Virtualization Settings" or something similar and set it to "Enabled".  The BIOS might complain at you and say that you should only enable it if you need it.  Don't worry; Windows 7 runs fine with it on.

4) Save settings and reboot.  Keep pressing F8 so that you trigger the startup options for Windows.  Once it comes up, just turn off your notebook by pressing the power button.  If you miss the timing and Windows starts up, just Shut Down Windows after it's done loading.

5) Unplug your notebook and leave it alone for 10 seconds.

6) Restart your notebook and boot normally.  Virtualization should now be active.

Steps 4 and 5 are important because sometimes the Hardware Virtualization settings refuse to kick in unless you completely power down the notebook.  If it still doesn't work after doing that, unplug your notebook and remove the battery for at least 10 seconds.

Haha. Sometimes it did happened like that but then it will still keep the program running and you should be able to open back Dirt 3 right?
Sometimes I play LoL, it did happen like that and I just go into the program back and continue from there.
Wonder if that is a common problem for DV6 ? hmm.gif

Yes. I was directing at the notification of the AMD Driver not responding stuff. Sometimes I play online games, I alt+tab out and it hang for awhile then only came out to the desktop. The notification did came out but I still can go in back to the game and continue from where I hanged for awhile earlier. The period of hanging is around 5-7 seconds. What do you think about this or what do you suggest to solve this problem?

hi all,

actually i just get refund from dell coz my laptop studio 1458 had a heating problem. total in my hand now is RM2920/-

i wanna buy laptop for multimedia(photoshop) + lite gaming (PES and NFS Shift).

is it this dv6 is suitable for me? very confius to choose. rclxub.gif  icon_question.gif  b4 this i wanna get N53 but heard many issue about the laptop.

so far is there any issue 4 the dv6? how about batery life? heating problem? thanks biggrin.gif

Hi there, bro. To be honest, you don't really need a 3k laptop for your needs. Get Asus laptop around 2.5 k or 2k. The specs for that kind of range will definitely satisfy your needs bro. Cheers icon_idea.gif

to be honest, I also have almost the same requirement like him..
i use for photo editting.. hahaha... i am a photographer..

but i choose dv6 cos i7.. can last longer.. dun wan change ad

Since you have chosen DV6, I can only say GOOD CHOICE!!
Indeed DV6 have quite a good performance but just to be honest.
Other laptops do have i7 too and RM3k just for photo editing is a little bit too much.
I get DV6 because I need it for After Effects, Cinema4D, hardcore gaming and bla bla.
So I only choose DV6 rather than my second choice of Dell XPS 15.
Just 2 cents of mine.
Get an affordable laptop that can be sufficient for the needs unless you really got more budget to be spent.

thanks for the honest answer.  thumbup.gif  but the design (dv6) poison me.....especially at the glowing logo and the light around the touchpad. haha sweat.gif
coz i heard many issues about the Nseries.
if dv6 have an i5 and price below 3k i will get it 1st.

thanks all. i have to think about it again and wait for a few weeks, wanna study back for the Nseries and dv6. huhu

BTW, If you are going for DV6, I would recommend DV6-6114TX which is almost the same as DV6-6001Tx. The only difference is 6114Tx has blu ray drive and 6001Tx has only optical drive.

Since imma N53SN owners i just had to reply  biggrin.gif
I know that N53SN is slightly longer in 2-3inch but some ppl prefer bigger screen and some ppl prefer smaller screen. Just pointing it out  laugh.gif

Anyway, the reported problems are not that serious at all. All those problems can be fix with a few tweaks. The only serious problems appears when some stupid shop gave free 4gb ram which is not compatible with the default ram. When users insists that the shop change it, they said no stock on Kingston or Corssair ram  doh.gif . Honestly, i think most shop have Kingston ram

For the arrowkeys, most ppl are fine with it. Anyone can get use to a keyboard in just few days. It just take time to adjust.  smile.gif

As for Auto switching, theres some good news.....might be bad for some, AMD is going auto!!!  rclxm9.gif  . It is called AMD PowerXPress 4.0 aka BACON(short for "Bus Alive Chip Off Now!" for now). Most probably AMD will release an update for ur GPU...or it might only be available for future GPU

DAMN!! Awesome update!! drool.gif drool.gif
Hope it release an update for our GPU for now. drool.gif drool.gif

Are u using this Dr Dre solo headset ? if yes,do you find any differents using this headset?

Beats is only good for music listening because it has good bass and nice sound quality. In Malaysia, the price is expensive but in overseas, the price is just affordable. I would suggest getting Beats if you are into music listening. If you are into gaming, you can just take the package without the Beats or take the package with Beats and sell it for around RM600/ 500 at Garage Sales. Currently the lowest price in Garage Sales is RM500 from marcus.
