What format you're trying to play? Windows Media Player cannot play?

@SRLee
I'm not sure whats wrong, your HDD to laptop copying speed seem more realistic and show that USB 3.0 is working. Can try to reinstall the USB 3.0 driver from HP website?

@louisfjh
Ok.. if you have any codec pack installed, try to remove it first.
Then install Real Alternative Lite 2.0.2 and Media Player Classic-Home Cinema. Don't forget to reset setting when u install MPC-HC.

got auto download subtitle also

My media player settings:

download from here

k-lite mega codec pack

k-lite mega codec pack x64
*I am not sure that the x64 work a not but i found out that i don't really have any problem playing any kind of video*

If you have real player installed, uninstall it

1) go to Start > search for regedit.
2) Inside regedit go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\RealPlayer 12.0
3) delete the whole RealPlayer 12.0 key.

then install RealAlternative 2.0.2 from here.

I think this will solve the audio problem for some people that are playing rmvb file without audio.

but i seems to have problem playing some flv files.. currently googling out the problem. any sifu here want to help me on this?    some flv can play using evr but some can't.. so when i play with flv files, i need to use haali.. hmm..

Uninstall every codec/player you have install.
Clean the registry using CCleaner.
Then just install MPC-HC and Real Alternative.

If still hang, check when the movie is playing, is there [DXVA] on the bottom MPC-HC?

Ok my USB 3.0 is settled then.

Here's a guide for future owners that are having the same issue as mine, i.e. slow transfer speed via USB 3.0 ports.

1. Run "Device Manager" from start-menu.

2. Locate and expand "Universal Serial Bus controllers" (mine was last in the list).

3. See what USB 3.0 host controller/root hub your laptop is using.

4. Download your driver here:

Renesas Electronics
Fresco Logic
NEC Electronics

*Mine is using Renesas Electronics' controller. I think every dv6-6114TX have the same controller but I put up all 3 I could find just in case.

5. Recheck your speed!

Whats the difference between 6001TX and 6114TX?

Uninstall every codec/player you have install.
Clean the registry using CCleaner.
Then just install MPC-HC and Real Alternative.

I might be getting this offer, it sounds like a good deal to me. however does that mean after the free hp 4GB DDR3 1333 Mhz memory, the RAM space becomes 8GB? or is it still just 4GB?

hi guys, i got line issue on my screen while i playing movie...i installed CCC v11.7...should i revert to 11.5b? Thanks!

Square square can be video quality problem..

Just finished reapply thermal paste.. and the result is quite good. 
Before with IntelBurnTest my max temps could reach 93c, now only 86c altho its night time.


I think you should send your unit to HP SC already.    Or try to do a fresh install.
You should use any driver that works best for you.

Don't think HP would do so in 3 am

you could try to install Splayer.Simple player with built in codecs!

Thats weird.. what RMVB format u trying to play? Got any link for me to dl?

I think i know what is louis's problem. Its not the player's fault. Its the file! Please try playing with another file and confirm the pixelation. cause i got 1 ahem video that keep getting pixelated and another normal video that is fine. I keep getting frustrated that my ahem video can't be played. By copying again a fresh copy from my desktop, the video is playing fine already. My guess is that there is lost/corrupted data because I used external HDD to transfer at first but second time I used the LAN to transfer.

btw, Acid

did you done any ESD precaution when handling the proc and gpu? If the thermal paste is really not that good. Might be changing mine too this weekend. you said IC7 is good? what is best? for how much? *lazy to search* haha.

Install this.

have you done the instruction I mentioned before ?
When you play the MKV, can you right click the MPC, Filters, give screenshot of what it have.

I mean open the option and disable dxva in internal filter.

louisfjh.. what gpu using??

better than mine so impossible u can't play & lag 1.. u missing binary code

    Download the Windows version of binary codec pack for MPlayer.
    http://www.mplayerhq.hu/design7/dload.html#binary_codec
    (filename = windows-essential-20071007.zip)
    Extract only these files from the ZIP archive:
    cook.dll, pncrt.dll, sipr3260.dll, drv33260.dll, drv43260.dll
    Put those files in the Windows system folder.
    That is C:\Windows\System32\ on a 32-bit version of Windows.
    That is C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ on a 64-bit version of Windows.
