Hey everyone, should I send my warranty card for Beats headphones to Singapore? Will I get covered by the warranty since I'm in Malaysia.

Also, which of the following programs can be safely uninstalled:

- Energy Star Digital Logo
- ESU for Microsoft Windows 7
- HP 3D DriveGuard
- HP Connection Manager
- HP Documentation
- HP On Screen Display
- HP Power Manager
- HP Quick Launch
- HP Setup
- HP Setup Manager
- HP Software Framework
- HP Support Assistant
- IDT Audio
- Intel® Display Audio Driver
- Intel® Management Engine Components
- Intel® Rapid Storage Technology
- Validity WBF DDK

First thing I did was to create the recovery discs so I think I'm safe to mess up my computer since I can restore it, correct?

Anyway, why is there 88 processes (I removed some) running on my laptop? And why is it taking more than 1 minute 30 seconds to boot my computer? Sometimes it lags too. It shouldn't do that, it's a new computer. ==

download ccleaner, then look for the option to disable some startup programs. disable some that you think you don't need, and hopefully you should notice a better performance.

I never sent my warranty card to Singapore.. should I?

You can uninstall:
- Energy Star Digital Logo
- HP Documentation

Other please avoid uninstalling. Personal opinion as this laptop has quite little bloatware. I might suggest uninstalling Norton and use other Antivirus solutions available. smile.gif

- IDT Audio > Audio Driver
- Intel® Display Audio Driver > Audio Driver too..
- Intel® Management Engine Components > according to here this component is not needed as our proc doesn't have vPro but i think is better to keep for safety purpose.
- Intel® Rapid Storage Technology > SATA Raid controller.. i doubt needed?
- Validity WBF DDK > for fingerprint device

Acid can pin the assembly video to first post? smile.gif

I think might come handy for people later on who wish to:
- change thermal paste
- change blueray driver *i doubt*
- change hdd *very probably*
- remove dust from air duct.

*i noticed that the person in the video is very professionally train in handling the laptop and organised the screws very neatly following original order.. more important step is to that he ground himself to avoid ESD which i think is a very good practice in handling internal electrical component.*

definitely no average in this as the usage of each user varies..is depends solely on user..
so people might run 20 chrome tab which has 20 different processes...
