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:

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. ==

I kept this.

- HP Software Framework
- HP Support Assistant
- IDT Audio
- Intel® Display Audio Driver
- Intel® Management Engine Components
- Intel® Rapid Storage Technology
- Validity WBF DDK

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...

My desktop runs about 60 processes.

So I'm kind of worried that my new laptop is running 100. sweat.gif

Can somebody help me with my laptop, please?

My problems:

1. Laptop boots on average about 2 minutes. I did this and followed the steps, but it stopped without doing anything after 2 boots. Didn't show any information after that.

2. Laptop often lags.

3. Mozilla Firefox takes about 2 to 3 seconds to load and will go into a "Not Responding" status right after loading for about 2 seconds before it is usable.

What should I do? I'm very frustrated. icon_question.gif

OK after disabling everything and rebooting 3 times, my average time to boot were 45 to 50 seconds, running 65 processes.

EDIT: After a few minutes, it is now running 76 processes.

EDIT 2: Now it's running 83 processes.

Using the code provided that I input in CMD, my laptop autoboot twice then I accidentally hit "Cancel" because it was idle for a few minutes (I thought it stopped).

I expected better performance with this laptop. A lot better performance, in fact.
