Question 1

Hey everyone, my laptop came with 2 cables that can be used to charge my laptop. These are cables that are plugged into the power brick and power point. Which should I use?

1. Looks like this:

2. The other one that has a straight head.

Question 2

Will I get warranty for my RAM and Beats Solo headphones? Should I send the warranty cards?

Question 3

Where to find my purchase receipt/invoice for this laptop?

yes it is. unless you're on your HD3000 and with cool sense set to coldest I guess.

Hi! Zhao,

MIne was Rm3099 + rm70 for extra 4gb ram +rm120 for carepack+the hp sling bag. ->so good price, is it possible to give me/pm me the sales man name, so I can get this good price as well.

6001tx is recommended -> I agree with with you too, advantage -> manual switch vs blue ray eg. never use blue ray disc b4 even it release long. haha..



And i was told to fax the carepack form and receipt form to hp after 3days---> So they are using fax


Care pack 3years mean 1year original given warranty + 2year additional . Rm120 for mine. --> so cheap for extra 2 yrs. I check hp malaysia online shop, 3 day response onsite for RM 3yrs for $.299. Difficult decision here, extra 3 years onsite vs extra 2 yr offsite for another RM179 more . Note: Have to call Hp tomorrow to check whether onsite service available in Kuching. In Kuching, hard to find anything, ran around the city and could not even find 1 hp 6001tx display unit, only brochure.. lol. KL got everything but traffic JAM JAM JAM.


And the laptop bag come with is Targus or Hp brand? Hp brand ---> got it. Thanks.



For my Knowledge, the first page covers almost everything. Made recovery disk, repartition uninstall bloat ware, windows update, drive update and repartition your drive the way u like.

Thank you again for replying Zhao.

If come with beat Solo.need extra RM500-->RM3699. I may play with the headphone for 1 to 2 days... haha (I bought a wireless head phone previously, and use it for 2 or 3 times for tv. Nowadays, I dont even know where I keep it. And I am not comfortable with selling thing in ebay or amazon.

The online promotion is much better deal, but only 6114 available, and I don't want to complain everyday why I pick 6114 instead of 6001 even though I know the graphic switch problem. I use open office instead of microsoft office. Hard disk may be good. But the finally price with extra warranty may be near RM4k. ( if purchanse online, still can ger rm120 for extra 2 yr warranty from mobility square?) I just want to get a good price laptop to replace my asus N61jq which is having heat issue shutting down itself even though I am only downloading and playing flash game. LOL.


Thanks for reply. Zhao and Momojii.

Have fun with u new toy Dv6...


By the way, do they have extra charge for credit card payment in Mobility Square?

Avast fee or Microsoft Security Essentials.... I ditched AVG LONG time ago... (like 6 years ago) At that time it was version 8.....

I ran it once a month.

Make sure you run Norton Removal tool and AVG removal tool.....

I have no idea about the seller name. He is the manager of pj it mall branch (mobilitysquare)
U must purchase the laptop from mobility square only you are entittle for the rm120 carepack.
Most visa credit card is free from extra charges except american expresscard .

My wife use avast, i did not hear any complain from her, presume its ok.

Those looking for free version of anti virus, just go for Microsoft Security Essential...

I personally got Norton 360 installed, and everything is good without slowdown ~

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..

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.

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 ??

Mind to share your Windows Experience Index (WEI) score?

Hi! mfa333

So factory reset will reformat the whole drive. Is there other option in the recovery dvd which only reformat the system drive but not the data drive we created ourself.

hahaha yup, it seems that way.. i'm not sure the actual price because i bundle everything and let my uni pay..
sorry, not selling the original hdd.. just in case the laptop need to be send for warranty, i have to switch back to original hdd..

i don't think it will affect wei much.. but i will do it later.. right now i have to install lots of software for my research purpose..

yes it will completely format the whole hdd. but i think if recovery partition already existed in your hdd, you can choose the 2nd option on the recovery menu.

Added on July 3, 2011, 9:08 pmoh ya.. how to change hdd mode to AHCI? and what is the shortkey to enable/disable beats audio?

Thanks for u reply, mfa333, ohh that's good, so we can keep personal file safely when we format. .

One more thing, i would like to double confirm, for 6001tx model, do they have a usb2/esata hydrid port. Now almost all laptop come with this option, it would be weird if it does not have. USB3 speed still not as good as esata when transferring many gigs of files.
