Thanks Efalex for your instructions. Thought you said you got no time to on laptop until weekends?

Edit: I also updated my BIOS and enabled the "Fixed" mode just now. Now my dv6-6114tx works like a charm!!!!! Makes me wanna go jumping around and screaming for joy!!!

Congrats bro!!!!

LOL... the first time i flashed my BIOS is without the battery, because that time i dunno the huge R-I-S-K back then. Was relieved that time nothing went wrong, phew
The second time i flashed the BIOS i plugged in the battery now, coz i scared the 15.6" paperweight might happen.... but nevertheless, it was a success!

LOL... well, just 1 or 2 weeks after you sell your 6114tx and the problem is gone
Well, at least you get to do your stuff first though

o.O.... ok, well, it is still ok la... since you need it urgently. No harm with your 6001tx right?
Why everyone's temp is so low one.... Mine played crysis 2 with U2 cooler with Coolsense Performance optimised mode the CPU temp is 92-95 degrees and the GPU is 86-88degrees.... I brought to HP service centre twice already and they said the temp is normal.... any other clue to why my 6114tx temperature so high???

Wa.... you played on battery mode??? Sorry wor coz i never tried playing it with battery (the high temp will kill the battery). Hmm... you all played for like 40-45 minutes? Me played around 40 something minutes also below 90, maybe long hours will exceed 90?

Btw, wanna ask you guys who played crysis 2. The nano catalysts thing... will the number of nano catalysts you collected "disappear" or "decreases" when you quit the game, then resume the game? Sorry im using hehe.... Because the first time i quit, then when i resume back, the number of nano catalysts dropped, then the second time i quit and resume, it all gone... have to recollect again.... haih.... and does all alien dropped nano catalysts? Or only some? Because not all dead aliens that i killed allowed me to collect the catalysts....

LOL... louisfjh, you're contrasting the price?

Sifu lee, does my case is overheating? I brought to HP centre first time they changed the GPU fan and heatsink, the second time they check they said no problem, just help me updating the BIOS and drivers (which i think does not improve/change the problem)....

Want to ask as louisfjh, how to do the intelburntest? What does the test justify?
Me dont have the verifying error.... Me do the recovery the very FIRST THING when i entered into windows for the FIRST time....

Okay... do post your temp after you tried 1 or 2 hours....

Oh.... okok. Just off my laptop. Will try it on Friday night or later morning, thanks sifu lee.
Will post the temps after the test.

Erm... want to change government i also agree... the custom tax alone is already pissing me off..... But i hope not PAS take over la, if not our lives = THE END....

Sifu lee, this is my temp after doing the intelburntest just now... the Coolsense is in Performance Optimised mode, ran it under U2 cooler....
Is the temp considered ok?

Please do make the video!!!! I also want to reapply thermal paste, was planning to send back to the troublesome/bothersome hp service centre and wait for 3 days again, but would be EXTREMELY delighted if you can make a tutorial video on how to apply the thermal paste ourselves!
Btw, can recommend which thermal paste is the best/most effective? Me noob in thermal paste section

ok, will try again with the throttlestop. Will post again after test.

Sifu lee, this is my 2nd test.
this time, i tested without switching on my Radeon HD6770M GPU, the one i tested earlier is while the HD6770M is ON.
The coolsense is set at Performance Optimised, ran under the U2 cooler.
The throttlestop i did what you instructed and this is the result.
So, what can we infer from this result?

Added on August 5, 2011, 4:08 pmYou ran under what condition? Can state clearly thee variables? Like, what environment, the coolsense settings, using with or w/o cooler and etc. Can provide more accurate information for the sifus to judge....

Huh? How you know the results are better? And somehow hotter? LOL... what expression should i show?
Erm... sifu lee, when i do the tests for test 01 and test 02, both also i start the openhardware monitor first, then only i ran the intelburntest....
My hdd when idle i think is around 38-41 or 42, when gaming is around 42 or 42.5 degrees.

Heh??????? River, you sure my results are better than yours? But yours are cooler than mine!!!! I also thinking maybe is the thermal paste issue.... argh....

And sifu lee, when i ran the second test, i was buffering youtube videos (although i think they already finished buffering when i ran the 2nd test...)
Does that affects the result?

Added on August 5, 2011, 9:58 pmYes, finally i found you!!! I forgot your name but i remember last time got one user also posts high temps when played crysis 2 like mine, but i just cant remember his name!!! Now finally saw you, you not in LYN often?

I think the damage sustained is not as big as when you're flashing your BIOS....

On the second test, i still open the openhardwaremonitor first, then only i open the throttlestop, at that time it is turned off because that is the first time i open the throttlestop.
So in the end sifu lee, my temps are normal?

LOL.... me only first day use got put battery... after that every time i use also without battery... why you guys plugged out the cable so fast? Me always let the whole thing shut down and no LED lights on my lappy, then after i plugged out the cooler and the external mouse only i switched off the power and plugged out....

LOL... so far not yet experience power breakdown. If like that then cannot lo, it is not a manipulative variable...
But if you plugged in the battery all the time... o...ok, since you decided that you rather change battery more often then i can comment no more, it's your laptop and preferences anyway...

I think you can compare with moderator acid's results, just a few pages back.
Me still waiting for guidance from sifu lee....

Erm... actually if can i wont take out the battery, but you know, you never knew when you will game or do something that is resource intensive that would heat up the notebook, so im just a little concerned about the battery's wear and tear....
Well, if you're a very forgetful person (sorry, doesnt mean to sound rude) then you better plugged in the battery, because i dont think there's any other way around it
Erm, my area rarely experience power breakdown but of course not NEVER experience breakdown la, well, now that you mentioned it, it makes me wanna keep the battery in.... especially now since i uninstalled crysis 2 so now my lappy is almost tad "empty" with just my animes + anime songs....
