So.  After battling for a whole week to get the hard drive caddy to fit in properly, I decided to give up.  It's just too much trouble.

The problems I faced were as follows:
- The optical drive is fixed to the chassis using this metal bracket that is a specific shape.  It looks like it's easy to transfer over to the caddy, but it isn't: the screws used to attach the bracket to the optical drive are too short to work with the caddy.  I had to hunt high and low for screws for the whole week.

- Taking off the faceplate/bezel from the optical drive was difficult, frustrating, scary and causes irreparable damage to the latches in the form of scratches.  This is just a matter of courage, of course, as Acid managed to do his with no trouble.

- Fixing the faceplate/bezel to the drive was problematic for me, and I couldn't figure out why.  It looked like the latches just didn't lock properly for me.

- Slotting the caddy into the bay was difficult,and again I couldn't figure out why since Acid didn't have any trouble.

All in all, it was a lot more trouble that it was worth for me.  I think I'll wait for a semi-official kit to come out.

And congrats on v3.

The temp look OK, but your speed is insane. Even my 2720QM can't reach that speed... cry.gif
Acid, how long do you need to change the thermal paste (Including the dissambling and assembling the laptop). Any special tips regarding which part is tricky and need extra care. Watching the video on the first page few times but still feel discourage by the number of screws and parts & connectors we'll need to take out... shocking.gif

u mean the complete time??? mine fast ar??

Check if your CPU is throttled. tongue.gif

The only thing that still scare me is when u flex out the base cover to make clearance to the connectors on the left side of the mobo. Other than that is still manageable.

I opened the mobo again yesterday for the 3rd times and it only takes under 1 hour to complete. Without looking at the manual at all.  brows.gif

Basically u need to:
1) remove the components and wires.
2) push the keyboard from bottom and remove it.
3) disconnect the zif connectors on top cover.
4) pry out the top cover.
5) remove the zif connector and power cable from motherboard.
6) remove LCD, fan and bluetooth connector and unscrew the fan.
7) flex the left side of the base cover and pull the mobo out from the base cover.
8) unscrew the HSF and reapply the thermal compound.
9) reverse everything.

my only failure so far is that, now i got 1 extra screw which i don't know where it come from. sweat.gif

If you check the Manual.. to remove system board you need to:
The disassemble video on front page is totally different for my model. sweat.gif

I also dunno what is its use... but when i tried to rename it, it said some programs may not be running if i do so, so i leave it be lo.... better not do it than sorry later...  sweat.gif
louis, why you keep going into bumps when dealing with your lappy? First the auto-switching thing(now solved, though you dont need it anymore), then the video codec thing(i think you finally solved it with sifus' help), then the recovery discs(i assume you not yet solve) and now the missing HP_Tools partition....
Me still not yet, couldnt find the courage to do so.... scare will hurt my baby girl  sweat.gif

About 70% of the time I alt-tab/hit Windows key/zoom out of Heroes of Newerth, my screen blacks out. Sometimes my laptop immediately hangs and has to be shut-down forcefully (several times already). But sometimes, it recovers and shows me the following dialog on the bottom-right taskbar:

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


For those that prefer not to see the screenshot, it says:
I already reinstalled my driver and it worked... for a few days. Then the problem came back. What should I do?

Thanks!

here is the way to solve the problem of WLM not allowing us to change graphics, works like a jiffy smile.gif
add both intel and ati cards as two separate keys to the registry so u can switch from both cards.
