ZeneticX,
I think it's normal for screen to turn off when u close the lid. If u dun want the laptop to sleep when u close the lid, then u can set from advanced power options.

That only for DV6 without switchable graphic which i don't know which model that was. For us, we only need to install the AMD driver from HP which is bundled with Intel driver.
Yup..


Added on November 17, 2011, 6:29 pmWas testing the 11.11 driver with Skyrim. While i was wandering around, a dragon came. Halfway fighting a giant interfere and killed the dragon for me. When i thought that's probably a "good" giant, he swung his axe and got me airborne... how naive.  doh.gif

The driver seem to fluctuate at some places dropping the framerate below 30 fps and it doesn't feel that smooth. Gonna reinstall DNA 11.8.3 to check whether its a placebo effect.

Thanks Acid!!

Try reinstall.. and do it in custom installation. Check post installation report to see any failure.
You downloaded the driver from front page right?
HD7690M is still HD6770M only with higher clock.

Thanks Acid. Got it done.smile.gif

aiyoh...  cry.gif  now u make me feel wanna wrapped my dv6 liao...  hmm.gif

i now only put the screen protector and keyboard cover... haiz... tempted to wrapped it but okane ga nai at the moment...  whistling.gif

i wonder if any place can wrapped the dv6?? so far amourone doesnt have the skin... and tan_alliance doesnt seem to reply my enquiries as well...  cry.gif

It's ok la.The fact that it has metal skin also contributes to attraction of dust(electrostatic). I've used for a few months so you will have that amount of time to decide. I cover my screen with cloth whenever I'm not using.So I think it helps by preventing the dust from screen falling into keyboard...smile.gif


Added on November 22, 2011, 4:49 pmHmmm..think I'm gonna try 11.11a though I dun game often. Current games include Fear3,Deus Ex and Assasin Creed Brotherhood. Midway playing Fear 3 but haven't started on the other 2...smile.gif

Crysis 2 is very good, I was glued till the end. That's the 1st game I completed on my DV6 tongue.gif

2nd game is NFS: The Run. Now not actively playing anything, cos nothing suits me...

That was one of the first few games I completed too...Now playing Fear3 but doesn't seem exciting...

guys look at this
http://h20386.www2.hp.com/MalaysiaStore/ht...s-campaign.html promotion page 
http://h20386.www2.hp.com/MalaysiaStore/Bu...detail=P212033& Specification page

in promotion page they wrote HP Pavilion dv6-6b14TX come with Beats Audio™ support BUT why in specification page wrote it come with Altec Lansing speakers - Dolby Home Theater???

Anyone can clarify???

This model doesn't have USB3. Is the graphic card better than 6770? I was wondering how come it's selling at 4k+

New graphic driver from HP is up. Larger than before. laugh.gif

AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver ► 2011-11-18 , Version:8.882.2.3000, 338.97M
Try update to latest driver from HP up there..
Since u're getting original, i suggest get BF3/MW3 instead. Better multiplayer experience than Crysis series.
What problem? Can take screenshot?

Thanks Acid!! Will update soon... rclxms.gif

Both of these games are shooters. There is single player and multiplayer. I only play single so multiplayer is not really a concern to me. smile.gif

Been using my laptop without any driver not responding error for a few days. Maybe the latest video drivers solved the problem?
