The following notebooks are not compatible with this release:

Check 2nd post of this thread. I will post a working mobility driver and for the meantime, just update your graphic to latest HP. No need to install official AMD.

Link: AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver
2011-11-18 , Version:8.882.2.3000, 338.97M

Remember to create recovery discs. IIRC, you gonna need 4 dvds.

1. You can check here about HP bloatwares. ► http://forum.notebookreview.com/5496474-post2.html
2. You gonna need to update DirectX. ► DirectX End-User Runtime Web Installer
3. How to disable the Action key. ► http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1847795/+1655
4. How to disable the Touchpad backlit. ► http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1847795/+1540
5. How to disable hardware acceleration in MSN so you can switch GPU while MSN is running. ► http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1986935/+497

Do read the 1st and 2nd post when u have free time. smile.gif

Hp dv6 can install ssd right ?? if installed will it void the warranty ?

This part is still confusing.. I read in Notebookreview forum, few guys have no problem claiming warranty even after they swap the orignal HDD to SSD. but got couple of guys said HP Service Centre in their country told them the warranty is voided and they refused to repair it.

Just to be safe, if u planning to change to SSD, make sure u put back the original HDD before u send for warranty or give them a call and said your HDD have a really sensitive personal data and u need to remove the HDD before u send to Service Centre. ph34r.gif

I don't have that. sweat.gif
DirectX11 come with Window 7 and you don't need to update it. What need to update is DirectX9.

QUOTE(kAmilli @ Dec 5 2011, 03:20 PM)
I take back what i said about Leshcat's 11.11a driver. After a very clean install - performance is just as good as some other drivers. And it's not a pain in the ass to connect it to a TV via HDMI without dark lines on the side.
Honestly, there ain't ntohin like playin Revelations and Batman a big TV thru HDMI, looks like an epic movie, even my small sisters watch how i play and don't say a word XD PES looks like a real football game, too

What did u said about leshcat's driver before? laugh.gif
He's driver is good and i think you get more desktop resolution to choose from.

Problem was, i can't use the newer v8.93 CCC with his driver and i need to manually select Disable Driver Signature Enforcement when boot up. sad.gif

Mind printscreen you device manager? Try change to Fixed switching in BIOS before u update the driver. Yours is 6100 series that come with Fixed and Dynamic switching. Make sure your BIOS version is F.1A or newer.

Can use CPU-Z to check your BIOS version.

It's in C:\Windows\System32\GfxUI.exe. You can pin it to Start bar or any other bar biggrin.gif

Ok thanks. I'll try it again. thumbup.gif

You can shrink it with disk management.

2011-11-18 , Version:8.882.2.3000, 338.97M - i did the steps da one tat u post at first page..
just ended there.i din install any official driver from AMD site..
i want to noe,any changelog regarding tis new driver from da previos driver??wat are fixed?
and 1 more, wat means by da new bios has the manual switching in bios (fixed/dynamic)?
if we switch to fixed.then the whole time our laptop will using ATi without change to intel HD?
*

HP didn't say what changed/fix. Only this..
Fix/Enhancement:- Provides a Microsoft Windows Hardware Quality Labs (WHQL) certified driver.

There is no dynamic switching for DV6-6000 series. You can change the graphic by right clicking your desktop and select "Configure Switchable Graphic".
The "hang" happen randomly? What u doing when it happen?

This is getting confusing. sweat.gif Ignore leshcat's driver for now.

Now switch back to HD6770M and go to Control Panel>Program and Features.
Select AMD Catalyst Install Manager and click Repair Catalyst Install Manager and then reboot.

After that follow this guide. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2063314/+215
