no haven't. Just done with BF3. Maybe replay again. There was some cracking in the image before this and performance not stable. Screen frozen many times during gameplay and have to force close BF3 through task manager.

^the red warning light means HP 3D guard has already locked your HDD. Maybe see if you can update the software...

HP has this software to help protect your HDD. When it 'sense' movement, it will lock ur HDD to protect it from damage(bad sectors)

can you try to disable the 3D guard and see if the light changes to white? If not, I think might be something wrong with your hdd...

Normally, the hard disk LED stays permanently on white and blinks when there's activity right? Or does it stay off and blinks when there's activity?
*
No, the HDD only blinks when there is activity. If there isn't , then it's off.

Hey guys, since my wife's dv6's graphics card's mem chips completely burnt already, i sent to hp service center and got the mobo replaced. now works fine. but i can't configure the switchable graphics method. it's now stuck at dynamic (application based) switching which i really dislike. Tried updating CCC and gf card drivers (it was using the old card drivers), and still the same. Ideas?
*
Check your bios firmware. Maybe it's still the old version. Update it to F1.A in order to have fixed switching. Check out the first page for more info.

Yes.It's around RM80+. I am using both U3 and Infinite Evo. Both are ok.Evo is slightly more expensive at RM90+. While U3 has adjustable fans that you can position to cool down specific parts of laptop, Evo has distributes the heat through the aluminium top and cool them using 2 fans. The good thing about Evo is u can use it on bed as the intake is behind. That's the reason I got 2 of them. I used Evo more for my dv6 and U3 is for another spare laptop. So it really depends on how u use it. Forget about using U3 on the bed, I've tried, the output air is really low as the intake is blocked.smile.gif

Is evo really suitable for dv6-6001? I see the vents of evo are at the middle but dv6 got vents at the bottom left side and this side is the hottest when i play game.
*
Graphic card will not be blown by vents directly but the heat is dissipated by the aluminium top. It's warm during gameplay.

I'm getting around 30fps in BF3 using default clock values. Is this normal?

Acid,
core clock 725 and memory clock 800. So I guess it's normal.
