lol.... OH YA! i just realised i have OSX in my hdd when i send it for repair.... luckily they didnt found it.. haha
but the main reason i send it for repair is because my LAN port won't link at 1gbps... its always at 100mbps... and since
its still under warranty i decided to change it lo biggrin.gif

it's been a while since i installed OSX on my dv6 but you're in luck cuz I bookmarked the forum link on how to install it... biggrin.gif
here you go... basically all you need to do is restore the image to a usb drive and boot from it to install (borrow a mac from your friend to restore the image smile.gif )...
but do keep in mind that not all the stuff are working.... like wifi, USB3.0 and the AMD gpu...

good luck! biggrin.gif

You can download Win7HP-64 SP1 ISO and make it USB bootable.
Backup your window license with Activation Backup and Restore or just reactivate using the key under your DV6. hmm.gif

Installation is a no brainer. tongue.gif

U mean your beats smartphone output is better than your DV6 with Beats enabled? sweat.gif

IMO, you can't use my setting because i'm using different speaker and i probably have different taste in sound quality compare to yours. laugh.gif

Just wanna figure out what is your average battery time and discharge rates (using BatteryCare)

Mine usually lasts about 2:40+ with WiFi on and with headphones on with a discharge rate of about -19.5W. Is that a bit too much? My laptop could've lasted up till at least 3 hours in the olden days (6 months ago lol)

EDIT: Btw, any advice before I go and buy some RAM for my laptop. Looking to expand it to 8GB so planning to buy another 4GB soon. Anything like certain brands or formats that are not compatible or just not good?

here is mine smile.gif
with lowest screen brightness and wifi on and music i can last for around 3 n half hour nod.gif

i did some configuration @ intel graphic propertie for best display output for me thumbup.gif
i decrease the birghtness to -30 and increase the saturtaion to 6 and it give the best outlook for me thumbup.gif

Disable TurboBoost? hmm.gif
IMO, just stick with Leshcat 12.6 UP3 or 12.7 Beta. Not worth the trouble to use 12.8 unless u're trying Win8.

disabling turbo boost reduce heat??? ohmy.gif
ok imma gonna give it a try icon_rolleyes.gif
