if i am not mistaken,no.it wont delete your others partition

believe it or not,i just held the laptop on one hand,and opened it with the other,and it cracked.
so i've no idea why it cracked

So, anyone here successfully override default partition with multiple partition without any problem?

havent tried formating it but as for now its working well...

it won't delete the other partition because in BIOS u can choose which partition u wud like to install the windows. be careful not to delete all partitions.

Guys, I think my laptop dvd writer drive rosak already. I think I'm gonna change it because it's still under warranty.

I'm planning to go to Alor Star service Center. And I have something to ask you guys.

1) Do I need an appointment to change the drive
2) How long will it takes to change the drive? Because I do all of my work in this lappy
3)Should I delete all the confidential files first before going there?
4) What should I bring when going there. Thanks..

hmm you dun need an appointment to change your drive..just drop by during working hours and they will take 3 working days to fix it for you. if this is the first time you send it to the service centre, present your proof of purchase so the sales person will register the product for you. please ensure that you backup your data before sending it in as they might format your hard drive...

Thanks..It's my first time. but I already register my laptop thru hp website. Why they just can't change the drive on the spot. 3 days, too long for me who done my works 100% using this laptop.

Probably they need to order from singapore etc etc. need to test and anlysze etc etc.

You might want to go there earlier see if they can change it on the spot.

anyone know how to check the warranty status of this laptop online? i want to know when will my warranty expired.

Thank you. you've help me much

cool..didnt know that we can check the warranty status online

if u are planning to change any hardware, be prepare to wait for a while.. last time i sent in my laptop for some minor checks. In the end it took more than 3 weeks for me to get it back.

what they did - change a brand new system board. they also found out that, my dvd writer kaput(maybe they spoil it).

why 3 weeks - they investigate the laptop, your laptop will be monitored for some days - HDD test, software test and bla bla bla. If they found out that there is hardware failure, they will send a report to singapore. they change the board and wait for singapore to say whether the hardware failure is caused by user or factory defect. if cause by user, u have to pay..

not true, my laptop just got back from service centre and they got it fixed within 5 working days...

parts that has been changed is my USB port and my LCD panel and my hdd...

hi peepz,

i'm new in here.. scouting for my next notebook..

anyone have experience with the 6700T series?
how is the built quality and is the notebook really heavy?
what's the average battery time on full-power? and maximum time from power-saving mode..

any particular problems with this series?

cheers.

On a side-note, besides my above enquiries.. were there heat issues with the notebook?
what are the average prices (what specs are there?)

sorry guys
i just noticed my laptop model is actually hp dv6203tx
i had this baby for a year now, but only now i knew the actual model lol

please update the first page please

When I tested my dvd writer today just before going to the Service center, the dvd works again, haihh . I can watch dvd from it and burn a dvd also. But I don't know it's a good thing or not since my warranty will expired in 30 days.

Before this It can't read any cd/dvd and can't burn anything also. And the dvd tray randomly keep popping out when I use the laptop (sounds like virus, but It can't be because because I often update my antivirus, using nod32 by the way.

How can it suddenly be working when for about 2 months it's won't read or do anything rather than keep popping the dvd tray. All I do before the dvd 'drive fix' itself is transfer all my files to another computer. and freed my harddisk from 28GB remaining to 70GB.

What do you guys think I should do? send the aptop to the service center, format the harddisk or just let it be?

If it want to rosak, then rosak now. I'll be happy because it's still in warranty.

i bought dv6227tx 2nd last month n realised that dv series now has come with nice hp total solution. the software from hp that we can check our system info, spec, battery, warranty n etc all in 1 window. anyone know how can i get this software?
