Corsair Vengeance DDR3 4 GB (1 x 4 GB) Laptop RAM (CMSX4GX3M1A1600C9) - Corsair: Flipkart.com
can i add this to the existing setup for the dv6 6017tx??

NO..!! This RAM has frequency of 1600MHz whereas your laptop supports 1333Mhz. I am using Kingston 4GB DDR3 1333Mhz RAM from 14 months. It works like charm.

Tell hp,that you are stuck in middle of recovery,and that recovery discs you created are faulty.Then hp will send you new discs.However your lappy needs to be within 90 days of purchase to get the discs free,otherwise you'll have to pay 700 rupees.

Why do you want the recovery discs?
Just use ABR and get a trial version of Win7 home premium.

Poor quality, no reliability, and the chances of blast or damage in motherboard.

Hi,

Anyone updated their BIOS to F.1B? is there any significant benefit from F.1A?

Also does any one know if 6165tx supports UEFI installation mode for WIN 8

F.1B is over a year old BIOS version. Most of the users are using this by this you can set GPU to fixed mode. It helps you to manually set the GPU. For this UEFI software the laptop should have HP Tool drive.

Dear Rider,

I have F.1A BIOS and I have no issues in selecting Fixed mode in the BIOS, I can also manually select the GPU, within windows, hence I didnot bother to update to F.1B.

However I am interested now because of the UEFI installation mode of Win 8.., thought F.1B might be required.

Can you please elaborate on how should I proceed to install Win 8 in UEFI mode.. I dont have the HP TOOLs drive coz I made a clean install of WIN 7..?

I am ready to delete all partitions as I have all data backed up..

I once had a similar problem but on Windows 7. I just uninstalled all the bluetooth drivers, and restarted the laptop with internet connection alive and let windows choose its own generic driver. Worked for me...

I am having issues with my CD/DVD Writer. There are no problems while reading a disc from the drive, but writing files onto a CD/DVD creates bad sectors in the disc. I have used several programs such as ImgBurn, PowerISO, Nero Burning ROM 12, Native CD Burning etc. But, nearly all of them display this error "I/O Device Error".
The burn process completes successfully but the CD/DVD becomes unreadable i.e. the Verification phase fails and the above error is displayed. I have tried several discs and all discs have now become corrupt.
My DVDRW Drive is : hp CDDVDW TS-L633J. I have checked for firmware updates, but there seem to be none.
Please suggest some solutions.
TIA.
