hows windows 8? i am downloading it now....
hey i installed dirt3 a couple o days agoon my dv6 6140 tx. It seemed to be working fine initially but then the display suddenly went off center an in it shifted an inch to the left! leaving a blank black patch on the right. Apart from that, I am able to play the game normally.
Is this normal? does it happen in the games that you play as well?

I turned on hp cool sense yesterday and selected the coolest mode. I haven't been able to open it after that though!

@rajatseth03:- So can upload a screenshot of GPU-z with some heavy game running in background.
Also do you play games. If yes then please benchmark it using fraps (app).
Let me know your results at casual scenes as well as some graphic intensive scenes (eg. Fighting or rather many people in frame) .
In you results i have seen [ROP:2] this I suspect is the real culprit (in case of low performance in games) as when you hover over the "ROP" you get a note that says "The more ROP's a card has the more faster it is". I just want to cross check if ROP of gfx card can effect gaming or not.

Print screen doesn't work?? You took a pic of the monitor...
That was a photo but Print screen works fine, just now tested it! but on my desktop, no empty drive or space in laptop so was not able to install W8 on that.......also what is the Windows experience rating of your laptop in windows 8?

Apart from print screen Sniping Tool is also there. WER is not available in developer preview. Some new rating system will be coming in the final version

WER is there in windows 8.
i dont like win8...it is as user-unfriendly as it can get...especially while finding the turnoff button...its very annoyin...some applications from the start menu can only be closed by the task manager....but it has a very good taskmanager....
Windows explorer looks like microsoft office 2010....bootloader is also stupid....

Guys this is important. Dont ignore. Specially the owners.
Do you guys notice any bleeding of light in the screen exactly behind the brightly glowing hp logo???
I request the owners to test this by just turning of thier monitors by going into the power settings or any other way they want to. You must keep the laptop on and just turn the monitor off.
This is a big nuisance.

@aniket.cain and marvelousprashant -
Are you sure my friend?? Did you test this while the room lights were off, i mean in a dark environment?? Please do this for me!!!
I do not want to be nagging, but when i found out about this it broke my heart as i would surely be buying this dv6 6121 tx or dv4 3015 tx when i get diwali holidays from college.
This is what worries me. Can the person i quoted please post some pics.

I found out a serious issue. When the screen is switched off, the HP Logo's light (the one on the back of the lid) is bleeding on to the screen. Its seen as a yellowish white spot on the bottom right portion of the screen. I think this isn't normal.
arsenalfan001 and members using other DV6 models, Can you please check this with your laptops? To switch of the monitor press the F4 button and select "Projector only". The screen should turn off for 10 seconds. Watch the bottom right for any bright spots. Or set the monitor to be turned off after 1 minute in power options. Remember to turn of all the lights in the room before checking.
I 'm getting really concerned on this

As you have said, I switched off all the lights and took two pics, first with display off and second is for reference. In the first pic the white dot is the wifi indicator. No issues

And here is a pic from mine:

The bright while light that you see, is the light on Wi-Fi button. The very dim while light on the bottom right is the light from LEDs (power, HDD) on the right side of the laptop.
