Thanks guys. Now i have some good idea about this configuration and the pricing also comes around 40-43K as per the prices are ITware.

Thanks, I was bit confused over C2D and Q6600 as some friends suggested that quad will be better option over C2D. Just one more thing, regarding the gfx card, how different will Palit 9800GT 512MB DDR2 be from the HD4850 512MB GDDR3?

Hi All, I am planning to buy a new desktop. Primarily using it for web application development, gaming and some entertainment. Please suggest me a good configuration. I am looking at a budget of around 35K(max 40K). I am actually confused with whether to go with a Q6600 processor or with C2D...

Finally finished my dual boot setup on the laptop with XP and Vista... Thanks for these step prasad... this was the most important step of all.

^^ Well... that is what i implied there... I was just clarifying 'djmykey' why i can't go for disabling SATA option. Since disabling SATA option is not available we have to slipstream SATA driver into XP cd, as you had suggested earlier in a post. I couldn't complete XP installation due to some...

@djmykey, you r right... if we can disable the SATA support to the harddisk, XP can be installed. Its the SATA mode that XP is not able to recognize, without the driver. But with Dv6516, the bios don't have any option of disableing SATA itself, so this cannot be achieved. @ankurgupta.me- Are u...

^^ Thanks very much for the links... the second link is really an excellent one. I will try it out...

^^ That's good to know... can you please give me an overview of the drivers and s/ws that u needed while installing XP and any specific problem that you may have encountered during the process. And BTW you have done a dual boot setup... rt ?

^^^ You can try this link: Dual Booting XP with Vista ... kinda tutorial for "dual booting XP with Vista already installed". Also you will need the SATA driver before u start with the installation of XP. You can try this below link given by gx_saurav for the drivers: I couldn't get time to...

^^^ Thanks buddy, thanks a lot :p ... I will try it out.

Thanks for your replies.... I will try looking for that... I have "Intel 965PM Express Chipset". BTW will this a have XP specific driver or a generic one ? I tried to do that... disabling the SATA Native support.... but the BIOS doesn't have any such option.

Downloading SATA driver is what i am taking about.... how will i know which SATA driver is the correct one for my Laptop hard disk. I mean what is it based on which i should search for the drivers - Hard disk, SATA Harddisk controller, hardware .... :confused::confused:.

Has anyone tried installing XP on DV6516tx. When I tried installing XP on DV6516, its giving me error saying "no hard disk found" during installation :(. I think its something to do with the SATA hard disk drivers. Anyone know how to find or locate drivers for this... i mean, when i say i...

Cool man :cool:... good layout and design and ofcourse Great info. You should show this to BSNL ppl, atleast they will learn about how to advertise their product :D.

^^ yes right.... no hic ups and no data loss.... also if you are worried about data loss i would suggest you to do a disk fragmentation before continuing with partition creation.

^^^ I just completed my partitioning on dv6516tx, using Vista's inbuilt disk management feature. Initially it did not allow me to shrink the C: drive volume less than 70GB from its initial size of 140GB, though only 20GB was occupied. But once you disable the "System Restore" and "Page File...

^^^ I would suggest u file a complaint in consumer forum, after all it’s only a paper and pen it would take to file a complaint. It doesn't matter if they have anything on their website or not... as long as they promise 10ps/min on the sales product and doesn’t mention about the 500 min...

Yes it does has a HDMI port. The maximum i have used it, so far, is about 5 hrs at a streach and the temperatures it reached are not too high for a laptop. The battery backup however depends on what u r using it for at that time, i have got about an average of 3 to 3.5 hrs backup.
