Hi guys,

Need help regarding HP REMOTE CONTROL, Ive a hp dv6700 special edition and today, for the first time, i tried to use its remote. Sadly only one button (Switch screens) was working and the rest are not. I tried removing the cell and placing it again n other small things but they didnt really help. Here is more info about my laptop:

OS: Windows Vista Home Premium

Note: When I bought this, I saw that there are too many hp softwares installed and then the quick play was really bugging me so i uninstalled those hp video/quick play softwares. So now the two quick play buttons on my laptop dont function but I am fine with it. Can that be a reason for the abnormal behavior of my remote control???.

Even if it is, it still has to perform all the windows related functionalities and should not work for quick play right?..Please help me in this regard.

^^ DELL studio 15 comparing to HP !!

DELL studio 15 is my choice , what is ur need ??

Well, im a computer engineering student. Its a basic overall greed for power. Plus the HP DV6 comes with Altec Lansing speakers, a remote, plus an inbuilt dialup, a full keyboard with numpad, multimedia touch buttons, a great look, etc... which arent available on the dell...

The Artistic themes for the DELL are way too expensive. The HP is an all in One package.

Any special reason why you would suggest the DELL?

^^^ But they have AMD processors ! AMD processors are not good @ notebooks , check out the HP DV6 screen with Studio screen
Num pad is really not essential if u need go for USB keyboard , Dell is good @ servicing & replacement , Do u really like in built speakers in Laptop ???

Dial up modem is still no need !! the way USB datacard is available much cheaper .

Studio comes with HD4570 is moderate Grafix for all multimedia .

Hello Guys! I've planned to buy a new Acer laptop... 5738G... It's got AMD Turion™ X2 dual-core processor RM-75 (1 MB L2 cache, 2.20 GHz, DDR2 800 MHz, 35 W) / AMD M780G Chipset / ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4570 with 512 MB dedicated VRAM / 3 GB DDR2 RAM / 15.6" HD / DVD Writer/ 320 GB HDD / BlueTooth/ MultiCard Reader / Gigabit LAN / WebCam/ 4 x USB Ports / Dolby Stereo Speakers/HDMI/ Fingerprint Reader etc. But many of my friends scoff me for choosing Acer. They accuse that Acer's got the worst build quality, and that it crashes too often. I've got 3 extra choices- HP DV61211AX (or) HP DV1110AX (or) Dell Studio 15. I'm utterly confused on choosing the right lappy. Please show me a way outta this maze.

Well I would say go with HP pav DV6 1110ax, as IT's coming with HD4650. So IT's far far far more better then HD4570. And I am using 1154tx with Intel Processor. And Build quality of 1154tx and 1110ax are the same. I have seen both the laptops personally while purchasing mine. And Build quality is good.
Dont think to go with studio 15. IT HAS uncountable issues. List is too long. See following link about discussion over Studio 15 laptop.

i know this one has been asked a zillion times here but now that lenovo has come out with S10-2 model which looks quite decent which proves to be a good buy.
i am currently using a compaq celeron M laptop for 3.5 years and need a good replacement and have zeroed on these two netbooks.
I was quoted 19.3k for acer aspire one 6cell model and 20.7k for lenovo s10-2.
feature wise it is difficult to choose between different netbooks these days but what matters is looks and after sale service.
Can you guys pitch in with your experiences with the both models and is there any other good netbook upto 25k .

Why not a Sony Vaio W 10.1" netbook? It looks damn good and has very good build quality.

Hey

need some advice about purchasing a laptop. my budget is 50k Rs, and im looking for something which can run most recent games, has dedicated gfx card memory, decent screen size etc.

also, it should be capable of supporting visual softwares like autoCAD, solidworks etc.

i had seen a HP pavillion DV6 series laptop, for around 50000 rs, with 1GB Ati radeon card etc, is that a good buy for this price?

Dell Studio 15 or XPS with HD4670 (if available)

what radeon card are you getting on that HP DV6. and yes, afaik, DV6 is a good model.
