Of course these games were in high performance mode in fixed mode, any they crash and not even open in full screen. Games are not laggy.

Got to see the new dv6 7010tx closely and in detail as my cousin had come to my city for a weekend stay,and meanwhile purchased the laptop.Here are a few information and differences from our dv6-6000 series.
1.Price-58000INR
2.Looks and hardware differences-Personally,I liked the looks of new dv6 better,as its much sleeker,slimmer and looks elegant.The hinges also appeared very stylish and that creaky feel of eArlier dv6 is now gone.To me,the laptop appeared a bit lighter.You now get a chrome ring around the trackpad instead of the illumination.You also get a couple of new stickers for hp carepack and hp premier services.Speakers from front are gone,and with the new subwoofer in the lower side of device,the sound appears somewhat subdued when using on bed.However,ignoring that when using a cooling pad,sound has more depth and is almost at par with xps.Infact it narrows the gap between earlier dv6 and xps' sound quality.The newer dv6 looses a very useful 2 headfone out feature,which in my opinion is a downgrade.However,you now get 3USB 3.0 ports and 1usb 2.0 port.It also comes with a new flap for lan port.The screen's colour production was a bit washed out..
The bottom line-HP have followed XPS view-Jack of all trades,master of none.To me,its a downgrade when compared to earlier dv6,specially when gpu is considered.HP should have tried to break new grounds,and provided some out of box features,just what the dv6 line is known for.

can anyone tell me how to open the back cover to plugin RAM? It seems very hard to slide that knob, although the battery opens easily. For 6140.
Also, there's seems to be something loose inside the system, when moved some noise is there like something is sliding, although the system is working fine. Any idea, anyone?

The money you have to pay depends when you buy the extended warranty. For less than 3 months after purchase its Rs.4500 and after that its more. But this warranty is currently available for Rs.1133. Also extend warranty does not have ADP. Go to this link to register : Extend Warranty

You can check your warranty status here : HP Product Warranty Check - HP Customer Care (India - English)
It doesn't say anything about ADP but don't worry HP laptops come with 1 year ADP from date of purchase.

I have recently purchased 2 yr extended warranty on my 6165tx laptop. The cost was 6250 INR. This includes 2 yrs onsite warranty (on HW parts) apart of the 1 yr factory warranty (overall 3 yrs warranty on H/W parts). For the A/C adapters & Battery I am not sure whether its covered under warranty or not but recently my power adapter stopped working & on complain, HP is replacing it free of cost.

I think HP has extended warranty process through 3rd parties only.
Recently I purchased 2 yr onsite extended warranty on my 6165tx laptop for 6250INR. HP gave me the contact of "Intarvo Technologies" & they did all the payments n all process but the care pack certificate I got was issued by HP only.
Now when I check on HP website also it shows the care pack details :)
So I think no issue in buying warranty through 3rd party provided by HP.

Hi,

I was also getting this same issue of side black bars initially when I was playing CS1.4 on my 6165tx laptop. The solution for old games like CS1.4 to run on full screen which worked on my laptop is :---

go into the properties of your inbulit intel HD Graphic card ---> reduce the resolution to "1360*768". ---> select the Scaling option as "Scale Full Screen".

Apply

Now change the resolution back to "1366*768". Now run the game again. I hope it should run in full screen on ur laptop too.
