Go to the above mentioned link and download the drivers.
BTW there is supposed to be a folder called swsetup or something like that,it contains all the drivers and all the crapware hp gave you.

Could you find the SW folder?Did you go the BIOS and altered anything?
Did you try installing from device manager?
Follow these steps,
...go to start>type device installation>go to change device installation settings>choose the second option(let me choose what to do,and the 2nd option below that)
Check the driver from Intel site yourself,I was in hurry when I posted the link..please cross check yourself.

This DV6 series has always been a pain in their as*,visit any HP service centre and talk to those poor service engineers.In fact one of them told me to avoid dv6 in future.
Their probook series has always been their best seller and had much less failure rates and much better than their rival Vostros.
And there are very good Indian forums,where people wont even touch the dv6 with a 6 feet pole,and let me tell you those guys are definitely not noobs:wink:


Heard of something called VLC or MPC?Who bought you a laptop?

well the guy who made MPC left them and started making duam pot player.. You've got a lot to read up on for 64 bit player nooB
-----------

That apart, has anyone noticed the keys on their keyboard starting to come off yet? My page down, ctrl and shift keys seem awkward! Hope I'm the only one with this problem.... btw i've only completed one game on this laptop.... hope it doesn't give out so soon...

++ has anyone tried out the catalyst 11.9 drivers

well...well..well.. i was planning to buy a Hp dv6-6121tx in coming days but from past days m seeing hp not showing any dv6 models in his official website :-o:-o..new models coming ?? really:shock::shock:

Dv6 has the best specs one can get in the range. Don't know why it is removed from site, unless something new is coming up.

Mr.Geek,MPC is still there and there is no such thing called duam pot player.
It is called Daum Potplayer.
Geeky indeed!
And I do need to read up a lot more..but what should I read?Digit magazines?;-)

i think it's discontinued because when i asked about dv4 3016tx lady in hp world(chandigarh) said it was discontinued and they had a new hp dv4 3145tx same specs as dv4 3016tx except new i5 2430m processor and 750 gb hard drive for 45k . i think i overpaid but anyway it wasn't available elsewhere and i had get a laptop immediately . since then loving my laptop but it seems to have same opengl issue as dv6 6100 series and no solution yet though that don't bother me much as i hardly use any of those apps .

The dv6 6165tx model hasn't been specified on the HP website....

is it better to go for 6121tx or 6165tx since if the latter is a new model there might be unresolved issues.....

How is the game play?
What about the switchable graphics?
