Aniket and prashant, guys, can you tell me, if the laptops you have, have got those eight rubber screw covers on the screen bezel. 'Cause then it'll be easy as i'll have to follow the steps mentioned in the second link posted by aniket.

but i have no choice ! :(

I mean you dont get better than the 6770m at 50k. Do you?? And i dont think i'll mess it up if a 35 year old mommy could do this (read it in a comment posted on anikets 2nd link). And i dont care about the warranty. I know how to take care of my machines. And for the rest you guys are always here. :)

Anyways i think i can see two rubber screw covers on the sides of both the hinges and the rest of the screen bezel is kept in place by latches, right? There are long linear gaps in the top, left and right areas of the bezel.

Aniket and prashant can you please confirm this for me??

And thanks again. :D

Dude, i seriously think you would have aniket and prashant stand by your side when you do such a thing.:wink:
Don't know why is this issue bugging you to this extent. but surely, most of us wont even dare to do what you're thinking of!
And surely there would be a good story out of this hereafter, most vivacious experiment of this thread :mrgreen:

@Prongs You are right. There are two rubber screws by the side of hinges. BTW go to some HP store. They usually have more than 1 piece. You might find a good screen

If i know me, I'll pull this off. This aint such a big thing !

And prashant, my bud, tell me if i was correct about the latches? And, surely, i will first try to get a good screen by checking, but if i dont, i will have to do this. I cant let this laptop go.

Just read post by some people saying, the dv6 has "bad" cooling system. Any word on this by its current users here?

Also, where are you guys getting the 6140 at 48K? Just asked Croma and he quoted 52K.

Runs cooler than macbook air. Same as Dell XPS. While gaming temps are 60-70. peaks at 75

It says
[The advice and solutions provided here – and in the forums – are tips from individuals trying to help, not an official line from HP.]
IMO that article means that you shouldn't play 24x7. 1 - 2 hrs is OK.
And I can't find it on FB page.

I want to ask a question, My college is in orissa where there is very high humidity at this time of year. Temperatures have not been a problem for me. Will it be advisable to use cooling pad there as it will push humid air inside the chassis??
