Thanks for reply
one confusion , how to change key for 8.1 ?
also i have CoreSingleLanguage edition so the name provided MICROSOFT.WINDOWS.8.1.SINGLE.LANGUAGE.RTM.X64.ENGLISH.DVD-WZT is correct (on the link you provided) ?

Yes that's the right version you need. Most of the PC companies install Single Language sdition as their OEM OS.
The link that I have mentioned is genuine MSDN ISO file and what ever be your source of download but you should check its integrity using the following MSDN info of file to know whether you got the real deal or not:
SHA-1: 10F0288681BF56D22D9ADC58E27BEE2D781E6A1D

To change your installation key to your genuine key, run the following command as Admin:
SLMGR /IPK XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

After inserting the key you can activate it using the internet connection.

- - - Updated - - -

Use this key : Y9NXP-XT8MV-PT9TG-97CT3-9D6TC

Download the one with this file name under SingleLanguage Section :

9600.16384.130821-1623_x64fre_Client_SingleLanguage_EN-US-IRM_CSLA_DV5.ISO

Please remove this installation key immediately. No one should post keys in these forums because doing so may lock this thread!

If i buy the i5 version , is it possible to upgrade its CPU in future ?
Also is it possible to put an Ultra-bay 755m GPU in that ?
Its not possible to upgrade the CPU by using conventional methods. but u can insert an ultrabay 755m in it.. if u r able to import it.

To replace the cpu, you just need to open the laptop which is detailed in user manual available in official lenovo site.

Which SSD should I get for my Y510p?
Also, how do I move my OS from HDD to SSD?

Check which slot it has.(You gotta open it) It probably has a M.2 NGFF
Get any one.
Buy M.2 SSD | M.2 SSD Price in India | Online M.2 Solid State Drive

Use Aomekai(or something/google it) software.

You can't go wrong with Y510P
FHD screen based laptops is the way to go!

Well I got my piece delivered today =D :-D

I ordered it from dostore online here.
Highlights :
1. dostore says the gfx is gt750m , but when i boot the laptop and ran nvidia utility , it tells the laptop has gt755m.
2. buying from dostore supposedly gets you 2 years extra warranty ( i guess thats why the 4-5 k difference with retailers like snapdeal,flipkart ... ).
3. their warehouse is in mumbai, me being in bangalore, they delivered in 6 working days, which is within their commitment . ( site says 5-8 working days ).

*www.thinkdigit.com/forum/chit-chat/45694-post-your-latest-purchase-729.html#post2097847 here i put in snaps and some more details if you are interested.

I need to stress test it with some games =D ...

Now I have to read up all about upgrading it with a ssd .. whew ... the windows experience index is stuck @ 5.9 , because of the 5400rpm drive. yuck.

[MENTION=241072]udit247[/MENTION] , thanks.
Once the laptop was setup and running, I noticed something very wierd. The Mouse Pointer on the screen was all over the place. It was jumping around irrespective of whether I was actually touching the trackpad.
This was really frustrating. I googled it ( believe me it was tough trying to type in the search box correctly with the mouse pointer jumping all over the place,sometimes showcasing a slippery behaviour too ..) ..
Google says, people have faced similar issue with their windows 8 laptops , where in the mouse setting tries to put the cursor to the nearest clickable box.

So I went to control panel > mouse setting > Turn On Click Lock > Turn Off Click Lock
Pointer Options Tab > Turn On Automatically move pointer to the default button in a dialog box > Turn it off.

Apply > Ok. This fxed the issue for me. Hope it help u guys.

Hello guys !! I purchased lenovo y510p a week ago from lenovo exclusive store in mumbai for 74k. And I have two words to say, " Im Impressed !! " .This is a great budget gaming laptop.

Im planning to replace the internal hdd with a ssd. How do I do it? Can I add the ssd along with the internal hdd(not in ultrabay as it will replace dvd drive) ? Will it void my warentee?

Also planning to install a gpu in sli but not sure if this india version supports it.
