I bought this laptop on 6th June 2015. Got the Delivery on 7th as I have one day delivery in Flipkart First service. Since then I have tried to install Windows 7 64 bit from bootable usb as well as bootable DVD. Upon installation I found that only LAN drivers are available for Windows 7 and wireless and bootable drivers are not available on HP Support site for this particula model. It works find with Windows 8.1. But since I specifically wanted to use Windows 7, I bought this particular model as it was available without OS preloaded.nnI have contacted HP support as well and they have also tried to install various drivers from multiple manufacturers but none of them work with this system. Also after installing the AMD graphics driver the system crashes repeatedly with Blue Screen. The configuration is great but the performance is pathetic to say the least, if it is not supposed to work with Windows 7, then it should be clearly mentioned. I mean in windows 7 it only works without graphics driver and no wireless, so the Graphics Memory is a waste and it is like using a desktop(since wifi does not work)
got it for 41490 on flipkart app day salenbest hardware confi. at this price pointnruns all heavy games like cod:advanced warfare, far cry 4 , gta v ,batman,etc.nbest runs with windows 8.1 latest buildngot all drivers on hp support
The project is good in specs. High Performance. But the issue arises in finding AMD graphics for windows 8.1. Even the Hp support site does not give the proper link...and one more think the ADP 1 year warranty, the claim for the same is rejected by HP..
Sorry, I had written the earlier review in haste. WiFi in fact is working fine. I had made a mistake in my configuration which is why WiFi was not working. In my defense, when I googled for BCM43142, there were a lot of complaints about it. And when I tried returning the product, flipkart said they will not refund or give a different model. I panicked at this thinking I have just lost Rs.43000/- on this!! Honestly we have to be careful when buying expensive stuff from flipkart. What if WiFi had actually not worked? I would have been screwed!!
Got this laptop within 2 days of booking.Awesome delivery by Flipkart.Display and sound is very good and so are its hardware.Laptop does not weigh much and has a good diamond textured outer pattern.Did not experience much heating problems..The lack of a backlit keyboard,i feel is the only disadvantage..
