for gpu im mostly using msi afterburner. hwinfo32 also shows the same thing along with cpu temps

do the temps only show up on hwinfo32 when it is actaully running the hwmonitor? Mine usually doesn't display either the hd4000 or the 7750m, but it has at times shown the hd4000 but have never seen the 7750m temps displayed.

on the monitor, make it "high performance" and run a game b4 running the monitor

I found that my computer has the CD drive ejection issue. I'm going to order a replacement, and I was wondering if you guys have any tips (what should I ask for, etc.) How did you guys convince them to let you keep the original laptop till the new one got to you. Also, is there a particular person that I should try to speak to that knows what's going on? Thanks a lot.

hmm try getting a case manager. if its ur first replacement, push for an upgrade. i pushed for the hybrid drive. for the orignial just tell them ull ship it back when ur replacement comes but they will charge u for the replamcenet and refund u the money for the orignial when tehy get it back. and if the person doesnt budge with the upgrade. tell them u will think about it and call again and make sure its a new person. tehy will prolly do the upgrade. just make a fuss and they will try to please u

Ok so i just go my envy. The first moment i picked it up i didn't feel like it was very solidly built.. The back cover isnt very tightly connected to the machine. On the right hand side (when the back is facing you) i could tap the back cover and it makes alot of noise, the left hand side is solidly on though. Is anyone's else machine like this or is it just mines? I dont think a 1500$ laptop should have problems like this

Do you mean the removable battery door? I think a lot of people have this issue at different levels of severity. My first one was solid, and my replacement tapped slightly but neither of them felt shoddy.

There's a very good chance that I'm purchasing this computer tonight. Are the quality control problems bad? I don't want to get it and then have to send it right back.

eh depends on where u stand on the "problems" screen issues r fixed, the replacement i got didnt have any physical imprefections besides screen popping out (Easlily fixed by pushing it back in) if it wasnt for the harddrive randomly malfunctioning..

So I just purchased my envy! What should I make sure to do as soon as I get it?

Also for some reason afterburner doesn't seem to get any readings from my video card. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Thanks for the advice btw. I'm going to call them today. Hopefully I can get them not to charge for the new one at all because i dont want to be missing 1500 till the refund comes through.

EDIT: I dunno how you got that upgrade lol they wont budge and want to charge extra.
