I have bought the same model "hp pavilion dv6-3049 tx "on 11/9/2010 from chandigarh, sector 20 -c. I am also facing the same problem of electric shocks with this notebook. This problem is not related with one or two pieces but this model is defective. hp have to refund all the money back to its costumers with compensation. Along with this problem its speakers stopped working after four days. i want hp to immediately recall all the units of this model back and compensate to costumers.

regards,

1) i hav purchase dv6 3049yx on 20 sep,2010.as soon as i got started with it,it function in an unexpected way.....like when i want to open every icon on destop or any programme it asks for choose your default programme to perform the functon(i.e. a window appears on the screen saying,"do you want to make changes to your computer.....same as when one wants to install any software").so i complained to the hp customer services n they order me a set of operating system dvds.but till now 7 days have gone and i did't get them. 2) before purchase of this one i did't read the reviews about it. the very first day when i started the laptop......i was sitting on a sofa and the power to the laptop was through an inverter.when i swipe the finger on its metal finish it feels strange....firstly i thought it is giving electric shocks to me....and secondly i thought its may be a metalic touch,but what was the exact reason,still i don't know becoz i'm using a wireless keyboard n mouse and i have done the lamination as well. 3)the third problem is HEATING OF THE ADAPTER.it got too much temp when charging.i also tell this to customer care agent but she told me that it may be a BIOS version problem.but seriously i wanna know to the hp company's owner, why they equipped this one with an older bios version which can't support dv6 3049tx. LASTLY ...........I ALWAYS TREAT HP THE BEST COMPANY AMONGST ALL ITS COMPEITETER.I NEVER ASPECT TO IT THAT IT COULD MAKE THAT MUCH DEFECTIVE PIECES ACROSS THE WORLD.HP SHOULD REFUND THE MONEY TO ITS CONSUMER BEFORE THEY GO FOR "A CONSUMER COURT" TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE A BIG COMPANY AND YOU WOULD LEARN TO YOUR MISTAKES.BECOZ APPLE HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY AND ADAPTER OF ITS MACBOOOK WORLDWIDE FOR CUSTOMER'S SAKE........SO WHY NOT YOU????????

I have purchased HP Pavilion dv6-3049TX from bhopal on 16/10/2010.it is also giving shock when plugged in all through the metal frame. Once i felt the shock when the power was switched off put adapter was plugged in. i feel mild to strong shocks on the dvd writier even when i try to insert pendrive. This is felt besides the fact that i keep my laptop on wooden table.hp should give full replacement and compensation to its costumer for this faulty product. please give my money back hp'.
