    Hey all I just purchased a emachines m6811 2 weeks ago I'm thrilled but do have some questions. I would like to optomize this to run as well as possible, so far the only thing I've done is install omega drivers and slightly overclock the graphics card. Is there a deffinitive guide to fully optimizing your laptop? bios upgrade?? what will default the warranty etc. Any help or links would be appreciated

    A Hitachi 7200RPM drive us definetly a step up in performance. Removing the hard drive should be covered in the manual. I would upgrade the bios only if needed.
