    I use HWMonitor to read temperatures. If the Radeon is working, HWMonitor will track the temperature. If the Intel graphics are working, the temperature reading will stay at 0. Others have recommended MSI Afterburner for more detailed information.

    No. And you should be able to find support information for the 6100 series. Go here and enter your product number. LM726AV for the dv7, and LM720AV for the dv6.

    Look for the first Google results for GPU-Z and 3DMark Vantage.

    I'm not sure if you can on these newer laptops. And even then, I wouldn't really advise you to do so. They run quite hot already.

    Find the Sound options in Control Panel. Right-click Communications Headphones and disable them.

    It should be working if you have Beats Audio enabled. Fn + B to toggle Beats.
