Hi,
I too, had the same problem. I did not put up with it - I bought it from Currys and brought it straight back. Warranty or not, where I live I am entitled to assistance seeing as I did not break it myself. I'm not sure if that's the case in your country, so please don't go back to the shop demanding help.
Like said, I put my battery to high performance - this worked, but the assistant told me if it didn't work there could be other problems.
Perhaps your battery is interfering with the soundboard, resulting in the robotic sound. However, if this is the case I don't know why your laptop would lag.
It seems plenty of people have had this problem and the assistant in the shop told me that it happens often in the the g series oh HP. He deleted a lot of programs that came with the laptop that I didn't need - I can't exactly remember what they were, so I apologise - but I would say start by deleting anything you know for a fact you don't need. You can check online what programs are necessary if you're unsure - be very careful though!
If it's your mouse that's lagging, you can change its speed in Control Panel. If nothing helps, send it to HP and ask could they help in anyway, or back to the shop where you bought it. I'm not that sure whether you're entitled to help, but you could maybe ask anyway. There are places designated for fixing laptops, so perhaps you could bring it there?
I know how disappointing it is. I received my Pavilion g6 for Christmas and already it's had 2 problems - one being the robotic sound. I was under the impression HP was one of the leading brands in the world, and to be honest this has sort of put me off purchasing another laptop from them! 
Good luck!
Hi there, three days ago I bought my HP Pavilion G6 laptop from PC World (this is the 2nd laptop Ive had from PC World in 2 weeks, I originally bought a samsung laptop but had to take it back for an exchange due to software issues and also because there was no battery included in the box and was given the HP G6 as a replacement) well when I got it home and started using it I noticed that the keys (particularly keys 1,2,3, and 0 on the number pad section of the keyboard) were kind of "lose" and and not as firm and secure as the rest of the keys on the keyboard and they feel as tho they are becoming loser the more I use them. It feels to me as if that section of the keyboard is not screwed/"attached" as well as the rest of the keyboard (if that makes any sense :-/ ? Well my question is - am I justified in taking the laptop back as faulty ? There is obviously something not right with the keyboard and Im far from happy with spending £450.00 on a machine that to me is 2nd rate and shodily built Also has anyone else had any simular problems with the keyboard feeling "lose" and unattached in places ? I would be really greatful for some sort of advice or feed back. Thanks for your time. Jase1971
