@kelvin

The last time I did it was I restarted the pc, at starup I presses F8 then went to repair computer. From there a new menu with 5 selections and at the bottom most is the DELLSAFE program which restores the pc to its original state. However my partitions were untouched.....

@Docter

I feel so too. Alienware wouldn't want too many models cluttering their small form factor models. There already is a balance with an 11", 15.6" and a 17" .... All seems fine.... smile.gif

what u mean by ur partition is untouched? not formatted?

Then dell say wat...still gt warranty to u?

probably need to arrange for a motherboard replacement, technician will come for service by tomorrow, and of cos the warranty is still valid, u can make a google search, see how many m15x owners are making noise there for refund and replacement, and some of them are very angry for that... if Dell is not going to reponsible for that, i cannot predicting what is going to happen, imho, bios update is necessary as it fix all the drawbacks from the previous bios, and this was the mistake by Dell and they have pulled the previous bios version and replace it with A02 now on their website, and it is not logic saying we are only eligible to do the bios update when we are instructed.

actually we can hold them to this cos they stated in their site........ Lets see how it goes in a while when they start releasing new stuff for the alienware..

meaning that dell will release some high end hardware at a fair price for alienware owner to upgrade their system?

Well from a legal point of view, they can't just advertise and not keep their word. So if they can state such a thing in their site about allowing users to upgrade without stating any clause in there that excludes certain parties or certain conditions, we can expect them to allow future upgrades like memory or GPUs with less than retail price at most...... icon_idea.gif

are u sure what they pledged is valid in malaysia?

Nope, wont work. Even by stopping the players process using task manager, it doesnt work. lol.
Argh,nvm, maybe its cuz of the 'jack sparrow' dvd.  cool2.gif

imho, it has nothing to do with jack sparrow dvd or original one, since dvd reading mechanism is the same for both of them, the only different will be the contents....

M11x is very tempting, it portable and new.. even can play most of the game in good setting.
i have dilemma in chosing between m11x and m15x.
m15x, the battery life is headache..
m11x not cheap either, and the processor is quite low.
i'm into working + gaming purpose tho.
most of the time uses photoshop, 3dmax software.
how ah? any suggestion?
*
m15x, core i7 for photoshop, gtx2X0 for gaming, and of cos portability for working compared to m17x of cos (not UL or macbook or ipad),lolz
