QUOTE(EvilDevil118 @ Apr 15 2010, 12:51 PM) To install the latest 197.16 official drivers on a M11X u need to go to ur bios, set ur graphics to discreet, then only u can install. IF u use the hybrid u can't install it, forever u will get error coz the intel graphics will interfere with your graphics. And even if u can make it work u can't switch ur gpu anymore. I tried this on a M11x. ram don't make any differ in benchmarking. well at least for 4GB vs 8GB Running the 197.16 3dmark got around 64xx gain from 61xx, was tested on a demo unit with a SU4100 processor. The memory only 3gb, duno if it would make any more diff if 4gb.  QUOTE(putochip123 @ Apr 15 2010, 03:40 PM) even a noob like me also know how to handle, they are pro tech, no problem 1, some more they go for training 1 hye Putochip123, if you operating your Alienware again, do take some pictures. just for sharing purpose |

check alientouch.. i think ur default setting is that when an external mouse is plugged in, the touch pad is automatically switched off. or try re-installing the touchpad driver.

 closer look of SLi Bridge. soo long compared to Desktop version  both primary and secondary GPU : GTX 280M SLi each of this powerful gonna cost you ~>RM 2150 (>USD600) thus, RM 2150 x 2 = >RM 4,300, just for GPU ( i just realized that fact)  final touch-up before closing  replacing back the keyboard. thanks to my housemate  closing back the back-panel  back-panel closed!  operation complete. ready to be ON.  checking GPU status via BIOS. everything looks fine alhamdulillah  now we are ready to roll.  p/s : gonna check the temp after benchmarking using Vantage tonight  temp after running 3dMark Vantage :

 Remarkable! I'm really astonished with your mounting high courage to do it yourself. How you can do it? Any expert views before we can "operate" our laptops by ourselves?This post has been edited by Jeffrey1987: Apr 16 2010, 12:27 AM |

Any expert views before we can "operate" our laptops by ourselves?opinion : aaaa? just do some research a bit before operating it up. its much better than operate it blindly. its kinda tricky if you don't know the structure underneath each part in the first place. for examples - the SLi bride that i mention aboved & wires that connect my keyboard to mobo. usually there is only one wire (the black one) but Alienware have 2 wires (+ yellow/orange). so if you just open it up blindly, you might snatch the yellow wire and no more bling-bling |
