Just received my black M15x.

Btw, how to get those fancy alienware log on screen/avatars? (since mine is refurbished set, so have to install the windows 7 via the provided disc)

Anyone has this screen flickering issue for m15x?

hmm, any m15x user here?

How come the screen refresh rate cannot be set to 60Hz? Is it normal? Because my screen is flickering randomly..

Do u force vsync in nvidia control panel? Because i need to force it on to reduce the flickering issue. I mean, if i do not turn it on, it will flickering randomly, sometimes too much. If i do turn it on, the flickering incidents will be significantly less as in its happening once per hour, but still there. To make matter worse, my games performing less admirably with the forcing on of the vsync.
I dont like the prospect of having to send my newly arrived laptop. the postage costs is killing me. Im beginning to think of trading it with the refresh m11x.

I think my unit is refurbished, so i doubt they will send technicians.

And im from Sarawak LOLZ.

There is warranty, but Im yet to resort to such method. Gonna try to update to latest bios this week to see if the screen continues to flicker.

If i call the dell to come, what usually would they need? (as in what info they will ask)
How long does it usually takes for dell staff to arrive upon contacting them?

Received an email from Dell Technical Suppork!
They will call me back to make an appointment in 2 days time.

If not, screw them.

Asus too big for my upcoming college and overseas life.

hopefully they have extra part for lcd. becoz if they dont, i might have to wait for few weeks or even months and i'll be laptop-less in college.. zzzzz

if that dont work, try to see see at nvidia control panel and look for external monitor function.

Erm, m15x doesnt have hdmi port right?
