you never felt one because i guess you are using with onboard sound chipset. thats why.

the salesperson is right. you need 3 jack input excluding 1 for mic, to fully unleased 5.1.

how good you can tweak it, based on your sound driver.

how quality is the 5.1 sound produced, based on your soundcard hardware.

thats the best for portable.

believe me, when i use something, i want the best

you go and try first. then you can talk about money. it seems money is not matter anymore once you experience 5.1 when gaming


oh and remember, we both discussing two limited item here. its quite difficult to find Kave and Creative X-Fi External Soundcard nowadays....

Enabling Surround Sound

The primary function of the SigmaTel Audio Control Panel is to allow the system to be connected to external speakers for surround sound. By clicking on any of the large icons on the Jack Setup tab, a pop-up menu is displayed. One of the options on the menu will be to configure the connector for one of the surround speaker settings. This still requires the user to connect the correct speakers to the correct connector, as each connector only has one surround sound option.

The surround sound speaker designations are as follows:

Far left connector (pink) - for MIC / not used in 5.1 sounds system
Left connector — Front speakers
Middle connector — Center / LFE speaker
Right connector — Rear Speakers

Feeling so broke right now after ordering the M11x for my sister, don't have the heart to further bleed my wallet anymore . .

learn how to strip your system.

stripping means voiding the warranty??


by the way, anyone know any good laptop cooler for m11x? if nothing is good, im gonna order custom mad ones from AllnGap... he did a damn great job on my ram cooler last time...

for all dell system there is 2 type of parts, one is FRU (Field removable unit - done by Dell certified technician) and CRU (Customer removable unit)
Removing CRU yourself wont void the warranty, and FRU is only recommended to Dell certified technician and removing this parts yourself will void the warranty.
but if you get help over the phone on removing this FRU parts, it wont void the warranty. if you dont know which parts is FRU and CRU, you can call the help line and get advice.
helpline are open 24hours for customers with warranty. also if you notice, Dell does not use warranty sticker like other brand, so if you know how to stop your system, no one know you open it.

guys, when i got my m11x, there were 2 partition hard disk...500 gb was split into 195 gb and 270 gb...does every alienware have 2 harddisk or is it a common practice to make partitions??

cheers...

well, 2 partition doesnt means is 2 hardisk, is just 1 HDD saperated to 2 partition, M11x only have 1 HDD bay

wahh... good that they make u a partition... mine have to make it myself...

oh, thats all i need to know.. i tot they got two disk or something..thankss

any lan game recommand? im using "special" version game, so cant use steam

another thing is, looking for Speaker. budget RM400, what would be the best?

DOTA ?

finally my m11x hinge issue come...led on keyboard also spoil..fan always on...lalala time to see dell technician

Summon the technician, pray for different color case?

different color nicer meh?

Okay, assuming that I have removed the battery from M15x and there is an unexpected power cutoff, at most it is just an improper shutdown to the laptop, similar to any desktop, right? I could get corrupted files here and there with missing documents, but for worst case scenario, I may just reinstall the Windows. For this, there should not be any damage to the laptop, right? I do not really understand how power cutoff can cause motherboard failure. I mean that if there is a possible risk of motherboard failure, why would still people remove the battery? Unless they have some sort of power backup connected.

Alienware experts here, please advice. Thanks.
