Please add me under the M15x owner list. Just got mine from Dell yesterday.

IT IS AN AWESOME PIECE OF HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE!!

Edit: Anybody has any suggestion of a good laptop backpack to bring this around? It is quite big, and heavy as hell

Alienware Orion Backpack?

Any other suggestions? Or you can point me to a place to look here in Malaysia.

The Orion Backpack? How do you get it if you forgot to preorder with the laptop?

OK, now i am not sure if this is supposed to happen.

When playing Black Ops, why does the screen sometimes flicker? It usually happens when there is a lot of yellow on the screen and transition from light to dark. Anyone can give any comments?

I had that problem before.  The Graphics driver is too old.  259 if I'm not mistaken.  Downloaded and installed the latest one from NVIDIA (you need to mod the infs to get it to install though) and all is fine.  Only drawback is that the brightness control no longer works.

Added on February 24, 2011, 11:25 amWhy not get a discrete bag like Pierre Cardin, Samsonite etc.?
I have an Orion bag but felt uncomfortable as everybody were staring at me with menacing black bag.  Not to mention the alien head bobbing around too... biggrin.gif

I do recommend the Pierre Cardin ones, about the same price as the Orion and it looks classy with attracting unwanted "negative" attention.

What do you mean by modifying the infs? What do you need to modify?

Pierre Cardin? Any pics and info where to find them?

If you guys have the facebook page, can you provide a link here, please? smile.gif

And guys, when you bought the Alienware from Dell, they said they will include all the wallpaper and themes in right? Where can you find them?

Take a look at his topic, he already state the service charge for installation.

http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=903189&hl=

Just wondering, which one is better for a screen protection? Matte or clear gloss? Opinions?

Guys, am in a bind here. I have installed 2 worlds and also played dead space 2. What I find most vexing is that the gameplay tends to stutter some of the time and makes for low fps.

Any advice on how to improve fps? Either by turning off some options? Bloom, shadow or HDR needs to be turned off?Or is there is a software to throttle the GPU all the time when playing a game?

Come on Alienware! Make it worth my money!

Nice on adding the emoticons. Question, the MSI afterburner only works for MSI card is it? Or any card?

FYI, I am using GTX460M

Help!!!!! (I think I am going to get laugh at for this)

How do you remove a squashed ant inside your LCD screen? Any suggestion?

RIght now am on the phone with Dell technical support already.

Edit: Just got off the phone. Looks like they need to replace my LCD screen with a new one. YEAY!!
