Beware when using resources DVD. It *probably* can damage your FX as well. (Using resource dvd for m15x surely will damage the FX, not really sure about m17x resource dvd). Just download all drivers from DELL instead of using resources dvd.

Installing .net framework is little bit tricky on Win7. Google about it, you will find lots of useful information.

Good luck!

P/S : If your FX still malfunction after re-install the .net framework, you probably need motherboard replacement cry.gif

or

Find somebody can fix it. Ebay (US based) offers service to fix your FX without mobo replacement.

Any Malaysia based?

Not sure about Malaysia based. Your best chance is renew/extend the warranty, get the mobo replacement.

good afternoon. hi im facing an unknown problem right now with my m14x r2.

The problem is:
when i turn on the laptop, it works fine till reach the desktop view (explorer) my security essential doesnt work, my network doesnt work, in fact when i try to manage the drivers from my computer it hangs but the explorer still running normally.

My attempt

I have to restart my laptop into safemode+networking and it works fine, the anti-virus, wifi etc.. then i did a system restore and it works normally again..

but when i shut down and reopen the same thing happens. is anyone here facing the same problem? how do i fix this? please

Probably malware and virus issues bro. Backup your data first then do the clean install! This is the best way if something like this happened to me. rclxms.gif

Woah! If Dell quotes you RM 500 for motherboard replacement, go for it! It's cheap imo for m17x! rclxms.gif

maybe not :/ this mobo is rare in taobao.com.

Not sure about taobao.com , but before i ordered trackpad with pchub dot com , after 1-2 weeks waiting , they sent me broken trackpad..Have to contact them back bla bla bla and bla wait for shipping again , its PITA. So RM 500 (probably include installation?) is very good deal! Dell quotes me RM1k+ for my m15x motherboard.

uh? there are changes but not much. it's better not to upgrade i think. (i am used to w8; so it's fine to me)

things that i know:
1. wei is gone;
2. now poweroff function can be accessed via win+x menu;
3. there is the start button that let you navigate between metro and desktop (well, it's kind of pointless to me because it's just the same as you pressing the win key);
4. the built-in backup is also gone.

still new in 8.1 so not much i can say about this.

You should add :

5 : Buggy
6 : Horrible!

Going to stay away 8.1 for a while.

yeah 1-yr normally will be quoted much higher. it's better to go for 2 years or more.
