• Alienware 14 Fx lighting problems

  Hello, I do not know really what to put as the subject, so will have to do. However, I have problems with the lights of FX. It seems that, out of the blue, they decided to not work. The lights for the; Keyboard, mouse pad, power, Logo, button...

  The only time wherever they work is when I go to the command center and choose a new color. Then close the command center, he will ask "Do you want to save this new theme" or something. If I choose Yes, FX lights will appear for just a second and then go back off. And they stay?

  Now, I did some research and I did not see the problem, however, I tried unistalling the command center and put it back, and it didn't fix it. So I don't really know what it is. I ran something question detect the Dell page. But he said everything was fine. I also checked if it was one of my energy, and I have it on high performance. I went from balanced high performance, to test, but that solves nothing.

  The only thing I could think of, but I'm not sure that it would have something to do with it, I went from my driver intel NVIDIA recently, but I doubt that it would have something to do with it.

  Help, please? Thank you.

  Edit:
  If it is a question where can I get just to do a factory reset, I need a guide on how to back up and restore, simply because I don't want to lose any important work I have, etc.

  First of all, is to make a backup.    There are ways to do it without having to buy the upgrade of Alienware ReSpawn.    Might look at things like:

  Because I buy Seagate drives to make the back to the top on.  I use the free product provided by Seagate to get a clone of my hard drive.   We install the Seagate Wizard disk to a work computer, and it allows you to create a stand alone backup CD which will make clones and restore the operating system to the clone.

  If you have not done so, it is also the time to create Windows restore DVD and CD repair of Windows, which is available through Alienware Respawn or Windows itself.

  All having a back up is always a good idea.   I want to make more than a backup, if I'm going to fool around with the operating system that you are about to do.   I like to make sure that at least one of my backups is a Clone, I distrust so backups of call time interval, as they find unique and creative ways to fail.  Even if they are necessary when there are just trying to permanently keep a backup and not running out a huge amount of space external hard drive.

  Search to find all the Activation/registration codes for all software products you have and put them together in a USB key and maybe on paper as well.  It's amazing how these things get lost when I was sure that I already have them in exactly one place.  I know that if you have Microsoft Office, if you did not buy Microsoft themselves, that Dell needs a very good reason for you give the activation code again.   (He came on a piece of paper in the box with the computer originally).   Similarly, make sure you have the Windows registration number.      Maybe need a registration code for you Antivirus and other things you buy, such as games.

  Then I suggest that you save a copy of the registry, as it is right now.   And make a point of checking system.   I haven't looked, but I think that Alienware support has a few really good writeups on how to do these things that is far superior to what I might write.   Plus, get a list of the ways to start the Alienware to different modes before you crush the BONES.

  After all, in my case, as I am still under warranty, I know that the best thing is to call Alienware technical support, let them Remote Desktop and see if they can fix it while you watch.

  If Alienware Tech support can't help, or you have no guarantee.  Then, it is possible to restore the operating system without rewriting of your personal data.  PHEW.  Most likely, the computer has made a point of system check when it installed a new video driver.   It is also possible to reinstall all the operating system at reception on the first day of computer and do not damage your personal data, i.e. without formatting the entire drive.    However, all third-party programs will not be there when the computer returns to the top.  If you need to reinstall these third-party programs and save/activate them.

  I think the guys at tech Alienware will come along and give you links for how to do to save a copy of the registry, how to start reinstalling the operating system and all their support stuff.

  What they can not mentioned, if you try to start the computer and press F to start one of the special programs associated with tinker BONES.  We often have to hold down the control key first, then press the power button.   You bought a fast computer, and it is faster than your ability to press the Power button and get to the function key in time.

  Best wishes.

  I should say one more thing, if you reinstall the operating system, you start the computer, and if the computer can find a way to connect, it is likely to interrupt from the desktop computer and the screen go black and remain black during the download of the OS and install things, like all Windows updates.  I think it's all night.  Gets the confusion he uses any encrypted WiFi connection that you previously had.  (Yes, funny, just reinstalled the operating system, she kept the password to an encrypted connection.)   and also because the computer screen can go into rest mode, so you could get to the top and the screen being black, while it is in fact not download, but you wait to tell him to turn it back on.   Do not let throw you the black screen, it's a normal part of Windows re-installation of updates.   Be better if it had a splash screen telling you what was going on.  I hope that ten Windows is better.   Sigh.   Could give you some comfort if you disable WiFi before you find the BONES, also unplug the cable.   then you should come first in the initial window more directly, but you will have to attend updates anyway. and black screen, to the

  Hello

  In the right corner of the Windows taskbar, you can have a little alien head icon. If you click on this icon, you should see a few options here. One of the options is 'Dim lighting areas. Try clicking on this option to see what is happening. We have a Dell article that explains the different settings you can check when there are problems with the AlienFX lighting.

  (1) uninstall/reinstall command center. You can refer the links that might help to uninstall below:

  http://Dell.to/1aw3dvr

  http://Dell.to/1aVUFlp

  Select the version of operating system and find the command center in the application tab and download

  (3) now, restart the computer and check if the problem is resolved. If not you are trying to create a new theme in AlienFX (open Command Center-> enter AlienFX-> closing of the current theme-> create a new theme).

• Alienware 17 FX lights

  Hi, I recently bought an alienware 17. It works fine, but yesterday the lights stopped working. When I change the FX profile or make a quick change, the lights go on for a few seconds then turn off. They light up also for a few seconds when I turn on the laptop.

  I did a bit of goggling and many questions, I found people with the old model. 17 x, but I have found really do anything with the 17 news.

  Things, I tried to solve the problem...
  Update the BIOS A05, made a diagnosis of the complete system. Came back ok, reinstalled the software order Center (3.0.29.0). Next step I guess is a BONE re - install?
  Someone else has this problem or could help? I think of the support call. I got 14 days.

  In random desperation?

  After I've finished typing the last post, I rebooted for the 50th time after installing windows updates and reinstall the control center. This only got my lights work again... at least for the moment. I access quick-changed my color. 2 seconds and then black again. I activated "twilight zones" and the lights actually CAME. ? And they stayed on. I disabled "twilight zones" and the lights became brighter and stayed on. I would like to know if it works for you. I think I'll make sure all mirror is off later. Seems that there is an insidious bug with it.

• (Redirected) Alienware x 51 r2 problem.

  Hey everyone will so in the title I'm having some problems with my x 51 r2, I had no problem for over 3 years now.

  Going where it started, playing games to turn off completely.

  I will try and keep it short, I opened my case press the power button / fans spun for a second then turns off but the power light stayed on. I took out the graphics card and now it keeps cycling between sub and turned off guard until I draw from the power of it. And plug the card in it goes back to just the power on light.

  So I wonder is this the power supply itself? The map supply or have I managed to kill my graphics card but yes I am open to all thoughts about what I have to do.

• Laptop Alienware M15x Command Center problem

  Hello. So I have an Alienware notebook M15x, and recently I had formatted and upgraded to Windows 10. However, for reason of sound, Command Center can't work. Nothing lights up, which means that the keyboard, audio ports or anything like that, but what it seems the touchpad above the keyboard works. I looked in Google but have found no solution. I saw something on the .NET Framework, but still no solution. I have attached a picture of my .NET Frameworks, if anyone can guide me step by step on how to solve exactly this problem it would be greatly appreciated.

  

  Thank you.

  I contacted dell... which gave me the run around to talk to support technique alienware. I contacted them. They basically told me to * it in nicer terms. I'm over material, it is not taken in charge and buy new equipment through a 3rd party. Basically... a bit of code to patch the write command is too a gene and I should lose money on a new computer. Funny... it works fine and works all of my games.

  Dear customer,

  Thank you for your recent contacts.

  Your hardware is no longer supported. We recommend that you check with a dealer of 3rd party for parts and service for your system.

  If you need drivers and applications on your system please visit our website where you can find the latest drivers for your system.

• Difficulty low Alienware 17 R2 lights

  Hello

  I recently bought an Alienware 17 r2 or the new edition of 2015. It's a great computer and one of my favorite features is that you can edit the lights that shine when you touch the touchpad or keyboard. When I got it the lights that they were surprisingly light but 2 days ago, they have become very weak. I wonder if theres is something that changes their brightness because I bought this computer 4 days ago and if sa is already damaged, I'm really crazy. Please help me solve this problem.

  Thank you

  :)

  I moved your message Alienware Club, where other Alienware users may have had the same problem and can publish what they were doing to solve the problem on their systems.

  I'm including this paper which helps out Alienware FX and going on the way to solve problems where the lights don't are not marketing at all, that they are thin, or situations where you cannot change the lights.

  The book is long enough, but has some good steps.  You can run AlienFXTester, here's a YouTube to review the process.

  I hope this helps and answer please if you continue to have problems.

• X 51 R2 light problem

  Hi guys,.

  Hope I'm writing this in the right section.

  I recently bought an Alienware X 51 R2. Turn on the PC for the first time, the lights on the system were all white. It seemed unusual for me at the time.

  Since then, I have tried all kinds of ways to change colors through the command center (think I reinstalled only about 4 times today already!). I had all the diagnostic tests and tried everything available on the Dell site, but nothing does, and I always remained with white lights.

  Anyone who has met or heard of this problem before? It sounds like a hardware failure or y at - it an easy solution that I have not yet tried?

  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Make sure you check out the staves of connector for lights and the ports on the motherboard as well. On my X 51 that I had replaced MB and after the panels LED USB ports were not working. It turns out the USB cable to the motherboard header was offset by 1 pin.  I moved it, then everything was fine.

  Hello
  Welcome to the Forums of Discussion of the user.

  First of all. the white dots that you see in the picture are the reflections of dust of your flash.
  Second, if you take pictures of distant in a very dark frame objects, auto and flash are not recommended as you try to keep light natural lots you can.

  Here are two basic settings help you to: ISO and EV (opening)

  The ISO is a speed rating for recording media that incorporates an image sensor that receives light. Even when the exposure is the same images differ according to the ISO.

  EV

  If manual is a bit too advanced, try to use the parameter of 'Twilight' or 'twilight pocket. "
  These scene selections will allow you to shoot scenes of night to a far distance (your pier is a good example of it) without losing the dark atmosphere of the surrounding area.
