Alienware Aurora R4 does not start

Yesterday morning I shut down my computer to install windows updates (16 to be precise) and when I got up about 8 hours later it was 11. Then I went to work and came home 12 hours later and my computer was turned off. So I thought it's over. Now, when I press the power button that fans turn on, then slow down real low, the light on the side flash on for a millisecond (not even at its maximum intensity) and turn off, and I have no connection to any USB and my right monitor says 'no signal '. The white light on the power button stays on, the green light on the back of the power is solid green. When I opened the door where you put a CD into those light fire. I have no way to access the software to computers. I've tried removing power and hold the power button to drain everything down, which did nothing. I tried to put in a CD that has not worked. It never beeps, without flashing, there he is giving fans and light on power. If someone could give me an idea. HELPPP!

If it was my pc, I would have removed the button battery on-Board 1-5 minutes to clear my bios settings, reinstall it, turning on, see if my screen came if it did, I would get into the bios, make sure that the sata ahci controller is enabled, and then see if Windows starts.

Otherwise, switch off; Remove all the cards from your memory. Turning the power on. If your mthrbrd is still alive, only it beeps in the presence of no memory... a quiet mthrbrd without memory is a bad sign...

  • Alienware Aurora r4 does not start with new graphics card.

    Hey,.

    I have an alienware aurora end of 2012 I believe.

    I currently have a series of 6800 AMD raedon graphics card, processor 3930 r9 k i7 and 8 GB of ram.

    I recently bought a MSI gtx 970 game to replace my old graphics card. I plug this card and it even lights up when I turn on the computer, but however my pc only happens to the start screen where I get the choice after pressing F2 and F12 and then freezes and I can't do anything. I then hear 3 beeps of inside my pc and then it proceeds to a blackscreen where my only choice is to turn it off manually.

    I tried to uppgrade my BIOS without much success (dident make it work), uninstall all graphics drivers from AMD, but nothing has changed.

    So I'm clueless I'm kinda a noob of the pc and have no idea what could cause this and would love help to explain what happens if all goes well if anyone knows a fix.

    THX in advance :)

    You you connected all power cables required PCIe 970? They are probably different config as AMD-6800. You should have 875w PS, but you might need to check that.

    Probably should have uninstalled AMD Driver Suite (catalyst) before removing the card from AMD.

    If card MSI BIOS a double switch, you can try another position.

    Try Mode Windows safe.

    What operating system do you use? Are you running the UEFI BIOS or legacy Mode?

  • New Alienware Aurora R5 does not start. Only 1 day old... Frustrating

    I tried to do the thing of drain of power, did not work. The power button starts with a blue light and then goes to the blinking yellow light. 3 times, then 6. Last night, when he was working he said that alienware needed to make a bios update. I just cut my monitor and let it do its thing at night. This morning I went to turn it on and I had the flashing lights.  For the price I paid for this I wasn't expecting problems occur the day after the day where I got it. I wonder if I should just got another computer in the first place.

  • Update the BIOS Alienware x 51 does not start

    After the BIOS level and rebooted the system, now it seems changed the configuration of startup and 10 Windows does not start.

    I checked the boot options and saw that one selected is now Legacy of start and it seems that Windows 10 works with UEFI.

    Should what boot option I set by default in the BIOS so that window 10 restarts automatically?

    Any help would be apreciated.

    Hello

    Boot option should be UEFI. Disable secure boot, and then on the Advanced tab > Integrated devices: change SATA AHCI mode.

    If the problem persists, press F9 to return to the default settings.

    Let me know how it goes!

  • Alienware X 51 does not start

    Hi, I installed an ssd in my computer and he cloned with the included software of Samsung in order to use it as my boot disk with the hard drive as additional storage space. Everything I did, but when I went into the bios to change the boot drive, that it froze. After waiting a while I hard reset it and now when I start it up I see the Alienware logo and model number, but it stays there and nothing else happens. I can also not press F2 to enter the bios more.

    Is my computer broken or is there something I can do about it.

    Thanks in advance.

    I solved the problem. I removed the cmos for 10 minutes battery and it booted up fine. Thanks for the help tho.

  • Laptop Alienware 17 2016 does not start

    Okay, so I have a problem with my system. I was watching Netflix last night, and all of a sudden, my laptop makes a weird almost cracking and turn off the power. I was not able to start up since then. I have never dropped or dealt with any kind of damage. Although I have it plugged in 95% of the time I use it, I see really any damage that I could have done. I tried to disconnect the battery and drain, but nothing really works. Anything help! Thank you

    Hello

    I guess as a component fried itself and check whether or you can follow the service manual for your laptop and take it apart.  Inspect the motherboard and a circuit for burns or melted areas.  If you find it take a picture for the support of the guarantee.  If you do not have a problem, I just go ahead and try to get the support of the guarantee without the photo.

    But unfortunately, it seems that something fried and needs to be replaced.  (probably the GPU)

  • My Alienware does not start

    Hello.

    Yesterday I played a few games whit my new computer. Today morning, that it does not start when I am pressing the start button. Just a dim on the button and I can hear the motor trying to start but turns like a car. This computer is less than 1 month old. And I want to know if it may be overheating problems? Help, please.

    What Alienware model? One thing that you might try. Unplug the power supply from the wall. Press and hold the power button for about 30 seconds. Plug the power back in and try again. If the computer is only a month, it is still under warranty, so you could give Alienware support a call. The time to couple, I called them I've always had a technician who knows what they speak and speak and understand English very well.

    Alien Autopsy (as well as PC Doctor) does not start when I click the icon.  I appear to be installed properly.  I have uninstalled/installed several times with the same result.  I have a laptop from Alienware 18.

    @Brians4902 thanks for the reply I'm sorry that it wasn't earlier... my computer is down.  Unfortunately for me, your suggestion did not work.  I used Alienrespawn, reduced the system to original settings and re installed everything.  I still don't know what caused the accident.  Thanks for your help.

  • Black MacBook does not start

    I have a 10 year old black Macbook, which does not start when a battery is installed.  If it is connected without battery installed, it lights up, but if there is a battery in it, even if it is plugged in, it will get the startup sound and the screen of the Apple gray, then turn off.  I got a new battery and charge it where the charger turned green, but the results are the same.

    Any suggestions?

    It is difficult to say what is happening with this machine, since the time and wear are considerations. I don't know what version of the operating system that you use, but there is a sequence of things you should do - in order of severity.

    I assume you mean a USB hub? What does do when it's plugged in? It starts successfully when the hub is not plugged? If so, I would say that something is wrong with the hub or there is a problem with the port it is plugged or something plugged into the hub.

    Try to plug it into a different USB port on your Mac.
