Alienware M14x R2 boot problems

I'll just cut to the Chase.

From the start, my laptop gives me the following message is displayed:

Check the connection of the cable.

PXE = MOF Exitting Intel PXE ROM

NO device found Boot

I ran the diagnostic, and it reported a "sound machine".

Edit: Called customer service and the need to have the hard drive replaced.

Means generally he does not find a disk bootable hard (with Windows installed correctly)... so he's trying to boot from the network instead.

  • No boot on Alienware M14x device

    Hi, I got an alienware m14x I been sitting for about a year now because I could not understand how to solve this problem, and I think it's time that I solve this problem, haha.  My computer came with a drive hard seagate momentus xt 750 GB, and it ended up being damaged, so I bought a new HDD, the same that I had before (seagate momentus xt, 750 GB).  When I started the computer upward with the new hard drive in it, it says no bootable device, insert the installation disc, blah blah blah, so I inserted the Alienware windows 7 64-bit installation disk. When I did that, I got to the window of windows install, where it says "select the driver to install", and there is no options to select. When I went through the possible drivers, I clicked on "Boot (x :)), then clicked on the host usb controller 3 renesas electronics (did not work) so the Renesas Electronics 3 USB hub (did not either).»  Honestly, im lost on what to do. Any advice?

    Try to jump the driver option and continue with the installation.

    The USB ports on the left side of the laptop are USB3 and does not let you install Windows from a USB device on them.

    Simplest answer is to use the ports on the right side are the USB 2.0 standard. It's really as simple as that!

  • VGA graphics card cannot start (Code 10) on Alienware M14x

    Recently, I deleted from my hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7 and now all my games (COD Black Ops, FSX, etc.) and other programs such as Google Earth are Mid-use freezing and I have to force to leave them via the Task Manager. There is a sign of warning next to the VGA adapter in the currency manager and I can not find suitable driver to install it with. This driver to I use to install the VGA graphic card? I tried everything from my M14x Resource CD to Microsoft and Dell downloads.

    System Specs:
    Alienware M14x R1 64-bit
    Windows 7 Home Premium
    Intel Core i5 - 2.40 GHz
    Intel HD Graphics 3000
    8 GB RAM
    750 GB hard drive
    Any suggestions?

    You are probably running on the integrated graphics card Intel HD3000.

    Generally drivers for laptop are all downloaded from the web site of the mfg, but sometimes drivers for graphics dedicated on laptops are downloaded from the mfg cards.

    I see that the four existing variants of the M14X using Nvidia GT650m, so if DELL does not include drivers for this card then use the Nvidia download below-
    Note that your M14X may use a different graphics card, so check that you have.

    NVIDIA Driver Downloads - advanced search

    No matter what the pilots are on the CD, you should check for newer versions
    on the DELL site, as the drivers on the CD are almost always up-to-date.

    If you have not done yet also get updates of Windows, but don't forget to
    block the updates of Windows to download and install the drivers.

  • Alienware M14x R2 Ram speed

    Would it not possible to change the BIOS to allow faster than 1600 mhz ram installation? If so, how would I go all this on my laptop of special running Windows x 64 Pro 10? Thanks to everyone for their help!

    Hello

    The highest speed of ram that can support the Alienware M14X R2 is 1600 MHz. We do not recommend set the Bios to operate with greater speed of the ram, which would likely cause the system to crash.

  • Alienware m14x colapses R2 (Control Panel of Sound Blaster, AlienRespawn and IAStorIcon)

    Hello everyone,

    Just a few hours by my Alienware m14x R2 seems colapsing.

    I bought in September 2012 and the system worked very well since... I didn't do any system of Respawn (the application of restoration of the integrated plant) for almost two years and a half!

    A few minutes ago I was using my Alienware as I always do: nothing else, except for updating TeamViewer version 9 to 10 (I honestly don't think that could crash my system like this) and the automatic update of the Dell SupportAssist software (Besides, I don't like this program at all).

    Then, I just turned off my laptop and half an hour after that, I start getting an avalanche of mistakes whenever I start Windows. The screenshot below shows what I always, whenever I start Windows:

    I already tried to return the system to a previous time in the past (using the Windows tool), but it was not successful (and he really SAID that he was not successful).

    What am I supposed to do? Someone knows something similar after the update to the latest version of Dell SupportAssist?

    Thank you in advance.

    Because of all the errors that you have found my best recommendation will be to reinstall windows, but you can try to update the framework to see if you are able to correct the error of the Intel Rapid Storage Technology technology.

  • keyboard replacement for old keyboard for Alienware M14x R1 R2

    Hello

    recently, my old keyboard on my Alienware M14x died and I had to buy a replacement. not knowing about two different types of keyboards (or maybe even three), I bought the keyboard instead of R1 R2. Thus, for keys (a, s, d and e) do not work. It is anyway possible to have the keyboard does work (maybe to install drivers or reprogram a chip)? the alternative is to get the correct keyboard, which will cost money and time. Thanks for any help.

    Unfortunately there are no drivers that can make the keyboard to work. I will recommend you to sell one and try to get one for the M14XR1.

  • Tecra S10 - 123 and Linux Mandriva boot problem

    I have a Tecra S10 - 123 for two months and wanted to install Mandriva on it (I have no experience with Linux...). I burn the Image on Cd image .iso file and changed the bios settings to boot from the CD-ROM. It works without problem, but Mandriva stops to boot from the Live Cd once the kernel is loaded.

    What can I do?

    Maybe it's a SATA question, have you tried to set the SATA Mode in the BIOS to "COMPATIBILITY"?

    Work the other flavors of Linux? Maybe Ubuntu will install properly.

  • Satellite A660 - boot problems USB after BIOS update

    Hello

    I own a Toshiba Satellite A660 and have recently updated the BIOS with the latest version (1.80). Since then, the laptop freezes on the splash screen (the one with the Toshiba logo) whenever a USB flash memory is attached.
    It works without the memory flash connected and if I connect it after I enter the starting or the BIOS Setup menu. I can even start her like that.
    As far as I'm concerned, this is a serious regression. Is there a way I can downgrade to the version of the BIOS, or any other way to solve this problem? I rely heavily on external USB drives.

    Kind regards
    Claudiu.

    Claudiu salvation,

    That is really interesting, I have to say so I tested on my new Satellite A660 and Transcend 4 GB USB Stick. Well, I also installed 1.80 BIOS but I can t view this problem HARD drive is set as first boot device and all the other BIOS settings are default. The Toshiba screen and Windows computer starts as usual.
    No problem at all!

    Have you tested different USB devices?

    In General, it is not possible to downgrade BIOS. It is possible to an authorized service because Toshiba on page you can download the latest version only but I doubt it s a bug in the new version of BIOS because it works on my A660.
