Aurora-R4 upgrade issues & troubleshooting

Hello, Alien Techies!... I come to you, here, now, humiliated and who have need of the councils for the control box... Let me start by listing my "original specs' followed by 'changes' everything / ALL next to or after (directly below), because I think it may be relevant to my points and questions.  Please note that I started at the time of the purchase with a modified version and upgrade to my request, and they DO NOT take into account the standard.

MATERIAL - Alienware Aurora-R4 (X 79 with chassis ALX); 3rd gen - Intel Quad Core i7-3820 3,60 GHz CPU (* overclocked @ 4.1 GHz, Quad Core, 10 MB Cache), Seagate 3TO HHD 7200 RPM, 16 GB of RAM (excluding max. 32 GB) - 16 GB Dual Quad Channel (4x4Go) * overclocked DDR3 @ 1600 MHz, nVidia / GeForce GTX 660 @ 1.5 GB - nVidia SLI - AMD Crossfire (power connectors: 2 6 2 8 pin pins / power Bus Port) (: 2 PCI X 16 slots / dual video card supports 300 watts per card & single card 600 Watt), Creative Sound Blaster PCIe-X-Fi, integrated Real Tek ALC892 Codex 2 burner (DVD Blu - Ray &), media card reader 19-in-1, Real Tek Integrated10/100/1000 GB wireless network card MS3871 Bluetooth Wireless Combo WLAN802.11b/g/n, Power Supply is 875 Watt Muliti-GPU power supply approved and Micro-ATX card mother 07JNH0.  SOFTWARE - BIOS A06, Windows 7 Home Premium.

MISE_A_NIVEAU / REPLACEMENTS - 1.) SSHD 4TB 5900 RPM w / 64 MB of Cache Memory & 8 GB NAND Flash, 2) Windows 10 home edition, 3.) BIOS A11... ONLY!  With the exception of a few small updates driver, I'm sure.

My problems to surface around Thanksgiving, Christmas, he's 7 months after 3 years I had bought my Alienware.  It was a result of my first major update from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  My PC don't recognize even 10 Windows!  Instead, it / PC been force-fed Windows 10 conversion therapy through Remote Support assistance technique Microsoft.  Shortly after, in the week, was my first MOMENT BIG FREEZE, when out of nowhere, while surfing the internet entered my systems.  I could not even Ctrl + Alt + Delete for task register, fans revved up, and I couldn't do anything else the latest kind of hard reboot - disconnect the PC from socket... It would not happen again for another month or several weeks. And when my PC finally woke from its slumber of drunk and lazy, very, very slowly restarting black screen, try it is harder to take Windows or reject.  It took more time, once the main screen is running, and once he finds Windows.  My processors working OT, until finally about 15 minutes after its start in resting peacefully, the demon banished.  I could play, no problem, but when I was on a browser on the internet, and / or when I arrived 'Automatic updates of Windows' chaos, the demon returns, and the Big Freeze returned.  I know all this only in hindsight, looking back, 20-20. 

It would increase only slowly, until the moment where 6 months that I have upgraded to Windows 10, she felt more fits, between half an hour sometimes a few hours at the end.  She's trying to restart, but seems completely Catatonic and unable to meet black screen alien find GOLD Windows and about every other day to once or twice a day.

I replace my hard drive, after he died, and he had pretty much cloned it from the backup of the my new SSHD, listed above.  It's now my second update in less than 2 weeks, in the second week of June 2016 now.  My third update level, all now a few weeks apart, with BIOS A06 to A11.  I don't know why or how that is never presented as lacking a upgrade.  I did a lot of checking, cleaning, defraging and even added a new Trend Micro Security to protect my investment.  AND I STILL see the hiccups like those from my old hard drive.  Nobody seems to be willing or able to diagnose this problem as a problem that pre-existed before my new hybrid Solid State drive... A few days ago, I received an error message through troubleshooting with Trend Micro and do an F5 accumulated prior to departure.  * The error Code 2000 - 8314 and Violation 119539 "- something like CPU error msg thermal 100 c 100 c thermistor PC exceeds the thermal limit out of reach."  I do not know.  Is this one of my chipset, processor or fan around my motherboard?

I want to apologize for this drag all this, but I believe that the devil is in the details.  So, thank you for your patience.  And I appreciate any input at all in my ongoing troubleshooting.  I spent enough money in the last two weeks.  And my own brain is pretty fried at this stage of troubleshooting by internet.

Now, A QUICK or a possible upgrade issues that I hope might actually alleviate part of the symptoms or even problems entirely... I would like to top off my 32 GB maximum RAM with of 4x8Go.  It seems that thought that there are very specific for my Alienware sticks, and I have to stay with this margin does not overwork anything.  I also want to do it myself, as I did with my other Dell Dimension 4700 PC.  I just need directions to wait for him, because I have other fires to put again AND / OR maps specific 8 GB RAM can I work with my R4 Aurora?

"Play hard and go home!"

REMOVE ALL OverClocks (I suggest permanently if you want a stable system that lasts a long time)

Run Diags ePSA. Repair everything falls down before continuing.

http://en.community.Dell.com/Owners-Club/Alienware/f/3746/t/19530277

Make sure that the machine is not overheating and SMART is good.

Use usb.iso to try a clean install of Windows 10/64-bit (for one SSD/HDD Virgin) to rebuild from scratch. Perhaps the migration of drivers and legacy applications during the installation of the upgrade was not 100% or you have an incompatible application in Win10 or the installed driver.

http://en.community.Dell.com/Owners-Club/Alienware/f/3746/t/19679918

A real SSD is faster than any hybrid SSHD. I love real 240 GB SSD as boot C: and install only Windows and main applications on this subject.

16 GB Dual Channel Quad (4x4Go) is very well - don't mess with it.

Never used Trend-Micro-Security. On Win10/64, I use Windows Defender & firewall.

Maybe try this:
REMOVE ALL OverClocks
Disconnect existing SSHD (becomes a backup).
Install SSD 240 GB (or 100% perfect player)
Clean-install Win10-64 to blank disc
Mainly use Microsoft only provided drivers from Windows Update
Install only Win10 updated applications, use Windows Defender & firewall free for now
See how it works.

  • Aurora-R4, upgrade from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1?

    Hi all

    I have a R4 Aurora bought June 2014 that came with Windows 7. Now, I got a license of 8.1 and want to update. I've seen a few posts showing troubleshooting when you upgrade. Can someone tell me if I can perform a new installation or I can't? Is there something I'm doing before the upgrade? I would like to have all the applications from dell that came pre-installed in my Windows 7 such Alienware Command Center, etc...

    Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you much in advance.

    Better to save your data and clean install Win8, Win8 certified drivers from support.dell.com site followed. Go to Aurora R4 and select Win8 as operating system. Towards the end, you will install the compatible version of Win8's Command Center.

    What other Dell applications do you or really need? I can't think at all. In any case... they will be older versions of Win7. Best just to move and replace them if necessary. Yes, which?

    Hi Arif,

    Thanks for the reply.

    Are you facing any problem during the installation of Windows updates? If Yes, do you have any error codes?

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to download and install the latest Chipset driver on the manufacturer's Web site and check if it helps.

    http://us.gateway.com/GW/en/us/content/drivers-downloads

    Method 2:
    I suggest you to use Visual keyboard to type the password on the login screen and check if it works.

    Use the keyboard to the screen (OSK) to type

    Method 3:
    If the issue occurs when you use the keyboard on the screen, this could be a problem with the keyboard. I suggest you to connect an external keyboard and check if it works.

    Hope this information helps. Reply to the post with an up-to-date report of the issue so that we can help you further.

    No, you can download the latest version of common for Vista modules because the Toshiba has not released drivers Vista for the Qosmio G20

    This error message is displayed on your laptop, because the common modules only work with XP!

  • Qosmio F10: RAM upgrade issue after replacing the motherboard

    In 2006, when my F10 - 128 fell down as a fault of the video card, Toshiba has replaced the motherboard (865 PM) of my F10 by a new one with the video card installed in Go 6600.
    When I came back, I noticed that the same RAM modules have been installed (2 x 512 MB DDR 333 Mhz) as I previous had on the old motherboard.

    Then, I assumed that I could easily upgrade to DDR2 RAM, I realized that this type of RAM supported by the new motherboard installed (915 PM?). But the modules DDR2 Ram (Kingston 1 GB SODIMM (KVR533D2S4 - 1 G) 533 MHz) that I ordered is simply not in the storage media... The notch in the module is placed differently that the modules of RAM DDR.

    If the jury has been replaced by a newer version, with the video card Go 6600 (PCIexpress), how is, I have a Council that can not support DDR2?

    Here, I am really confused. Someone at - it advice please?

    > If the jury has been replaced by a newer version, with the video card Go 6600 (PCIexpress), how is, I have a Council that can not support DDR2?
    I think the jury is still supported DDR2 memory modules, but the allocation of the memory pins could be different.

    You should contact the ASP in your country and ask for the compatible modules.

    I installed this new RAM carefully and booted up my laptop, only to be greeted by a blank screen / black.  I have re-installed the new RAM and rebooted my laptop, leading to the same result.

    I contacted CCL Computers Ltd, who recommended that I return the RAM to them for testing. However, they also mentioned that I should contact the constructor (HP) and ask them - your "QVL" (list of qualified suppliers) for successfully piloted ~ known RAM.

    So, with the above in mind, can you recommend a tested / experienced 4 GB of RAM running on my laptop, please?

  • The graphics card upgrade issues...

    I recently bought this graphics card: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-Details.asp?EdpNo=5660536&sku=A271-5774

    Also, I advanced and bought this power supply: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/searchtools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=3276573

    I own a HP Pavilion a6414 and this is my first video/graphics card upgrade.  I did a good bit of research and I know that I have the PCI E x 16 appropriate for the card slot and the power SUPPLY 650 Watt PSU to insert in the ATX case. I measure the UAP present btw.  I'm a little worried about the upgrade of the power supply, because I read somewhere (I think it's here on this forum) that some HP tech rep said a person who upgrade the power supply could not be performed on the a6414, but I don't see why not.

    My other concern is about the speed of the processor to the graphics card and possibly voltage problems, but I think the power SUPPLY Ultra PSU will be fine.  Either that it is my first time to play with the graphics card and PSU, I'm looking for advice on the compatibility between these three components, i.e. the model, the card and the power supply.  Any input will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance...

    I installed everything today and it works like a charm.  I had read so much about the HD 5770 not recognized by HPs and the test of the power supply, but everything worked so far.  I bought a LG LED 20 "monitor today as well, and everything looks great.  Thanks for all the advice guys...  The links you provided helped with Dave BIOS, thanks.

  • Windows7 and Installation/upgrade issues updated Itunes: HKEY errors

    I am running on a new laptop with Windows7 64 - bit OS.  I have already installed Itunes v9.0.3.15 on this computer, but when I open Itunes I got the following error:

    "Warning.  ITunes has not been installed correctly.  If you want iTunes to be able to retrieve information from the internet CD, you should reinstall iTunes. »

    Very well, but every time that I try to uninstall or update Itunes by installing the latest version, I get the following error at halfway through the installation process, on which the installation rolls back immediately and I'm stuck:

    «Could not open key: HKEY_Local_Machine32\software\classes\.pcast.»  Check that you have sufficient access to that key or contact your support team. » 

    I've looked everywhere.  I saw a lot of similar questions, but none exactly the same thing on other forums, and no resolution to other questions helped.

    I don't have this key in my registry editor because it is a 64-bit OS, so there is no "HKEY_Local_Machine32" only "HKEY_Local_Machine."  I have ensured that I do infact have full access to the 'HKEY_Local_Machine\software\classes\.pcast' , but the installation/uninstallation process is looking for the machine32 key.  NOTE: I am trying to install the 64-bit version of Itunes.

    The itunes forums have not proven useful.  If anyone has experience/solved this problem, I would certainly appreciate any suggestions.


    Hi bburkhart,

    To register permission number, install and run SubInACL to your computer to fix the permission issues.

    You can get the download here:

    See this for example:

    iTunes 9 install on Windows 7 64 bit

    http://discussions.Apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2153424

    That should do the fix.

    Before you run the SubInACL tool, please make sure that you take a backup of your registry and also create a restore point.
