  I went to very difficult to leave my boyfriend to buy this pc.  First of all, that we now live in different countries.  I live in the United States and he lives in England.  We met on a PS3 game online called DUST 514 and played a lot of pc games together as well.  It is difficult to have to steal it back, but we're getting married soon and I'll come to England.  He needs a new PC for years and was jealous of my Alienware Aurora R4. So I decided to buy one that is still better than mine since it's even greater player I am . This will also allow us to play more games together .

  Then I he wired the money and thought that everything would be ok, but you wouldn't believe the amount of screw - rises, that Dell threw on him!  They had even cancel a bunch of commands of the peoples, b/c, trying to control his spec-ed on Alienware has revealed a major screw-up affecting many clients... (Sorry, it made me delete/modify-this until his order passes through.  Dell representatives were concerned about what happened past.  I don't know if they told people that they had to cancel the real reason why orders and the possible impact on customers with currently Alienware Aurora...  I'll tell you what they have done after that his order is finally through.  Just a hint... inside your Alienware Aurora, check if you own to make sure that everything you ordered is actually there...)  He tried to do this for a week now...  I thought Dell was a little better than that... I knew they had bad grades, but really?...  In any case, it is a complete system stressed mess of it all back and on phone calls and e-mails with different people of Dell.  So I thought that, if it still manages to get the Alienware, maybe I can do even better!

  He really should have an SSD, so I'll get a. He was talking and drool on the maps of Titan, so I'll give him two EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN Superclocked 6 GB GDDR5 2DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI - Express cards in SLI config! : http://pcpartpicker.com/part/evga-video-card-06gp42791kr

  I've never built a pc or tinkered with all hardware.  I want to make this even more impressive pc by adding an SSD.  I think I can install an SSD without any problem (I want the Samsung 849 EVO Mz-7TE1T0BW 2.5 "1 TB SSD)... Oops... I just thought of something... 4 TB SATA is actually 4 2 TB SATAs, put in place with 2 as the mirror...  I think that there are only 4 connectors for extension for SSD/HDD... Is this correct?  I have to replace one of the SATAs 2 TB with the 1 TB SSD?  What configuration I would define then the three SATAs 2 TB?  Would it be to say that he would have only 1 TB SATA? Could I set up so that it has SATA 1.5 TB (with SATAs split with half active and part of the half of the mirror for a RAID configuration)?  Furthermore, I have really no idea what RAID is or fact, just that you only half of total storage really active and the second half is as a backup in case of failure of a disk or something to avoid any data loss total... It is also the thing that I'm confused about that I don't know if it is also possible to install two graphics cards of Titan in SLI configuration on the micro ATX motherboard, I guess its Alienware Aurora will be, and still less 1 Titan.  Yes I know it is exaggeration lol, but the game is very important for us, especially since this is how we met.

  Sorry for the long post... Finally, the MAIN POINT & QUESTION:

  I have to install a different motherboard like the Asus Rampage Black Edition IV: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-rampageivblackedition in order to install two Titan GPU in SLI configuration?  If so, how this O_o...?  Also, I heard that there is a 'girl' Council that controls the Alien FX LED lighting and ventilation Active... How to connect to the new motherboard (if I need to get a new one)?  Also if I get the other motherboard (if this motherboard work with everything) this motherboard would have space for 4 x 2 TB RAID 1 + 0 and the 1 TB SSD SATAs?

  Please answer.  Thanks, ~ value

  to install two Titan GPU in SLI configuration?

  Don't know why you config-ed with two years 780 in SLI if you want two Titan-SLI but this guy did:

  http://en.community.Dell.com/Owners-Club/Alienware/f/3746/p/19512935/20402844.aspx#20402844

  Personally, I'd keep just 780 - SLI, since the two configs end up being very similar to the performance. Either they're going run hot (in the game of max.).

• You want advice in the sale of 4.5 years old Alienware Aurora Alx

  Hi all

  Just for starters I don't have much experience with computers, computer hardware, etc. I intend to do a lot of research before I make any final decision on my desktop but my plan is to sell and look for a laptop. I appreciate all the advice.

  I have an Alienware Aurora Alx desktop computer (late 2011) with an Intel core i7 cpu 920 @ 267 GHz, 6 GB of RAM installed. I have 2 GPU AMD Radeon HD 5670 connected with AMD crossfire.

  I run a ton of different games on this issue at the highest graphics settings without any problem, Civ 5, LoL, cities: horizons, CS, Dota 2, Arma 2 and rocket League to name a few.

  I'm looking for just to get advice on the price range, where to sell, how to find buyers, etc. Any help is welcome and appreciated. Thank you for taking the time.

  You can compare your requirements with those of eBay. It is generally a good way to find a range of prices.

• Alienware Aurora ALX lights does not work master of e/s part #.

  I tried to get the lights on my Alienware Aurora ALX job. The only lights that works are the head alien and the flange. Work, I mean that they are white. When I Command Center, it doesn't even show fan/readings of temperature or light speeds. I think that my I/o card is bad.

  I can not get something to change in Comand Center.

  I tried all the solutions on the forums and nothing seems to work.

  I reinstalled windows 3 times. Nothing.

  I reinstalled Alienware Command Center 6 times (correct version and the different)

  I tried shutting down the computer, unplug the power cord and hold the power button for 1-2 minutes thing, didn't work.

  I went to reset the map using the Green rider, did not work.

  I ran a diagnosis and everything seems fine, don't know if it's testing the Master Control I/O Board.

  I'll order an Alienware Aurora ALX Alien FX / Master Control I/O Board, because I am sure that my i/o board is bad.

  The reference is 02JXP2 and version 1.1 mine said A02

  The white mark on my map of IO said A02, but it has the same part number 02JXP2 and version 1.1.

  My question is can I use a Board with the same part number but it says A04?

  Here is a picture of the map of IO with the A02, I want to buy a economy part number 02JXP2 and at the bottom says A04 instead, but is a version 1.1.

  

  If anyone as any advice before ordering the card / advice to see if I can get the lights work on my computer?

  ThatOne_Gamer

  I don't have the cable that connects the motherboard to the MIO card.

  I'm sure that's why my ect lights do not work.

  Right... If it is not connected, it cannot work.

  1. turn the computer.
  2. remove the black binding screws.
  3 turn the computer over and open the display.
  4. push the module bay ODD.

  All that s. It s not achieved with a screw.

• How to reinstall a Windows 8 dell alienware aurora r4 to factory settings?

  A friend of mine had his PC scammed (guy calls, said you that they are Microsoft and you are infected, enter your PC and then you lock out and ask $ money to let you back in).

  Anyway, he has a PC Dell Alienware Aurora R4 (comes with) running Windows 8 or 8.1 - I don't know but I know that he has not improved/changed anything. The system came with a DVD resource (nothing else).

  Now all we want to do is to restore factory default, there is nothing about this of any importance to save...

  I looked on the internet and found what looks like the right solution:

  -Enter advanced service options (holding shift at the start), select "troubleshooting."
  > "Icon Dell Backup and Recovery" is missing (how could it be?

  Without that, I'm totally stuck...
  Any suggestions? Recommendations? Ideas?

  Thank you

  After that a clean installation of Windows and the drivers of Dell system, Dell backup and restoration facility will create a new recovery partition of your own installation that you can restore as new factory settings.

• Why can't replace my drive hard hp compaq 6200SFF 250gig with the largest disk

  I think I posted this in the wrong section earlier.   I want to replace my drive hard HP Compaq 6200SFF with a larger 250gig. I've done it before with other computers with no problems. I bought a 500gig drive at a local store and makes a picture of Symantec Ghost (option was image-boot) to my 250gig drive.    Then I installed the drive and started again with my ghost drive.  Normally I just launch the function of disk image restore to restore the image of the old drive to the new drive.  When I tried to do with the 6200, very well restored ghost image but as soon as I start on the new drive, I get an error message saying that "windows does not stop normally.   I never get to see the Windows Startup logo and welcome screen or something else than this black screen with white letters.  Windows did end normally when I was last using the 250 GB drive and it will power off.  I can't get the restart to go further - I just get the same error screen - there is no options or choice - all said the message is to call your service representative.  Is there something special about 6200 readers?  Do you need to do something instead of or in addition to making a ghost image?  Is it something in the bios that should reset itself?

  Thank you, Hanspuppa.  I think you have a more recent version of Acronis, I ghost.  However, I was able to solve my problem using the Windows repair disk.  I ghost a disk image (ghost - ib) of my drive hard old man and then did a ' local disk image - of ' put the image on my new drive.  I received the repetitive message "Windows 7 does not normally" but then inserted the windows repair disk and booted from it.  He finds that the boot image on the new drive was bad and repaired.  He did not cela easily - reboot/turn off many times before the finished repair disk, I had and the pc booted from the new hard drive properly.  Now, I can do this with windows 7 and the emulation of hard drive has been to AHCI.  Knit a friend and I tried to do this on an another HP6200 with an image of Windows XP. We did not have a handy XP repair disk, but we went in the settings of the bios under storage on disk and passed the SATA AHCI to IDE emulation.  When we restarted Windows message here once, we supported on enter and him went pc to boot normally.  So the problem revolved around the difference in the AHCI IDE and the boot image created by Ghost.

• Alienware Aurora ALX during POST stop

  The product support page:

  Aurora ALX

  I7 - 920 2.66 MHz

  NVIDIA 240 sometinsometin, can not learn more about the cards themselves

  Delivered in 2010.

  Basically, when the computer starts, the fans kick into high gear, the leds light up everywhere, fans slow gradually over a few seconds and then shut down the computer and restart the cycle.

  I removed the cards, hard drives and RAM.

  When there is no RAM, I get a beep code meaning 2 RAM has not detected, of course.

  The RAM and no video card or the HARD drive, back to the problem of start and stop.

  I guess that the CPU is ok since POST to check the memory live.

  The power supply might be dying, or a problem with the BIOS, or a thermal sensor could be dismantled and act as if the computer is overheating?

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Probably get a better response if you re - post it in the forum of the Club of Alienware .

  Be sure to include the version of Windows.

• A start-up ware Alienware Aurora ALX

  I bought an Alienware Aurora earlier this spring and have noticed that it takes a long time to start.  From the time I hit my power button, until all the icons on my screen are visible and able to work, it takes anywhere from 7 to 9 minutes.

  I can see my desktop in 3-5 minutes, but due to other processes that I can click on Firefox and nothing won't happen for a few more minutes.

  When I bought this computer I went with the RAID 0 option.  I had called and told them I wanted an SSD and a different option of RAID, but was told they don't do that.  So, I stuck with the RAID 0 option.  But have always noticed the slow start has been.  What is indigestion of alienware, like thermal controls?  Or something else that makes it so slow?

  I do not support RAID on desktop computers, but it degraded sounds or something.

  IMHO, I'd install SSD 256 GB (or more)... Although I had to clean install. My computer starts (for usable desktop) in about 20 seconds (with 100 process running).

  http://en.community.Dell.com/Owners-Club/Alienware/f/3746/t/19568143

  Then I would probably break the raid, use a spinner HDD for large game installs and one for data files.

  Am trying to replace has no HD with SATA SSD, but the pins are different (flat LANDSCAPE on the SSD and vertical on the original drive). There is no information on the removal of the black connector. How can I get the new drive to adapt?

• How clone a HARD drive and then use the clone with VMware (as well as Windows works!)?

  I have a system where Windows 7 is installed, and I'm doing a clone of her image of HARD drive, I then want to use in my main with VMware PC, so that I can start Windows 7 at the cloned disk.

  I used Ultimate Boot CD v5.1.1 with which HDD I wanted to clone, and I cloned using EaseUs Disk Copy, which comes with Ultimate Boot CD. The source HARD drive was 250 GB in size which had 3 partitions, while the USB HDD I have attached to the system, which was supposed to be the disk of destination/clone, was 320 GB in size. I chose to create a replica, exact and up to 250 GB of data (partitions, etc.) has been copied exactly, and the rest of space was not allocated. I have now connected this USB HDD to my main PC, shot to the top of VMware Workstation 8 and defined a new Virtual Machine and chose to boot from the USB HDD.

  The result is that when Windows starts (from the cloned HDD inside VMware), I get the blue screen error until I get to the login screen.

  How can I change my methodology so that Windows starts even on the clone? I can change the tools I use, etc.

  You can use the usb drive is
  you only need to patch the system a little registry
  to do this, you start the virtual machine with the usb drive in a restore win7 CD, and then follow the instructions I posted here
  http://sanbarrow.com/p2v2008r2.html

  Patching - easy Variant

  This procedure is used when otherwise the VM would start in a kind of bluescreen 7B.
  This means that VMware is the target and that you configure the computer virtual with VirtualHardware type 7.
  It applies only if the virtual disk is configured like this
  scsi0.virtualDev = "lsisas1068".
  scsi0:0. FileName = "imported.vmdk".

  On the platform target start the virtual machine, newly created in the Windows 7 recovery CD.
  After the initialization is complete, click CMD and run regedit.
  Select HKLM, then Menu > file > load hive.
  Navigate to the Windows directory on the virtualdisk > system32\config and select the file SYSTEM.
  When asked for a name enter p2v.
  Then find the key

  HKLM\p2v\ControlSet001\services\LSI_SAS

  and the startup type of the REG_DWORD value 0
  Select HKLM\p2v, and then click Menu > file > unload hive.
  You can now close regedit and restart.
  The next time you start, you can start in the 2008 R2 system. He should find the drivers and probably need to reboot when finished.

• How to replace a part of the structure XML text with an image.

  I need to replace specific items within my XML structure with a picture and I have problems using the existing XML structure for that.

  I was expecting something as simple as myDoc.xmlElements [0] .xmlElements [0] .xmlElements [0] .silence = new File ("MyImgPath.ext");

  I can use GREP to search the text of each item in my XML structure I want to replace the text, place the image and the result is what I want.  However, in the rare case where the same text as the header, is in one of the paragraphs he too would be replaced by the image and we can have.

  My XML structure is slightly more complicated, but this example contains the necessary elements:

  > Root

  > Group

  > Header

  > Article

  Well, I managed to find a solution to my problem.  I don't know if it's the best way to go about this, but it works for me.

  myDoc var = app.open ('/ / the/path/to/my/doc ', OpenOptions.OPEN_COPY);

  var myDoc.xmlElements = myXML [0] .xmlElements [x] .xmlElements [0];

  var myImg = new FIle ('//path/to/my/image');

  myXML.contents = "; To clear all the text

  myDoc.select (myXML); Selects the xmlElement

  myDoc.selection [0] .insertionPoints [0] .place (myImg); Place the image in the selection
