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)

  • 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!

  • Laptop running Windows 7 does not start if the external hard drive is connected

    I know what is already on a thread, but here it is again (i.e. thread became uncontrollable anyway and did not offer me solutions). I have an ASUS K53S laptop computer Series and use it as a desktop PC. It sits on my desk and never move, I plugged my larger screen, a keyboard and mouse, printer and external hard drive that I keep all my information on i rarely save to local disk. These things represent more than ports USB to the laptop, I have a hub 4 ports on there also. It is just background information; I mean, the laptop is a must.

    Here's the problem: when I start, as I do every morning, I used to see ASUS inspire Innovation - first of all, persistent Perfection for about 1 second, then the laptop will just get on the job and complete its start-up in about a minute (including login). Which was very good until a few days ago when things started slows down a bit, then I rebooted as I always used to with my Windows XP tour. All closed but return is reactivated and it hung on the opening screen of ASUS and show no signs of getting further. I went outside and continued on another work that does not need a computer, thinking that if I ignored it it would be bit go further, but I came back hours later to find that it is always locked.
    Well after a little, I took the plug my external hard drive, and he continued to start where he left off, like nothing had happened.
    This settled this possibility, but before that, I had established a thing; I need to connect my external hard drive before starting, otherwise it wouldn't connect properly.
    When I managed to finally get both going at the same time (Yes, after some persistence, he recognized the drive but I still would like a solution to this when it exists), I looked at the hard drive and all my files are corrupted or something. photos are not valid, some files that I know to have files in appear them as empty and I can't make any sense at all. Is there someone out there who has had this problem before and fixed, and if so, how?
    My external hard drive is a Seagate 1 TB, if it helps.
    I really want an answer to this, I have data on that disc that I need and I'm not.

    If the problem affects only one PC it says its something specific to this PC.

    Is there traces of yellow warning in Device Manager?

    At whatever it is updated / installed on this PC before this problem, or run a maintenance utility?

    If there is no warning of the Device Manager, then if you perform a clean boot PC http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331796 NB this isn't the manual method the Fixit which helps?

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • What to do with my computer laptop windows vista which does not start? He gets a screen before before her windows error recovery screen restarts.

    Tittle says it all, I tried safe mode and the rest of them, but I can't start

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    See you soon.

  • 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?

  • 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...

  • Satellite L300D - sometimes it takes forever to start or does not start

    Anyone able to help me?

    Sometimes it takes me an eternity to boot up my laptop and sometimes it does not start at all and I get sent to the start screen repair and which translates a unable to repair press ok to turn off the computer message. Whenever I get to start a laptop program always crashes with some answers takes about an hour.

    I used the recovery disks, I did when I was told to do, first used the labtop about 5 times so far. Whenever I've restored the system it works very well for about 1 hour until that I had to install the Windows updates.

    Anyone able to help me on this problem of mine?

    As already written boarder is not easy to say why this is happening. With own laptop preinstalled, obviously, everything works fine.

    So what you need to do is to disable the automatic update of Windows.
    Chose the option check for updates but let me choose when... and before enable update checking the list of all the available updates.
    Be sure only important updates will be installed. Do not install the updates defined as optional.
