    This morning I did a fresh Win 7 install from the Alienware disc included with my M14X and followed the guide listed here -

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/ali...er-install-order-guide-alienware-systems.html

    With the exception of installing the Intel Management Engine Interface or the Intel RST. (My M4 SSD is now running at SATA III) :)

    In my device manager I have one of those pesky exclamation points next to Other devices - "Simple PCI Communications Controller"

    I suspect is due to not installing the Intel Management Engine Interface or the Intel RST? Does anyone know if this is correct?

    Thanks in advance
