    Hi I am a new member and my issue seems to be the same like a few owners of M11x's. I own an Alienware M17x R1, I have downloaded the latest Bios A05 and also updated my Command Centre to the latest Version 2.4.95. My issue is that my Drop Down Box to activate Face Bright has disappeared and as i use it in dark conditions I would like to get it activated. Is there anybody else that has the same issue on the M17x

    The Problem is that with the latest Alienware Command Center 2.5.54.0 the FaceBright option was disabled (maybe because it responds a little faster)

    Contact the people from SensibleVision ( DellSupport at sensiblevision dot com ) or contact user svrep, he might help you, if you ask nicely and get the latest update for it, as i did when i lost facebright (tho i don't have it installed at the moment, since i did a fresh windows install recently.) Had to email him, and he gave me some simple instructions how to get it back to work. :D

    Here's a thread about it:

    Good luck!
