Hey guys , I was wondering if anyone knows how to reprogram a service tag into a mother board. My first unit had a defective screen. So they sent me another. This one had a good screen but there was a gap between to bottom case and palm rest on the left. I swapped palm rests the old to the new. Still didn't fix it. So I got fed up and ended up keeping the old one and swapping the screen to the new one . Now I want to swap the service tags so Dell doesn't ask questions. I noticed a great difference between the two laptops as far as defects. Each had their one. So I basically needed both to build a perfect one. What do you guys think of alienwares build quality. I think it kinda sucks. Last question would be.. anyone know where to get these chassis parts in case I have a similar situation ever again instead of swapping the laptop ? Would m17x r3 parts fit ? Thanks everyone.

I would simply explain the situation to Dell. I did the same thing once, swapping the entire display assembly to the original laptop. They were fine with it.

What was wrong with your original and replacement ?

Contact Dell, there shouldn't be any problem getting this solved.
