    So today I decided to open my M11x R3 and take out the screws underneath the battery for the reason that the left hand side of the keyboard was rise much higher than the right side...

    When I took it out I noticed now that the lump is gone! but! the sides now are much higher? like the ESC TAB CAPS LOCK SHIFT are higher than before and on the right side the PAGE UP PAGE DOWN DELETE are higher too? Soo its like higher now on the sides? which makes them touch the screen when closed.

    And when I turned on my laptop it said like No GPU is detected?! I was like WHAT?! i got soo scared because this is my first time opening an Alienware, i was like did I do something wrong?! i restarted and everything was fine... Phew Now i dunno what to do any suggestions? :)

    There are tabs on the left & right side of the keyboard, make sure those tabs are in the correct slots.
