    Can someone help me out with getting some M17X downloads and BIOS update?

    I found out after I bought my M17X on eBay, I will not have access to support from Alienware directly. Bah Hum Bug!

    I just need the latest BIOS and Command Center... If someone could help me, I would greatly appreciate it. I can even reward you for your trouble.

    Thanks...

    Someone may have to help you if you need a BIOS update, but the drivers are available to the public at the A.W. site. Just go to support, drivers and downloads then select your OS and the 17x and you've got the OEM drivers.

    Of course you'll want some of the more current drivers for things like graphics cards.

    Thanks Rob... I know the drivers are available... But I can't get the BIOS or the newest Command Center.

    Also, I am trying to do a CPU upgrade and I cannot figure out how to remove the Touch Panel. There is a link in the support area, but it wants you to log in order to see it...
