Sorry to hear you are having trouble with your system. Feel free to send me a PM with your accound details to assist you on this matter.

The flaver of area-51 is important, the Area-51 tag just means it's an intel cpu.
Mine for instance is an area-51 m7700, the m7700 is the important part for drivers.
If you're lucky and are the origional owner Armando can fix you up. If you're like me and bought it used, you're going to have a grand old time with support, as last time i checked alienware support was of the Origional-owner-or-gtfo type.
I do have some drivers and a link to some more, but without knowing what system you have i don't know if i can help. -

not home atm. but with the drivers ive saved to you think everything will be fine when i install them. i cant even view pictures atm on the machine!
any idea what base system device is? -
no idea but imma google till i find out ....you gotta tell me if there working though
-
-
nope never even heard of it till you asked me for drivers

I hear its common for alot of alienware hardware to have drivers that windows doesnt pick up. sucks esp when linux picked some up that windows missed -
yea well AW is lazy and linux is open source so there is thousands of people helping ....so i hope it would work
plus its microsoft what do you expect ?
so all the drivers work?
do you have a sd card reader in there ? i think that may be your base system device
if you do have one then please test it. and let me know asap
