    Alienware M17x r4 laptop having problems.


    My laptop has been having problems such as the sound not working sometimes, the camera doesnt work and the battery only lasts 30 mins without the charger. I brought it into a repair shop and they quoted me £160 to fix it. They also told me that the sound was only coming out of one speaker. I was told my laptop has no drivers for windows 10 and i should upgrade to windows 8.1 what should I do? Shall i just upgrade it to 8.1 then will all of my problems go away? Im confused thank you

    :)

    More Alienware M17x R4 Details Leak

    Building on the information already revealed in January, a new Dell-flavored scoop says that the upcoming Alienware M17x R4 (17.4-inch) laptop will offer three display options, one HD+ (1600 x 900), one Full HD (1920 x 1080) and one Full HD 3D. Moreover, this gaming-ready machine is claimed to utilize eDP for LCD communication.

    The Alienware M17x R4 will be powered by Ivy Bridge processors, feature both AMD (Radeon HD 7970M) and NVIDIA (GeForce GTX 660M, GTX 675M) discrete graphics, and will be available in two color schemes - black and red. Still no word on its release but it should arrive in Q2.

    Alienware Laptop M17x R4 - Sound Blaster Recon3Di - headphone jack not functioning properly

    Hello,

    What I have:

    I have an Alienware Laptop M17x R4 with a Sound Blaster Recon3Di and Windows 10.

    Sound Blaster Recon 3Di Driver Version: 6.0.100.2055

    The problem:

    Recently, when I plug headphones in, the sound comes out of the headphones AND the speakers. This happens whether I use the headphone jack or the headphone/mic jack.

    What I've done so far:

    I have attempted to uninstall the Recon3Di and associated drivers.

    I have attempted to have the Dell website auto-detect all software/drivers for updating, but since they aren't supporting Windows 10 on my model of Laptop, none of it works.

    I have gone to the website for the Recon3Di, but there are no Windows 10 drivers for my model (they have Recon3D PCIe, but no Recon3Di for a laptop).

    I'm at a loss. Help, please!
