  1. Computer r12 AURORA alienware freezes With Audio Loop/Stutter and it requires Hard Restart


    So recently I've had this problem with my desktop. It seems to be happening mostly when I'm either playing a game, listening to music, or watching a video. The laptop just completely locks up, freezes entirely, and the sound loops/stutters on the last sound that was being played endlessly, but the desktop never crashes, it just keep on freezing until I give it a hard restart.Someone else had a similar problem with an answer provided which was to:"run the System File Checker to check if there are corrupted files which might be causing this problem.To run it, follow these steps:Open Command Prom

    Restart Required Loop

    I'm not normally a fan of re-opening old threads. But since I ran into this issue with audio software on a brand new Alienware PC, the thread is apparently still applicable to at least some degree. The troubleshooters in Control Panel fixed the issue for me. Thanks, zbook.

  3. Dell Alienware Aurora-R3 & Windows 10 Build 1709 (Fall Creators Edition)

    As I said in my question, the make and model of my PC is Dell Alienware Aurora-R3. That computer is NOT Windows 10 compatible, but may users have learned that the main problem is that the computer freezes when the computer reboots during the windows 10
    installation, and this can be avoided by simply shutting down whenever the computer starts to restart. I had no problem running Windows 10 until version 1709 came along. I was hoping someone who also had a Dell Alienware Aurora-R3 had come up with a work-around.

    Alienware says it's Microsoft's problem that my Aurora R3 will not upgrade to Windows 10

    I was also having an issue like this, I would follow these steps but I really don't want to dual-boot. Do you think Microsoft (because I know Alienware wont :/ ) will take steps to help us (people with alienware aurora r3's) out? I really like the look of
    Windows 10 but to be unsupported without having to perform a little trick on the setup (hold down the power button when the computer is restarting in setup, wait about 10 seconds then start it back up again; basically a manual reboot) is a shame.

    This is the post on reddit on the issue, people have had issues with their R3's.
