    Alienware m15 R4 CPU or CPU drivers issue

    Hi. I had a problem with this laptop that under a load it would crash the system, meaning the screen would go black and unresponsive. I have noticed that CPU drivers surrounding area of PCB has changed colour due to high temperature. I have tried to reball the Drivers, but after it laptop wouldn't turn on at all and it would trigger over current protection in the PSU. I ordered and replaced 3 of of 5 Drivers (3 CPU, 2 IGPU?), and it started producing 1.2V again but just for a second. I get led flashing out the CPU failure code. Now I'm not sure whether there is still a problem with the drivers or now the CPU is gone although it's coils have 1.5 oHms

    Alienware 15 R2 Service Tag: DL7NN32 ISSUE (Battery is not charging)
    by Simone Vergani
    Hello everyone,

    I'm experiencing an issue with my Alienware 15 R2 (Service Tag: DL7NN32). The laptop works perfectly when connected to the AC adapter — it powers on and functions normally. However, the battery does not charge. If I disconnect the DC adapter, the laptop shuts down immediately, as the battery is at 0%. I have replaced the battery with a new compatible one, but the issue persists. I also replaced the AC adapter with a compatible one, but the battery still doesn't charge.

    To assist with troubleshooting, I'm attaching two power circuit schematics:

    Alienware Area-51 R2 Boot Loop issue.
    by abajor
    I have the above mentioned Alien Ware A51 R2, currently it randomly will boot into the OS but more often than not it boot loops, I'm assuming there's an issue with power regulation somewhere.
    It comes with Dual 180 Watt Dell PSU, which is ironic since the thing claims it requires 420 watts in the bios screen.

    To rule out the power bricks I've attempted to power up the Laptop with a 330W and 240W Dell PSU at the same time, it still has the same boot loop issue so the problem is definitely the laptop.

    Right now I'm trying to dig through the PDF schematics and Board...

    Alienware 15 r2 error 4 beeps code.ram issue
    by armands0212@gmail.com
    Hi all.i have problem with my alienware 15 r2.basically its keep beeping 4 times at startup-what means there is ram issue.i already tried 10 different ram sticks with different speeds and voltages but nothing helps.tried to flash bios to see if that will help-but no luck.
    Ram sockets looks fine as well,cleaned them and carefully inspected

    So maybe someone had this problem as well with any of dell laptops and have some ideas what else i can do?

    Thanks

    Hi, everybody
    Yesterday I was about to re-paste my laptop, when during the disassembly I noticed that the DC cable from DC plug to the mainboard looked discolored​ and after a bit of prying I found out why...
    I am looking for the socket on the mainboard does anyone have an idea where I could get one? I have already looked in the board drawing and found out the manufacturer (ACES_50493-01301-P01) but it does not seem to be available for purchase...
    does anyone an idea where I could get one?
    PS
    The cable has a part number and can be bought on EBAY but I did not find...
