Alright, pretty much at the end of my rope. Alienware 17 R4 7700HQ GTX 1060. Some background, Bought the laptop used had no ram and no hardrive. installed a new 2Tb nvme drive, fresh new install of Windows 10, 32 gigs 2666MHz DDR4. Every so often (every 5 boots or so) it fails to boot and the Bios has an error message Pci out of resources. gets stuck like this for a while and what seems like randomly, will boot correctly for a while. just had it all apart, re-pasted cleaned everything top to bottom (thinking maybe some debris was floating around). Cmos battery is right at 3v flat and no obvious...

Thanks for the add ladies and gents. I suppose ill start with saying I am a Licensed Electrician by trade, family business (been doing it all my life really), seemed to have found a very peculiar interest in resurrecting dead Alienware pc's. Started with an old Aurora R2 I got for free and plagued with software issues. Moved up to and Area 51 R2 that I still use that had just about every problem under the sun (Dead GPU, failing Hard drives, Corrupted Bios Image, questionable ram, so on and so forth) Actually going to try something...
