The illumination effects are in blue on mine, but I just bought an Alienware M15X, 2.4 Ghz processor with 3MB cache, Nvidia GeForce 8800 and, most important of all, an illuminated keyboard. I've got four gigs of Corsair laptop RAM sitting on my desk waiting for it to show up and half a dozen games my current machine (we call it The Brick at home) can't handle in the mail. Processor's not what I'd like it to be, but it'll do for a year or so when I send it back to them and tell them to install something better (when I have a budget again. YUS).

Okay, bragging done. I just had to get that out.

Very nice comp. Eppy.. I'm hoping to get a new laptop myself this year, after I buy my wife and daughter new computers though....:laugh:

Nice, picetag is a bit too high for my taste, tho:(


Yus! - Eppy - 07-31-2008

Pricetag was too high for MY taste, but I did it anyways.:lol:

It came! It came! It came! Yes! Yes! Yes!

*jumps up and down whilst sqealing like a little girl*

I'm installing Skype and Xfire right now, got Firefox running and the like; now I need to do several things, namely:
  • Figure out how to install all of our dated programs related to FL (it's Vista).
  • FIGURE OUT HOW TO OPEN THE FRIGGIN' DISK DRIVE.
That's right, I have NO idea how to open the disk drive. There doesn't appear to be a manual eject; it says to press F8, but that doesn't work. Tried Ctrl+F8, Shift+F8, Alt+F8 and so on and so forth, no luck. Ideas?

Y'know that 50% of the price on alienware computers is for that case and the logo, right? You could have gotten another comp with the same running stats for half the price if you hadnt gone with a brand name.


Yus! - Turkish - 08-14-2008

Try fn+F8.

Why not just wipe out Vista and replace it with an updated XP?


Yus! - Eppy - 08-14-2008

Of course. I did it anyway. I want that logo. I'm an American. That's what we do, isn't it?:unsure:

EDIT: And it worked, thanks, Turkish. I could have SWORN that key wasn't there before <.< >.>


Yus! - Tenacity - 08-14-2008

oh yea, get rid of vista. Windows vista is horrible. XP > Vista.
