How to recover from a bad flash for Alienware M18X R2
ErikO replied to Scott Matusow's topic in Alienware M18x / AW 18
Hi, yes, just to update my previous post, it can take a LONG time for it to recover. But it works. I'd say something more than 6 mins if I remember correctly. And what a happy day it was to see the M18x R2 post again. Thanks again. -
How to recover from a bad flash for Alienware M18X R2

Hi, I tried updating to A08 today, and it bricked. Never bricked a computer before, in my whole life, just one printer as it so happens. I followed your proceedure to the letter, and it reads the USB key, then reboots, and the beeps run forever, not stopping after 20 to 30 times as you suggested. When I disconnect power, and try to boot, the beeps continue as before. Any further ideas for me? I'm out of my home country, so support may be thin on the ground for me from Thailand just now, and I'm off to Saudi on Sunday, so it is going to make returning this machine even more difficult. All suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance for your help...
