You can make a thread with a mod or idea you have.

It could be custom painting your Alienware or experimenting with cooling. You can see if some of my threads could give inspiration.

I just subbed for Tier 1  got the files not sure about the bootable_disk.zip now

This is the download link. If you can not use it, it is because you have not made enough quality posts yet. (Read the rules)

 

A think you can try is pressing FN+F7

The exact function is unclear, but it should switch between IGFX, PEG and SG. You need to restart each time.

 

 Also you need to have installed Alienware OSD (on-screen-display) and Alienware command center for it to work.

Ahh got you thank you so much! what about the FPT tools ? they show me 404 as well.

I tried FN+F7 it does not switch my GPU still, and when i head into my BIOS , ther is no discrete graphic card detected / shown

1. What link is not working?

2. What graphics card are you using?

3. Have it been working before?

4. If you are going change the bios, change it to an unlocked bios and set the primary display to PEG and see if it works.

 

Hello thanks so much for the prompt response!

1.) the link to download A05 BIOS on the first page 

2.) I think i am using 580, nvidia 

3.) Yes it was working before, not sure when it died when i upgraded my windows to 10 or BIOS

4.) Sorry I have not tried changing as I cannot download the A05 unlocked BIOS

Hi I am having issues with my Alienware M17x R4, it is not detecting my discrete graphic card. Currently on A14 BIOS

Will the rolling back of Bios to A05 aid with it? And the link in the first page isnt working :(
