I sit on my alienware m18x r1 now with my 8970m working flawlessly! I took it from my clevo laptop. Benchmark on alienware m18x r1 with amd 8970m from clevo p170em and prema vbios mod. The benchmark is Unigine Valley on 1080p and Ultra settings Edited February 4, 2017 by Henrik9979 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkuin Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Dear forum-members, I have a problem and I desperately need your help. After making some changes in unlocked BIOS my computer (M18X R1) refused to boot. Now i have black screen from the start. "Alienware" sign glows, fans turns on and nothing else happens. The main question is - How can I reset BIOS if "blind flash" didn't work (tried multiple times - fans start run at full speed, but no beeps after that). Removing CPU won't work either. P.S. Please, forgive me for my bad, in terms of English grammar, post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(it is flat and round and connected with a cable to the motherboard) Press the power button for 30 seconds to drain remain power from the motherboard. Leave the big battery out and put the bios battery in and connect the power cable. Turn on the computer, it will give you 5 beeps. Disconnect the power cable again, forcing the computer to shut down. Press and hold the FN key on your keyboard while connecting the power cable. The computer should start up for 5 sec and then reboot to Windows. Hope it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, no reaction on FN key and power cable. If i put out RAM, there gonna be 5 beeps. But when i reconnect everything and push power button - only black sreen and continious "puff", not beeps, from loudspeakers.

invictadeus Posted September 3, 2016 Share Posted September 3, 2016 Any chance i can get the a05 unlocked for the m18x r1 reuploaded or a link to download. My 2nd gpu went out and cant seem to swap over to the integrated video card with only one 680m installed. Hoping the unlocked will allow me too. Thanks in advanced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MavUK666 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Ever since I bought my M18x I've never been able to see the integrated gfx card, is there anything in the unlocked BIOS that would help me sort it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the first time I've done this, but I think it will work In the worst case there's still the well-known recovery method. If anyone is going to test it, let me know and report back! EDIT: Tested and confirmed to work, so go ahead and flash Thanks @mw86 for testing!! M18x - A05 unlocked.zip @svl7 , I was wondering if the specs for the BIOS were available. I am new to the BIOS modding community and don't want to make any mistakes with hardware upgrades and such. The two things right off the top that I was wondering about was: what, if any, changes are there to the speed capabilities of the RAM? I believe the current cap on my rig is 1600, but if 1866 is available with this mod then HELLS YEAH! Sorry got excited. Secondly, I was wondering if this BIOS will allow for me to swap from the AMD 6990M CrossfireX to GTX 860M SLI? If so, do you know of someone who has done it that I could speak with to make sure I do everything right? Any input would be greatly appreciated. As a noob to this I just don't want to brick my rig.

Henrik9979 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 On 3/12/2016 at 2:36 AM, cody.castor said: Why would you want the gtx 860M? You would be much happier upgrading to gtx 780m sli. Not many have a gtx 860m sli setup on their alienware, maybe because it has allot of compatibility issues. Anyway, upgrading to any nvidia card is a bit expensive. You need to buy two new nvidia 100w heatsinks and a SLI cable. If you want a cheaper solution you should upgrade to AMD 8970m crossfire. The crossfire cable and the AMD heatsinks from your 6990M will fit nicely. I have a alienware m18x r1 with a AMD 8970m (no crossfire though) running on the stock bios and have been overclocked it to perform like a gtx 780m. Any further questions let me know. If I don't answer so fast, then send me message more. Sometimes I don't see if I got a notification. @svl7 , I was wondering if the specs for the BIOS were available.

Ludo Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Hi, has anything changed regarding sata / ahci modes in the modded bios ? My Samsung 840PRO SSD is not recognized by the stock bios A05 thanks Ludo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cody.castor Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Ludo, I am not sure why your having this issue with your SSD. I just installed the Samsung 850 Evo with no issues. I am pretty sure that they run on the same controller, and as far as the interface that should not be a problem as they are all backwards compatible. I will do some looking on your drive and see if anything pops out that could cause the issue. If you have already resolved it please let me know the resolution. Thanks!

Then I can find the bios for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
