Hi there,
I have my Alienware X51 for 11 months... And it starts to have some troubles... It freezes while playing but really randomly, sometimes after 10 minutes, sometimes after an hour. While playing the fans are really noisy and the case is sometimes hot... Most of the times, when my games crash, the only way for me to get out of the crash is to restart my computer with the power button...
I've tried many things that I know but it didn't work :
- Re-installing Nvidia drivers
- Updating Windows 8
- Re-installing all my games
- Updating BIOS
- Updating Intel Chipset
- Re-installing system properly... Via AlienRespawn and also by doing a proper reinstallation...
My trouble is really really really similar to this one :

But I've read all this thread without any solution for my trouble.
My warranty is coming to its end next month... If it's a hardware trouble I don't want to wait 'till the end of it... I was really enjoying my X51... Until now... :-(
