NOTE: Download Dell Drivers and Utilities from My DELL Downloads (downloadstore.dell.com/media) and create your own backup media.

If you experience a problem with your Alienware laptop, run the Alienware Diagnostics before you contact Alienware for technical assistance. It is recommended that you print these procedures before you begin.

NOTE: Back up all data before initiating a system recovery.

Review your laptop’s configuration information, and ensure that the device that you want to test displays in the system setup program and is active. Start the Alienware Diagnostics from the backup disc.
