I have an Inspiron 7520 and uninstalled and reinstalled the new version of Dell Backup and Recovery Manager -- upgraded to premium to make sure that I would have full ability to use the program. Note: the old version didn't work at all -- hung up on backup, etc. I have rebooted.

AlienFX launches fine and I can see the green icon in the notification area, but trying a quick change for the led panels or going trough the Command Center has no effect. After a while a balloon pops up from the notification area saying that AlienFX could not communicate with the hardware.

I want to add an extra drive to my 760 which only has two sata ports. I am using these for main hard drive and DVD rewriter. I need to add an extra peripheral card to drive the new hard drive. I have tried a couple of pci cards with no success.

I have a Dell v515w that was working fine with my windows 7 computer. Unfortunately, that computer is not with me anymore. My new laptop is Windows 8 and I cannot get the printer to work with it. I've read all of the other posts and tried everything without luck.

Last time I fixed the problem by rolling back an NVIDIA driver. However, I am still using the rolled back NVIDIA driver (the good one) and the problem has reoccurred. I tried recovering Windows 7 to a restore point, but the oldest restore point I had, dated March 28th, did not fix the problem.

2) I am asking question 1 because this machine had a virus... which upon rebooting to complete removal the machine would show the windows moths flying around and coming together, than a fast flash of a blue screen with white letters, then it would begin to boot again... in an endless loop.

After having to do a reset to Windows 8, I reinstalled all available drivers on the support page for my Alienware M17 R4. However, I still have one "unknown device". The action center on Windows 8 is giving me this message:

There can be various reasons causing this issue, including the router settings as well. Dell Inspiron 14R 5420 comes with the following wireless card configuration:
