Alienware M11x: Can I swap the r1 motherboard for the r3 motherboard?

Fri, 15 Jun 2018 11:53:19 -0700

So I got this laptop for about $50 and I was looking at the newer models so I went to look at the newest motherboard possible would be and it’s $35 and it appears to be the exact same layout just different gpu and cpu so I was wondering if I could swap out my motherboard with a r3 variant??? (With clean win7 install of course)

Also please don’t tell me that I’m wasting money into an old laptop I know this and for $35 + shipping it’s freaking worth it if it does work

Alienware M11xR2: How to screw loose screen properly

Fri, 05 Aug 2011 01:53:57 -0700

I have bought the R2 alienware m11x a few months back, and I noticed that overtime the screen hinge got loose from the body. I know from my earlier experience with laptops that there should be four screws holding the screen in place, and they would eventually get loose from all the opening and closing. on my old dell, these were easily accessible, but with this, I can't seem to find them. I did open the back lid, and found all the main components, but not these screws.

I don't want to just go looking for them and remove (or possibly damage) components.

If anyone could help me, that'd be great.

thanks!
