Alienwares are good but expensive laptops. Check for example also some Asus and MSI gaming laptops before buying to compare between them and making a good decision according your needs. Best Regards

As it is an older low power laptop, which compares to an Atom, I would say it won't work. But if you already have the game, you could give it a try. I don't recommend getting the game to play on that laptop.

I hope no, but if you tried the steps zer0c007 said, it could be a damage in the video chip (or issues with the solder in the chip). I have also a sony vaio (E series, 15 inch, AMD Athlon II x2, DDR3, ATI HD4250) which has something similar. I tried disassembling and assembling again but no...

Seems to be something related compatibility between Bios and kernel. Which version are you trying to install? I would recommend downloading always the LTS versions (unless you have a recently bought computer with latest components). Give a try with ubuntu 16.04 LTS. Best regards

All Macbook PRO 13 non-retina are user upgradeable (RAM and Storage). The retina versions came everything soldered down. Best regards

Access to http://support.toshiba.com/ and enter your laptop model, and download the drivers you need. I don't think you'll find the recovery discs there, only drivers. In order to install windows, download an iso (the same version you have the licence, it should be pasted in bottom side of the...

You should download the bios updater from acer website. It shouldn't be encrypted. Best regards

you're welcome ;)

I don't have values to compare, but as far as I know Kaby Lake has new decoders in order to improve 4k playback.
