forger

Not sure what happened to the original poster, but I am having the same issue with my alienware m51 5550. The system try to start and other times not at all (the fan will may or may not come on). If the screen comes up at all it usually takes about a half hour. On that note the screen has not shown a picture for quite a while now. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am guessing it is either the video card or the screen.



Thanks
