If I Was A QUITTER, This One Would've BROKEN Me!

This Dell Alienware m16 R1 came in because it was giving a power rail failure. What should have been routine became hours of work to bring this laptop back to life.

🙎‍♂️About me
I (Nathan) have been working on and repairing Dell laptops for more than 25 years, and in 2002, I started Parts-People.com, which is a company that specializes exclusively in Dell and Alienware laptops. We buy out and stock all of Dell's laptop inventory, which Dell no longer stocks. We now have more than 500K Dell genuine OEM parts in our warehouse and have become the number one place for Dell laptop owners. You can purchase parts to repair your own laptop or send it in and have one of our Dell experts or me service your machine.
