Hey [NAME] & everybody, I've replaced the battery with a new OEM one and it fixed the issue. Now the system works fine. No error blinks whatsoever. As always thanks for your support. Regards, Ruki_97
Hello, I updated the new BIOS chipset drivers this morning and now my Alienware m15 R1 is throwing a diagnostic code at me. Quick 8 blinks in red. And my battery is apparently not working because when I remove the AC adapter the computer dies, even if it states that the battery is at 68% capacity. The computer was working fine and I suspect it has something to do with the BIOS update. The warranty expired October 2021. Any help is much appreciated. Nim_Ruki
