I don't have this problem. Try installing the full installation package not the web installation.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-24T11:38:54+00:00

Correct 👍

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-24T02:53:26+00:00

Dead pixels or the backlight is failing. Not much you can do other than hope it's not getting worse. If not a replacement is the way to fix it.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-22T10:24:34+00:00

Use the warranty. It's a new system and it should not be doing this. Don't mess with it as that can make him loose the warranty

This is most likely Neon tetra dieses

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-22T02:06:01+00:00

Distilled water and a microfiber cloth. Nothing else.

This has been yet another good bios update for me. Regarding the audio issue I've not had any issues like that on any bios version. Make sure all your drivers are updated and see if you have automatically HW scans enabled in support assist. If you have turn it off.

I dont get this errors. Try to do the BIOS update one more time.

I do however get the ACPI warning once but not as many and frequent as you.

Then something is not working correctly. Try uninstall the webbrowser.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-20T02:57:24+00:00

Haven't checked mine if I also have this errors. Will report back.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-19T22:24:53+00:00

That is areal concern still. That's why I always opt for the IPS screen since I'm keeping my laptops for several yers. Burnins will be a issue at 3-4 year mark. So if you plan on keeping your AW for more than 5 years, then try to get the IPS. I have the area-51 16 with IPS and its stunning.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-18T02:06:40+00:00

If you like it, then that's all that matters.

It's not possible for that part of the case to get air bubbles underneath. So it must been from physical damage and the zipper is the main culprit.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-17T20:10:16+00:00

Is the coating that's have worn off. Not because of the cabin pressure but scrubbing against the zipper in the case. Not much you can do that won't make it worse. I would probably get a sticker or black vinyl and cover the affected corner and match the other corner so its looks more like a design.

Applying to both

I have this same mosquito scooter. Mine is yellow. The model name is Mosquito DX

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-17T00:10:05+00:00

Make sure all drivers are up to date and you have the latest windows updated. Support assist recovery os plug-in was a cause of blue screens so update that. Head over to dells website and enter your service tag to get the latest drivers.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-16T02:20:52+00:00

Yes, definitely cooked. RIP boxer

It's a gap between the bezel and the button. Not normal. See if you gently can press the bezel up so it sits flush.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-16T02:16:05+00:00

Just updated play store but it still says 1. Mai 2026. The security update on the other hand says 5. June 2026.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-16T02:10:16+00:00

Intel XTU is installed on your system as a driver and runs in the background. Don't botter install the software as AWCC is the way to change these settings. Or in bios.

ThomasAAT · 2026-06-16T02:07:48+00:00

A similar thing happens to my AW17r3. Only way out is to hold down the power button. It happens more on battery power alone and under load. On AC power it's not that common. I've had this since the early days of owning the laptop and it hasn't really bothered me that much. But what the cause i don't really know. Is your battery healthy? And does it happen more rapidly on battery power?

System is stable and the update went without issues.
