Performance issues with my M17x R3

Hello everyone

I am having some huge troubles with my Laptop (About 5 months old) lately, which I could not resolve by myself, which is why I am looking for help in the forums. Since this friday night, I experienced some extreme Frameskips / Screen Freeze (sometimes longer than 5 seconds) at random spots. Important is that I can still move the cursor, but the application itself freezes. After having gone through some games, I also noticed the lag when I opened a youtube video, to the extent that I would get only one frame every 3 or 4 seconds, and no matter what I would try, it wouldn't go away.

I also had sound problems beside the lag on League of Legends, generally the announcer or my champion starting to loop a phrase (Sound driver should be OK, i tried several versions, both showed the same issue), which only occurs in this one game - nowhere else.

So I decided to delete all my drivers and install them back on my system - with no success.

Then I decided to do a factory reset via AlienRespawn - no success.

Then I formatted my hard drive completely and booted off the Windows CD - still having problems.

I checked my hardware temperatures, and during gameplay (minecraft in this case), my graphics card would go up into mid-70 range, my processor cores would go up to 85 degrees celsius.

Through those steps (it is the third time I've had software issues with this laptop, which is really starting to get annoying, as I blow all weekend backing up data, reinstalling windows, and downloading all my stuff back) I am almost certain that it is a hardware issue.

- Note: I frapsed a 20 second clip of myself playing minecraft with the lag, in case someone wants to see it, I can upload it to youtube and provide the link -

Here is my DxDiag (My Graphics card does not show up, but it's the GeForce GT 560 M):

I am having similar issues.  I got my m17R3 in February.  it was running fine for a couple of weeks and then all of the sudden it just started freezing up completely a few minutes after I logged on.  I tried to trouble shoot it.  restored it using Alien Restore, reinstalled Windows.  then I was on the phone with tech suppport for about an hour and a half , while they uninstalled and reinstalled some drivers.  then it did the same thing while I was on the phone with tech support.  the tech guy had me send in my PC for diagnosis and repair.  When I got it back I'm pretty sure that Dell didn tabsolutely nothing to my PC. None of the settign shad changed and I started experiencing the very same issue right off the bat.  another call to tech support had me completley uninstall and reinstall windows and then the tech guy spent like 4 hours reinstalling all the drivers and software on my pc.  A few days later I am experiencing the very same issue.  At this point its too late for me to refund my purchase, but with the money that I spent of this PC, I would expect it to run much smoother than this.  This is my fourth laptop from Alienware.

Are either of you using Nvidia Drivers 29x.xx or 30x.xx if so roll back to at least 285.62 see if that fixes your issues. There has been a lot of trouble with those two sets of drivers over at the nvidia forums plenty of freeze and pink screen reports on 460 and 560 family of cards.

Never mind, after restarting the computer I get the same issue again...

What could it be?

IT WORKED! I installed the driver version 285.62, and the lag is pretty much gone completely!

I will give it 1 or 2 days to see how it will work on the long run, and will report back if my system is stable now.

I just replaced the thermal paste on both CPU and GPU, and although it did reduce the temps a little bit, the issue is still remaining. What should I do?

I talked to the Alienware support center, and my hard drive has gone bad - i'm getting a replacement.
