I just bought a brand new Alienware Aurora ALX and it freezes randomly. It just hard locks, no blue screen, no error messages and nothing in the event viewer. Also crashes with the audio frozen and keyboard lights turn off as well.... Not sure how im supposed to fix this with no error messages. Anyway, it mostly crashes in IE and After Effects CS4. I did notice it crashes when I use specific plug-ings, like Form. It could be that those plugins are not compatible with win 7. Not sure why IE crashes...maybe Network issues....

Im trying to stay away from Vista. I like Win 7 much better. I just wish it could determine incompatability before it installed software that makes it instable.

I did do a compatabilty test before I installed CS4. Everything worked fine in Vista. Alienware support told me to format and install Vista again. I dont want to do that. I just want to know if there is an app I can install in win 7 that will tell me why its crashing.... I dont even get a blue sceen error. Anyone else having these issues with the Alienware Aurora ALX?
