ADOR Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I just got a new to me 17 R5 (i7, 1070, 16GB ram, 256 GB SSD, 1TB Hard Drive) off facebook marketplace that had some issue. Wifi wasn't working, no battery (because had a swolen battery that was removed) and trackpad suppose to not work sometimes. Well The wifi was unplugged antenna, everything else seems fine. Not worried about a battery and not sure if I will get one as I have other laptops (toughbooks) for casual browsing. But tonight I will try a few games to see how it runs. Any other known issues I need to know about this model? My last Alienware M11x R1, had a M9750 Before that.

ADOR Posted May 1, 2022 Author Share Posted May 1, 2022 The guy was wanting 200 and time i got there I guess he thought I wasn't coming and said he needed the money. So he said give him 150. He didn't seem like the tech type. Not sure if it was him or someone else that took the battery out and disconnected the wifi antenna's. He was working as a manager at a fast food place.
