Alienware x15 R1 Component-Level Repair

Many repairers swap a whole board when one chip or capacitor has failed. We repair Alienware x15 R1 boards at component level using microsoldering and rework equipment.

Signs your Alienware x15 R1 needs this repair

  • Dead laptop after a power cut or surge
  • Won't charge with a working charger
  • Short circuits after liquid damage
  • Blank or scrambled picture on an undamaged screen
  • Ports that have stopped working
  • Boards other shops said were beyond repair

How we fix your Alienware x15 R1

Using schematics, a microscope and test equipment, we trace the fault to the failed part, whether that's a MOSFET, capacitor, fuse, power controller or connector.

We replace it with a matching part, test the board under load and check everything works before you collect your Alienware x15 R1.

How long it takes

How long a component repair takes depends on the parts needed. We confirm the timescale with your quote before starting.

Good to know: If your laptop died after a spill, don't keep trying to switch it on. Power running through a wet board causes more damage.

Common questions

Why not just replace the motherboard?

Replacement boards for many models are expensive or no longer made. Component repair keeps your original board working at a lower cost.

Can every board be repaired?

Most boards can be repaired. If yours is too badly damaged, we'll tell you and quote for a replacement board instead.
