    Hi all,

    I cannot seem to find any help online for this Alienware startup issue.

    Since a recent update, I have not been able start my Alienware PC. First there is a message saying ‘Sorry, we encountered a problem. We will restart.’

    After the restart, I am given the option of pressing F1, F2, F12, etc, to tackle this – but all options ultimately lead to a screen showing the Alienware symbol with three options either side - ‘Main, Advanced, and OC’ to the left; ‘Security, Boot and Exit’ to the left. (Image shown)

    Is the computer faulty or is there some way to adjust the settings in one of the six option boxes to restore normal service? Any advice would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
