    Ok ignore the other post about monitor, i have figured out soon as i connect my type c usb hub to my new 51m it will not restart/post to Alienware logo just hangs at the blank screen. If i take it the hub off, machine functions as normal.

    -Have all update i know of installed.
    -Adapter works fine in other machine right beside it, machine restarts fine with hub plugged it and 3 peripherals attached.
    -When i plug type c hub in and anything to it it, the peripheral works fine.

    A full shutdown works fine with usb hub, but machine will just not reset with anything i have connected to thunderbolt
