    Hi guys, I just got this Alienware 13 inch 256GB SSD Nvidia 960M Model.
    Just wanted to ask with regards to the Power Button?
    Basically, it's yellow and blinking even though battery indicates that it's fully charged.
    Not that the laptop isn't functioning or some sort, it's functioning all fine.
    I can play my games, download my updates (updated Windows 10 Home to full), able to listen to music / watch movies, etc. It's just that it's annoying to have the power button blinking >_>. I mean, I thought the power button is suppose to blink ONLY when battery reaches low?

    Is this anything I should be worried about?
    Laptop itself is still under warranty.
    Thought I'd ask the experts here to see if they have any solution?

    Check your AlienFX settings

    Exactly, turn off the blink in AlienFX and you should be set.
