    Hello! For Christmas my family purchased this Windows 7, M18x Alienware PC from Ebay and it was missing just about everything it is meant to come with. It has have a magnitude of errors from a black wallpaper, not being able to change personalisation and username change errors. I managed to open the spare admin account and resolve all of the issues mentioned but there is still another problem. The startup displays an error code on Port 1 and a system scan revealed that any port on the left side of the pc doesn't work. Any help is appreciated. A detailed list of the issue is down below. Thank you in advance!

    EDIT: After finding the drivers needed, I do believe this issue is resolved, please delete this thread. If the problem persists, I will be sure to make a thread.
