    Is there an online manual or some kind of tutorial for the teardown of the Area 51 M17x R1?

    I just picked up a dead system that I am looking to take apart and salvage parts to install in my Barebones Area 51-M M17x R1. I have found the "m17" and the Dell models but not the one I am looking for.

    Is there a thread you can link to this post or a video or something you can put into the thread so I can get this thing torn down, stripped clean then up and running hopefully by New Years. All help is appreciated.

    Thank-You in Advance
