The Dell? Alienware M15x is a laptop, which can be used with different operating systems. The driver is a sort of file known as Info file that helps the modem to work, and also define commands for the modem. The driver does not have any concern with the connectivity problems. A firmware flash tells that how appropriately the modem will work. Modem drivers in the Dell? Alienware M15x are highly advanced. Although, the best way is to use the drivers which came from the manufacturer, but there are commonly used drivers available as well, which can be used as a last resort if you are unable to get the relevant drivers, but this is not sure that these commonly used drivers will always work.

Tips to install modem drivers in Dell ?Alienware M15x:

If the mouse is attached to the Com1, or has a separate mouse port, you can set your internal modem to Com4, IRQ=3, install it in an open bus slot, and you're finished. If your mouse is attached to the Com2, in this situation you can set your modem to Com3, IRQ4, and you're finished. Turn on your system, and then make the MSD run to check if the system is able to see the three ports. Suppose it is not happening, then power down it, take away the adapter, and verify the jumpers, and then try again. The "line" connection on your modem goes to the wall jack, and the "phone" connection is for plugging in a telephone handset.

Things to keep in mind while installing:

First of all one should have to go into the control panel and check that if the device is already in the list with a yellow exclamation mark or a cross with the red color, If yes, then you must have to delete it before going for any sort of installation. You must be aware about the Com Port, and the IRQ.  Note that some devices require having the device unplugged when installing the driver but most require the device to be connected before the driver is installed. Also try to take some kind of help from a technical person or from one of your friends if they know about it.
