              How to fix Yellow Light of Death on Alienware Steam Machine               

• I have a fix for an Alienware Steam Machine with Win10, Steam installed and a Yellow Light of Death (YDL) so you cannot boot. The reason for Yellow Light of Death is in the Steam OS. When you shut down your Steam Machine with Windows instead of Steam OS it will always come up again with no YDL. When you have YDL try mainboard battery out/replace
