Bootcamp - Catalyst Control Center - help me!

Hello, I've tried to install catalyst control center for windows 7 bootcamp, I can't seem to find the download for the actual program, I only find the drivers for it, I did find the program once, and installed it, but then I only had 2 different tabs in there, and there should be atleast 7+ with alot of options. I had close to none, in my install of the program, so I uninstalled the whole thing and now I can't seem to find it again.
I've installed the latest driver for the program now, but I cannot find the program...
And ofcourse I want to find out why I only had 2 tabs in there, when I should have had 7+
Please help me
- Anton

Is it these old drivers?

ATI Radeon HD 4870 - Bootcamp & Catalyst Control Center

Hey all,
I installed Bootcamp (Vista 64-bit) 5 min ago and noticed that Catalyst Control Center was not there. When installing Bootcamp on my MacBook Pro I got the Nvidia panel, why is not the CCC available on the Mac Pro?

I have posted a message "White screen of death and computer halts with ATI 4870 in Boot Camp"
I bought the 4870 and ANYTHING I do causes the system to halt and go to a white screen before even attempts to go into windows.
I have called Mac AND gone to a shop. I took the NVIDIA out of my MAc Pro and put in the 4870 and works GREAT in Mac but as soon as hold down the Option key to get the option to select Mac or Windows it halts system when push Windows before even attempts to load Windows.
I went so far as to take ALL hard disks out of system but a new one and put a Vists dvd in drive and try to install it.... Also tried Windows 7 and xp. NONE work... as soon as click the dvd the system halts. So this supposed upgrade just doesn't work.
I haven't found anyone with the same problem which is odd...
Any advice I would love it. Otherwise I need to return it.
The MAc shop said it wasn't their problem. Mac just guarantees works on MAc OS and maybe someday will support bootcamp. Really bad answer.

, Hello and thanks for posting on the HP support forums. If you are downloading this from the AMD site it may not work. The video chipset is built by AMD Radeon however it is propriatary. Unless you download the software for the system from the notebooks support site it may not work. As well you have to check to see if that notebook was released or was given windows 7 as an os. Here is the link to the support page. HP Pavilion dv7-6135dx Entertainment Notebook PC - Software and Drivers If your system came with it pre- loaded then you can do a system recovery to get it back. You will have to back up all your data before this. HP PCs - Performing an HP system recovery (Windows 7) Please let me know how things go. Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

ATI Catalyst Control Center is not loading with the latest drivers. Help!!!

I have installed latest ATI drivers from Lenovo 8.712. After that ATI Catalyst Control Center is not loading. The icon is present, when I click display properties. But when I click it, nothing happens. How can I downgrade to the previous version?
And another question: I have a docking station and 2 monitors. One of the monitors with DVI connection is working fine. Is there any way to disable laptop screen and enable second monitor through analog D-SUB.
Thank you in advance.

Let me add. Already tried everything: battery is switched to High Performance, Windows XP service pack 3, T500

Windows 8.1-AMD Catalyst Control Center

Hello!
First of all I would like to start of by saying thank you Hp for an amazing product, I bought my Hp Envy m6 laptop in May and I have loved it ever since. I bought it as a gaming machine, and it did not disappoint me...until I decided to update to Windows 8.1.
I downloaded it from the app store last week to see what new features they added (was rather disappointed with how long it took especially for the lack of great features they added, however that is not your fault), after a day when I bought a new game from Steam (Arma Two) and I went to the Catalyst control center to set the performace to high I realized it had stopped working the message I got was:
"Catalyst Control Center cannot be started.
There are currently no settings that can be configured using Catalyst Control Center"
This means a lot go my games are running rather bad at the moment as they are using a mixture of my intergrated Intel 4000 "graphics card" and my AMD Radaen HD 2GB Graphics card. Instead of just my AMD graphics card (the good one).
I tried looking for solutions to this problem e.g. A new download for Catalyst Control Center or an easy way to downgrade to windows 8 from windows 8.1 however I have been unsuccessful. The only method that seems possibly is to downgrade however that would involve uninstalling all my programs (Over 50 games from steam) and all my other programs.
So the reason for this message is that I am looking for a solution to this problem, either an easy way to downgrade to windows 8 OR a way to get my Catalyst Control Center to work again so I can change what graphics card is used when.
Thank you
-Conor
P.s. I love Hp's products and I have told all my friends to get them. This is window 8's fault not yours.

Possible solution:
Hi Guys,
I just contacted HP support regarding this problem. They asked me to install the following file:
ccc2_install.exe
It was already present in my system in the following path:
"C:\Program Files\AMD\CCC2\Install"
This solved my problem. CCC is working fine now
Also, while installing, your desktop might go black and only active windows will seem to work. But, thats fine, just restart your system.
Hope this helps
Cheers...
Thanks and regards,

Boot Camp - Windows 7 (64-bit) - Catalyst Control Center

Hi,
This topic is all about running Catalyst Control Center on your Mac in Boot Camp.
Setup:
Mac Pro 2.66 (early 2009)
ATI Radeon HD 5870
Boot Camp 3.2
Windows 7 (64-bit) SP1
Case:
First I uninstalled all graphic drivers that came with Mac OS disc. After that I booted up in safe mode and removed all left-overs with Drive Sweeper. After verifying that everything was gone I booted up in standard mode and installed latest version of Catalyst Software Suite (v.11.2).
Notice! To get through with the installation of CSS I had to uncheck features like drag and drop decoding. If I did not uncheck those features the installation process would fail...no clue why. After a "successful" installation it still does not work. When I right-click the CCC shortcut or try to start the application from its folder nothing happens.
*Solution (if any):*
Any ideas?
<Edited by Host>

I had trouble accessing catalyst control center (for my AMD Radeon HD 6700M Series display adapter) on my Windows partition (64-bit). I tired installing the drivers from the mac os x cd and from AMD's web site. While I could successfully install the driver, I couldn't get the control center up and running. The interesting solution to this problem was downloading the AMD Catalyst™ 12.2 Preview Driver. After installation, i was able to access the catalyst control center and solve a problem that I was having (undersize on my monitor when using HDMI). I hope that this helps solve the problem to others who are experiencing it (I thought I'd post as this page came up in my solution searching).

7850 CrossFireX - Catalyst Control Center - Disable CrossFireX

Hello, I have MSI 7850 CrossFireX. I was playing Skyrim and notice micro-stutter so I went into Catalyst Control Center and disabled CrossFireX.
The problem is that Skyrim will not load. It always crashes when I start the game. I re-enabled CrossFireX and it will load fine.
I was wondering whether this is a known issue. Maybe I have to physically remove the connector to get it to work (I haven't tried that. I just wanted to see how it would do with one card). I don't know if this is a problem with Catalyst Control Center, the driver, Skyrim, Steam or what.
Any information would be helpful. Thanks.
Edit for more information:

msi r7850 twin frozr (crossfirex)
(catalyst verison 12.3)

The reason i'm asking this question is basically I want to know if disabling crossfirex in Catalyst is suppose to work? I'm sure someone has done it before.

Amdcccle (Catalyst Control Center) not saving multiple monitor setting

I followed the wiki to the letter, but I cannot get any x window session to save the changes I make in amdcccle. All I am trying to do is get multiple monitors configured, and it works great with the catalyst control center but it never saves these settings.
I have done the following:
gksu amdcccle
gksudo amdcccle
also:
sudo aticonfig -f --initial=dual-head --screen-layout=right
and many other interations of aticonfig. The -dtop option complains that it doesnt work with RandR enabled.
I got this working a few weeks ago but can't remember what I did. If amdcccle could actually save the current configuration to file that would solve the issue but it simply will not.

Hello insco6750,
When you updated the drivers did you install over top of existing software or uninstall beforehand?
First we should try ripping everything ATI off of the system, including software, drivers and CCC. You should be able to uninstall everything through Add/remove programs.
After you remove everything reboot and let windows reinstall it's own drivers and software. You don't need CCC to do dual monitors so we can do testing without it.
Once you let windows install see if your HDMI output no longer works when you switch to the TV.
Post back your results after completing this.

Hi,
Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall your original AMD Graphics Driver - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.

Screen Rotation from Catalyst Control Center won't stick

Greetings,
I recently upgrade all my software on my laptop (T23, model 2668-J3U, docked in a docking station), both installing XP SP3, and installing all the upgrades through the Thinkpad System Update tool. I have 2 external flat screen displays connected (one on digital one analog) and I use the rotation feature. However, since upgrading, I've tried using the Catalyst Control Center to rotate my screens but cannot get it to "stick". The option is there to rotate and i've tried mutliple combinations, but no matter what I do the screen flickers (like it's going to rotate), but then flickers back to the landscape settings.
I've checked forums on this site as well as googled on the internet but haven't been able to find anything on the subject.
Is there some other trick to get the rotation feature to stick? You help is much appreciated as I rely on rotated screens for many reasons.
Many Thanks,
Fred

Hi there!
I work in Tech support in the UK for a hospital and i have recently come across this issue on our HP5850's.
They are using the HP drivers built on catalyst 8.4, and also had SP3 installed and the screens would NOT rotate.
After much faffing around and eventually coming across this site we tried uninstalling SP3 and now the screen rotates fine.
So, whilst i do not wish to argue with Lancelspencer (last poster), removing SP3 DOES fix the issue.
Hope this helps, good luck.

I Can't Switch between 'power-saving GPU' and 'High-Performance GPU' in Catalyst Control Center

Hi,
Whatever if my computer was only on the battery or was only plugged in to the main power supply. In Catalyst Control Center, I noticed that 'High-Performance GPU' was always selected', although the 'automatically select power-saving GPU when on battery' was enabled. Also, When I tried to switch into the 'power-saving GPU', there was no response at all. However, when my laptop was only on the battery, I noticed the the try of switching into 'Power-Saving GPU' results in shutting down my computer suddenly.
Thus, I had to open the Device Manager, then I disabled 'Radeon HD'. After that, 'power-Saving GPU' was selected(Screen shot below), regardless of whether my laptop was on only the battery or was only plugged in to the main power supply. To switch it into 'High-performance GPU' again, I only must enable 'Radeon HD' in the Device Manager since clicking on 'High-performance GPU' in the Catalyst Control Center didn't respond.
As conclusion, 'High-performance GPU is always selected, regardless of whether my computer was only the Battery, or was only plugged in to the main power supply. To let 'power-saving GPU' is selected, then 'Radeon HD' must be disabled in the Device Manager.

Envy h8-1409 Desktop-Problem Installing Catalyst Control Center on Wiindows 7 for Radeon HD 7570

Hi,
I just purchased an HP Envy h8-1409 desktop. It came with Windows 8 but I downgraded to Windows 7 due to my unfamiliarity with the new Windows 8.
Officially, HP only provides Windows 8 drivers for this particular model I bought. However, I was able to find another HP desktop model (h8-1360t) that has almost the same hardware that has Windows 7 drivers. I downloaded all the Windows 7 drivers and was able to install properly for everything except for the Graphics Card (Radeon HD 7570). There was an error message during the start of the installation complaining that the driver was unable to find supported hardware on my machine. I ended up using "Windows Update" to get the driver for the Radeon HD 7570.
Having installed the Radeon HD 7570 driver only allows Windows to recognize my graphics card but I was unable to adjust any advanced settings. So I went to AMD's website to get the latest Catalyst Control Center package. During the installation, no error was found and everything seemed alright. However after the installation is complete, I was unable to see Catalyst Control Center anywhere on my computer (e.g. Start menu, right-click menu, etc). Also, when I checked the "ATI Technologies" folder, it was empty!
I also tried using AMD's auto detect agent but my graphics card was not even recognized.
I am running out of ideas on how I can get Catalyst Control Center installed. Please help!

Hello,
Here is an article about downgrading a Windows 8 computer. I hope it helps.
Good luck!

T400, cannot start Catalyst Control Center - error "active GPU not supported"

on a t400 machine running vista business 64 bit.
last week all was hunky dory. this week, when i try to open my ati catalyst control center (CCC), i receive the following error:
"ATI catalyst control center cannot be started because the currently active gpu is not supported"
i've read some posts about this problem stemming from not using the ATI graphics card and rather being on the integrated graphics card. the posts indicated i could reenable CCC simply by clicking on the battery icon in the system tray and selecting "high performance mode" to force the machine to use the discrete graphics card. after i do this, and then try to start CCC, i receive the same error as above. also, at this point after the switch to high peformance mode, my device manager lists "mobile intel(r) 4 series express chipset family" as my display adapter still. if i left or right click on the battery icon in the tray, i do not see any options for switching cards explicitly.
the video driver for the mobile intel 4 adapter is listed as being from ATI at version 8.520.4.4000.
i am not sure of my driver version for the ATI card. nor do i know where to look for it.
to my knowledge, nothing aside from a number of "critical" windows updates have changed on my system between the time CCC was working last week and now.
any suggestions as to how to fix this? and what caused it to stop working?
thanks in advance for any help.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

i finally figured it out. and no new drivers or reinstalls were necessary. in the end, all i needed to do was turn on the lenovo version of the power manager (which appears in my taskbar as a horizontal green battery with the number of minutes of use remaining). from there i can left click and get to the menu that has the switchable graphics option where i can chose energy saving or high performance. if from there i select high performance, i can then open CCC.
the important thing to note from this is in order to get to this menu you have to be using LENOVO's thinkVantage power management program (which sticks the green battery icon on your task bar), NOT windows built in power manager, which appears as a vertical grey/blue/? battery in the system tray (at least on mine). once you have that on, you can explicitly switch the graphics cards.
the odd thing is, i'd been accessing CCC without explicitly switching cards with no problem up to last week. so somehow the default setting must of gone from high performance to energy saving, thus putting me on the integrated graphics card unless i switched it manually. weird.
slip, thanks for you help. i appreciate it. and that is an interesting note about freeing up more memory by disabling the switchable graphics. i will probably give this a shot and see how i like. more available memory never hurts!
thanks again to everybody that helped out.
