How to stop Dragon Gaming Center's auto-start?

Dragon Gaming Center is a good monitor, but i only want to start it before gaming. i cant find anything about Dragon Gaming Center in msconfig.exe and services.msc, but it already can auto-start. How to stop it?

Nevermind, found it and fixed it.
After some googling around further   I found this page which said it was started by a scheduled task. ( second result was shouldiremoveit site, but I can't post external links here )
So I went to taskscheduler and found it through the active task list at the bottom. (make sure you run it as administrator if you want to change it)
It is called "MSI_Dragon Gaming Center" and engages at logon. So I thought, "Well, why not simply disable it". Well, as it happens, the taskscheduler gets a fit and looses it's marbles (seriously! scheduled task lists seem to get flushed) when you try to disable it (right click on it for context menu) because somehow it was assigned by MSI to be done by an incorrect user, named "User" or "Users". I can't remember exactly anymore. The former does not exist by default so some MSI dev might have forgotten to replace  a systemvariable reference. The latter is a user-group, not a user! It may have caused the fault because I have a dutch language pack, and that group is named differently on my system. It's aka "Built-In\Users" in english. Anyway, correcting this was the fix that allows it to be disabled/edited.
So, I opened the properties of the task (again right click for context menu) and changed the executing user to my personal useraccount. When that succeeded I was able to disable the task succesfully, and it didn't start at  login anymore.

  • GT70 2QD - Dragon Gaming Center not working

    Hello,
    Just recently purchased this laptop and did a windows update.  Now the Dragon Gaming center is no longer working.
    Simple pop up message states Dragon Gaming Center has stopped working.  - A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.  Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    I tried to update the program by visiting the MSI website and downloading the utility program, but that was unsuccessful.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    HI CHC, sorry for the lacking info.
    MSI GT70 2QD (best buy has it as 2293)
    Win 8.1
    This only began after an update I did prior to 12/14/14.
    Before the update, it was working fine.
    Thanks
    That's great! You know the exact date. You could try to remove all the hotfixes installed after that day. Do it one by one until you find out which hotfix causes this problem...
    Or you can try to restore system back to the restore point prior to 12/14/14. That is faster.....But we will not know the suspect...

    I went to go update it, but when i run it now i get a message of " The exception unknown software exception (0xe0434352) occurred in the application at location 0x951e606c.
    Any help is appreciated.

    How about this solution?

    My suggestion is to make sure you have completely remove old Dragon Gaming center from Windows control panel before you install new version.  And better to get Dragon Gaming center from the same model name web page.

  • Dragon gaming center issue

    Hi, i'm expecting some problems with Dragon gaming center. I have an gs70 2pe stealth pro (spanish version) and since yesterday Dragon gaming center is not showing any comsumption and temperatures data as you can see in the picture. Would apreciate some help over here, thanks!

    Sure, I am certain it most likely worked at one point while it was being configured based on the dates of the files. When I realized this I immed realized it was not something I had done after it was shipped. No biggie.

  • Dragon Gaming Center – an introduction

    Dragon Gaming Center is a nifty tool to set a bunch of settings that are available on the G series MSI Notebooks. The idea with this article is to break down the settings and explain them.
    The first thing that meets you when you launch the Dragon Gaming Center is the System Monitor screen:
    It does pretty much what the name says – it gives you system parameters in real-time, such CPU load, RAM use, battery status, etc. You can also switch SHIFT profiles and monitor your temperatures and network usage.
    Screen 2 is the Utility screen – from here, you can launch applications, with the ones you see in the screenshot are preset. In addition to these, you can add your own applications.
    Instant Play comes with four tabs – the first one is ”Instant Play”. Here you can assign the P1 key shortcut to launch a specific application or game.
    Tab 2 is Display & Audio, where you can adjust speaker volume and microphone levels, as well as display brightness and gamma.
    Tab 3 is Mouse – you can set pointer speed, double-click speed and scrolling properties.
    The last Instant Play tab is Resource Release where you can choose which applications will be automatically closed when you launch your preset game with the P1 key combo.
    Lastly, Device Setting comes with the possibility to turn on/off the Windows key on the keyboard, and enabling/disabling the high performance profile. Finally, you can once more choose SHIFT modes.

    Only the newer version of Dragon Gaming Center has the "Device Setting" tab. It's a new feature with the 9xx series graphics models' Dragon Gaming Center.
    The "Hybrid Power" tab shows on certain models which support hybrid power on previous Dragon Gaming Center.

  • Dragon Gaming Center/Audio Device No Sound

    Hi there I'm sorry I'm new to the forum and I'm not certain if this is the right location for this post.
    I have an MSI GS70 2QE running Windows 8.1
    1)I was installing drivers and the next day I got a red x on my speaker icon and suddenly no sound. Sound works when i plug the hdmi to the TV but the realtek hd audio driver is now hidden and shows this error code. Currently, this hardware device is not connected to the computer. (Code 45). When I return to the states I'll be sending it to MSI to get fixed and I'll use an external audio card until then but this leads me to my current problem.
    2) After reformating and reinstalling the drivers Dragon Center Gaming won't start. I've tried upgrading to Net workspace 4.6 RC and reinstalling the Intel Management Firmware Update driver (which also doesn't update btw) but no good. Dragon Center worked before the format but after so many formats for the first issue i'm frankly reluctant for another. Here is the event viewer log:

  • How can I set the guests to auto start after the primary reboots?

    For version 1.2 of LDOM software, how do I set the guests to automatically start after I reboot the primary? Right now if I do this:
    ldm stop -f guest1
    reboot primary
    guest1 will be bound and manually started with ldm start
    ldmd is set to start at boot.
    Thanks, Kevin

    Try running ldm set-var auto-boot\?=true guest1This will set the LDOM guest openboot parameter "auto-boot" to true and it should boot automatically when the Primary restarts.

  • MSI Gaming Center won't start

    Hi! I had to reformat my notebook early because a virus was bothering my notebook's performance. After I reformatted it, I think everything seemed to work fine except my MSI Gaming Center. When I click it, nothing happens even if I click the buttons for it on the keyboard.
    Is this the only thing that happens when reformatting a notebook because I might have missed something since I reformatted it when my laptop is more than a week old?
    I was looking for an answer here in the forums before over google but it seemed to be removed when I click it. Any links or solutions here?

  • How to stop Firefox 4.0 to auto download?

    After the countdown end for Megaupload, Firefox automatically download the file. How can I stop this?

    Mozilla simplified opening Firefox in the SafeMode, and got rid of the Program Files menu item for it.
    As '''alan_r''' mentioned, you can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    Or you can use the Help menu item, '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running.
    To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut ''(without the Shft key)'' to open it again.

  • How to stop my Preview button from auto putting files to the server?

    Hi, I just had a tech guy to my house helping me with dreamweaver and when he left my program is working differently.  It did not automatically put files when I previewed them.  Now I can't preview anything without it putting the file to the server.  I created a contact form as a php file.  Could that have anything to do with this change?  I appreciate your assistance!

    Hi, I actually had to turn off the test button to the server to stop it.  In preferences nothing was changed.  I have checked "prompt on put" and "prompt on get".
    It only stops putting my files while I have the testing unchecked.  Thanks for your reply.  I really appreciate it.
