Restoring "Intel Control Center"

Hello all, I received my new T520 yesterday, and have been exploring it and acclimating myself to Windows 7 Pro x64. I may have some comments/questions once I get the system updated/configured and further checked out. I haven't taken it online yet. For now, I could use some advice WRT correctly my first ooops. An inadvertent double-click led to the uninstall of "Intel Control Center". I'm not exactly sure what that is, but I would feel better if I could reinstall it. Is anyone here familiar with that and familiar with the means via which I can get it back on my system? Thanks in advance
Solved!

AFAIK, it lets you manage all of your Intel components from one place. I've always chose not to install it during driver upgrades. All I think it actually does is link to other Intel programs, which isn't too useful.

  • Can't install Intel Control Center (former MSM) in Windows Server 2008 R2

    I'm running WS2008 R2 with SP1. Everything is great but I need to add monitoring of my RAID1 system volume. It's installed on onboard Intel chip. Latest driver installed succesfully but Intel Control Center asks for .NET 3. How do I install it? It's not
    available in Windows Update.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    According to the following link, there is no version of Intel Desktop Control Center for Windows Server 2008 directly.

  • Where is Intel Control Center install / where do I find the program for Intel HD Graphics options?

    Hello,
    I reinstalled the NVidia Quadro 2000M driver, which also reinstalled Intel HD graphics.  I did this because I was having problems opening up Photoshop 5 - not sure if I needed to do that, because the problem remained afterwards, but then magically, it works every time now.  So something fixed itself.
    Anyway, after it reinstalled Intel HD Graphics, the Intel Control Center button, which opens Intel HD Graphics options does not work.  I realize that the Intel Control Center is just a simple front-end with a couple of buttons, but how can I get it to work again?... I cannot find the install program.  Also, as an alternative, where is the executable to get to the Intel HD Graphics - and what is its name?
    Thanks!

    From the Finder, hold down the option key and click on the "Go" menu bar. You'll see your user Library listed there.

    Even before getting to single user mode access and the like the boot process calls on the OS, Scott (in the form of the "BootX" bootloader, which lives at System/Library/CoreServices/BootX.)
    You can read more about the boot sequence used in OSX at http://www.kernelthread.com/mac/osx/arch_boot.html and http://www.kernelthread.com/mac/osx/arch_startup.html
    These may not be quite up to date, as they were written when Macs were running on PPC chips rather than intel, but essentially the sequence of events is much the same.

    in your signature you have listed BIOS 2.5
    Quote
    and ME version 8.1.50.1456  i think this is all current is it not?
    basically yes, unless your ME version is somehow corrupted,
    or when bios was flashed your ME wasn't updated
    if issue persist reflash the bios to the one that i linked you,
    its still newest than 2.12 and will include proper ME update,
    so you will know that issue isn't there after reflashing

    other things that you can try before flashing:
    install reinstall ME drivers from MSI web for your board:
    http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_me81_win78_xp.zip
    you said that you already done this..
    you can also try with those ME drivers instead: http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_me10_mb.zip
    and are you using control center 2.5.060
    from msi web for your board?: http://www.msi.com/support/mb/Z77AG45.html#down-utility&Win8.1 64

    sounds like some kind of OS mess or driver mess,
    you can try to load some of older windows restore point
    assume if you haven't flashed anything and worked fine before

  • Control Center Debug Error

    A few days ago I installed the latest version of Control Center, 2.5.060, and it worked fine until today when it started putting up a debug error, "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way". I tried uninstalling it and re-installing it, also tried doing a system restore to about a day ago when I'm pretty sure the problem wasn't there.
    This problem came up after making some changes to the IME. I updated to the latest version but ran into a transient problem where the IME driver was failing when coming out of suspend,  so I tried rolling back to the previous version. That seemed to fix the problem with the driver failing but then the problem came up with Control Center. So I tried updating to the latest version again, now it seems to be working when coming out of suspend but Control Center isn't. If I click on ignore it just hangs at the loading screen and has to be manually terminated, if I click retry it just crashes.
    I previously had a problem with Control Center putting up the error message about replacing the IME version. I solved that by turning off Control Center Count. Now I've tried it with and without Control Center Count running but just get the same debug error no matter what.
    Specs;
    CPU: Intel Core i5 3570k @ 3.4 GHz

    Edit: Just noticed that I'm getting the same problem with ClickBios
    Also tried rolling back to the previous version of Control Center, no luck there.

  • 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,
    Saptarishi

  • I can't change music from the control center.

    I just got the iOS 7 update for my iPhone 4S and think its great. The only problem is that when I go to change/stop/play a song in the control center, it wont let me. Although, I can still adjust the volume?!? I am so confused.

    Hello Gonzoboy11,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    First I would recommend that you restart your iPhone:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    From: iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

    If the issue persists, then I would backup and restore the iPhone.

  • Can't open Control Center on the Lockscreen after using Siri

    Hello everyone,
    I have got a little bug since iOS 8 and still be there in iOS 8.1 on my iPhone 5S (32Go).
    After requesting Siri something and get back to the lockscreen, i can't open the Control Center but I can still open Notification Center. After lock my phone and turn it on, I can open again the Control Center.
    Is there someone else with this little bug ?
    Thanks you all
    Bye

    No, I do not. I even tested it as soon as I saw your post. With the phone locked, I asked Siri to do something, after tapping to close it, it went back to the lock screen, I swiped upwards and Control Center came right up. Are you swiping from off the screen slightly when you start?
    If a restart and reset have not fixed it, then the next two steps in user troubleshooting are restore from backup, then restore as new.

  • T500 ATI Catalyst Control Center cannot be started

    I have some troubles in opening the ATI Catalyst Control Center.There was a window poped out saying that ATI Catalyst Control Center cannot be started because the currently active GPU is not supported. I have already reinstall this drive and the graphic drive. But the problem is not solved. I am wondering what could I do now?

    Right click on the battery in the task bar and make sure your Switchable graphics are set to Performance, if it is in energy savings the ATI control panel will not function, you need to use the Intel graphics setup instead.

  • Catalyst Control Center on the ATI5870 Card in my GX740

    anyone have some tips on tweaking in the CCC? one specific question, should i turn on AMD Overdrive? not really sure what it does, i think i thas something to do with overclocking which i'm not really sure what that is either.
    what about LCD overdrive? on or off in the GX740?

    No, I do not. I even tested it as soon as I saw your post. With the phone locked, I asked Siri to do something, after tapping to close it, it went back to the lock screen, I swiped upwards and Control Center came right up. Are you swiping from off the screen slightly when you start?

  • Issues Control Center from lock screen in iOS 8

    Since getting my iPhone 5S, and iOS 8, there were a couple of times I couldn’t access my camera from my lock screen. I didn’t think anything of it at first — I just brushed it off as carelessness — but then it happened a few more times this weekend. Not only could I not access the Camera, I couldn’t access Control Center either. I would swipe up on my screen, but nothing would happen. I tried multiple times. Nothing. Eventually, hours later, it would work, but I couldn’t figure out why it was only working intermittently.

    There's only a couple things left you can do. One would be to do a restore, the other would be to have the hardware checked at an Apple store or Authorized Apple iPhone Service Provider.

  • W500 failing to start ATI Catalys control center (CCC)

    I have a W500 with an ATI Mobility FireGL V5700 in it.  I had a problem where my external monitor was just blank.  I fount that there was a new ATI driver available from Lenovo which fixes a problem with a blank external monitor. I downloaded and installed it after removing the exitsing ATI driver and the Catalyst Control Center software.  Now whenever I restart my thinkpad, I get the following error:
     Could not load file or assembly 'MOM.implementation, Version=2.0.3713.40523, Culture=neutral, PublicKey Token=90ba9c70f846762e' ...... (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
    If I try to start the CCC itself, I get this error:
    Could not load file or assembly 'CLI.implementation, Version=2.0.3713.40381, Culture=neutral, PublicKey Token=90ba9c70f846762e' ...... (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
    I've searched the net and this forum for solutions, and have found and tried some of them.  Basically they are stating to uninstall the ATI driver and CCC code again, cleanup any residual ATI files, re-install the Microsoft .Net 2.0 code and re-install the ATI driver and CCC code again.  I think I am getting all the residual files, but can't really be sure since there is no comprehensive list.
    I've done this several times to no avail.  Still get same errors above although my blank external monitor seems to be fixed.
    So any other suggestions?
    I have WinXP SP3 installed.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ron

    Make sure you have high performance graphics enabled via Lenovo power manager and in BIOS. If you're only using the Intel chip you will get a blank external monitor.

  • 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.
