    Also, when I open the Command Center it tells me the device I have selected cannot be detected and is included in the current theme? I have no idea what its talking about lol

    I think you need to update your synaptics driver to the latest version from Dell.
    Is it the latest CC version?

    Try to download the latest synaptics driver from support.Dell.com and install it. I seem to remember this issue from when the cc just came out.
