    I have a Legacy m15x early 09 model. the system came brand new with windows vista. I finally upgraded to windows 7 ultimate and followed all the instructions to get everything to work right again with the exeption of my aliensence. the command center listed in the m15x my hive thread has everything in it but the aliensence, everything else works perfectly now but I really miss my sence. also those suckers at dell wont let me into my hive because i never signed an account up with my hive and now they say the servers for that system are down and i can not do it now to see if i can find a better command center in there. they want me to pay $180 for them to help me get a command center that works.
    can someone please help me .

    I did read that post yesterday and asked the author of the post if he may have that copy of the command center he used. the funny thing is when I went from windows 7 back to full vista with the alienware restore cd and driver cd. everything works the way it should. when I upgraded back to windows 7 it told me before the installation started that aliensence would not work and it would be wise to uninstall it. i did not. when i loaded 7 aliensence is the only thing that works the way it did in vista. so first thing i did was do all the windows updates, installed tuneup utillities 2013, made a back up image, removed my command center, ran my cleaner, restart , ran my cleaner, restart and proceeded with the directions in the sticky at the top of the forums. when i got to the step of command center I installed then shut of computer waited a minute or two cut back on like listed, start up ,open command center and no aliensence is listed at all. but the command center does fix all the problems with fusion,fx and touch. I looked in the program files for the command center and the files aliensence are not there. so i for the time being have reverted back to my back up image. I is possible to somehow take the files out of my vista command center that i am backed up to now and somehow put them into the same places on the new fixed version that does not have aliensence and get it working ?
