    How many items do you show in the command center?
    My machine only shows FX, and sence, other two are not available, that is ok though.

    when I installed W7 I had to start FX from the command center then create a scheme, save it and presto now they work. I think what is happening is that the reinstall does not set up a default scheme.

    Also, there are numerous listings when you look on the m17x side and the command center. CC cleaner works well cleaning out the old versions of the command center as stated in the threads.

    I myself am not using the latest version because compatiblity issues with OSD and W7-64
