    Maybe.

    I know for sure now that sense and fusion IS part of cc.

    CC should have been the last thing to install after a clean install.

    i think you got it when you talked about the youcam and such.
    but it seems odd that it would not at least show up still....

    I think I'm going to create a threat that states the side effects of using Windows 7 on the M17X. First of all, Command Center isn't fully compatible with Windows 7. Alien Sense and Alien Fusion are not supported.
