    Alright, so I had my M17xR3 with no Command center on it.
    I installed one which ended up being for the wrong laptop, so I couldnt change my AlienFX colors. However, this CC had AlienSense on it and I logged in using it 2 or 3 times.
    Then I found the correct, newest CC for the m17xr3 and installed it.
    I now have the AlienFX working but the Aliensense tab is completely gone.
    I actually liked Aliensense because I could just sit my laptop down and go do something, come back over and look at it and it would log me in. I tried the 5 day fastaccess trial (same as aliensense basically) and it was fine but... that's a 5 day trial.
    I bought the laptop used and the only things I got were the laptop, the charger, and the Win 7 install disk (official one, but doesnt have drivers or anything on it.. just some special wallpapers.)

    Long story short, how/where can I get Aliensense?

    You can get AlienSense from Dell Support. Go to Drivers section, M17xR3, then Application Section, Install both softwares.

    One of the files was an update for on-screen display. Installed it anyway, and the other was the same version of Command Center as I have.. Installed it anyway but still no AlienSenes :(

    I think AlienSense is only available on the older version of M17x, like the R2 or the R1, because the newer version only have the FX, Fusion, Touch, and the Adrenaline (M11xR3, M14xR2, M17xR4 & M18xR2 only), though I can be wrong.

    AlienSense bit the dust a while back. Would only be available whilst using an outdated version of Command Center.
