    For Direct Console, you may try to reinstall it and find if any of your software conflict with it (especially LCDHype).
    But I don't understand what you mean "media center button" ?

    The button with RoG logo is the Direct Console's one? How could it start MCE?

    sry my bad.. you're right the Hot Key With RoC logo should start Direct Console, and the Lightning starts media center..

    im trying to reinstall all ATK software, but it still doesn't work..

    The lighting is for ExpressGate function. In windows, it is supposed to do nothing. I think it start MCE because you installed ATK Media. Installing it also give you the ability to start MCE when you press media keys (Fn+arrow keys).
    Visit this, it may help you.
