    So I got my first BSOD today, and the error was : syntyp.sys

    Apparently that has to do with the synaptics touchpad driver? Just curious if I have the latest one, or if I should revert to an older one. I'm currently on 19.3.4.66.

    Hi, I actually googled the issue and came across this!

    I have done it, and so far so good, I will obviously have to do more testing and time will tell, but I believe it is the proper solution for right now!

    Sorry man, i don´t have those units in stock anymore.
    Most of the P6HP will work, the only that may be different is Audio/SBX/ControlCenter, everything else should be the same.

    I'd like to say big thank you to Obsidian-PC, its a really great tool, something like that should come from the factory.

    I discovered small issue regarding the Audio driver for P870KM1-G: the current audio driver is reported as version 6.0.1.8004 while there is update to latest 6.0.1.8040 available. After updating the version of the updated one becomes again 6.0.1.8004 and expects to be updated after refresh. It seems that it is the issue of the version information only.

    Hi John :) Since you're officially our savior right now (and it's true, I can confirm), do we need to prepare for a new update of the tool soon?

    The tool will have some bug fixes, and some new features, i was busy the last days doing something like Teamviewer for our brand (will probably include it in a app tab called "support" which should be something for clients only).

    PS. If you guys have ideas for new features, you can always tell me, if it´s something i can code i will do it.

    My $0.02 worth.
    Just looked for a Hotkey update and found Control Center AP 5.0001.1.25 on the Clevo site while the app says Control Center AP 5.0001.1.04 is the latest.

    Is this perhaps because Control Center AP 5.0001.1.04 has "Windows 10 64-bit" in the description and the other one doesn't?

    Yes it seems like that there's a new Control Center version available for P7xxDM2/P7xxDM3 models on Clevo Website, released on 31 May 2017.

    Last one in the attached pic:

    upload_2017-6-1_10-2-36.png

    Link download Control Center AP 5.0001.1.25

    I would be very careful before of using it, however.

    John, do you know something about this new version? Do you plan to release one without XTU?

    Sometimes, it messes with the fan profiles and (at least for me) the stability of the system.

    New Version: 1.03.07

    Fixed wrong behavior with the "Update All" button
    Fixed wrong "Update Available" report in the BIOS Tab

    Downloading new CLEVO Control Center versions, will update when download finishes.

    A small bug report: when updating the tools themselves, the old taskbar icon remains, so windows shows two icons until you hover over the old one.

    I believe that is actually a old MS "bug".
    I could kill the icon before update or something, but there should not be a need for that if MS was not lame :p

    Can confirm that that is a quirk of Windows itself. The company I work for as the same problem for one of our products.
    Maybe you can call some form of taskbar/notificationbar "forced" update.

    It´s kinda easy to solve with QT.
    Just add a option to hide the systray on the "Update" button.

    on

    MainWindow: :pushbutton_clicked()
    {
    QSystemTrayIcon::hide();
    //other stuff
    }

    That's not a solution, it's a workaround. Because the icon representation will still be in memory making it a kind of memory leak.
    Or maybe I'm wrong and according to this, QT will probably send then command to dispose of the memory.
    But I'll give you some pointer over TeamViewer :p

    Does anyone know what the use of FlexiAccess is and how I can disable it permanently?

    When I first downloaded CCC, I believe FlexiAcess was always turned off by default and never turned on. I was playing around with it, and clicked it now the Wifi FlexiAccess turns on automatically. Either It always did that or I triggered it to always come on now. I'm not sure if this affects the laptop at all however.

    Just wondering, are there any settings where I can change it from not coming on all the time?

    You mean P751DM-G VS P751DM2-G right?
    No not all drivers are the same.
    AUDIO
    CONTROLCENTER
    SBX

    At least those 3 are not the same, everything else is OK.

    If you need to download those 3 i have them online for the P751DM-G: https://www.obsidian-pc.com/en/downloads#files/Drivers/Old Models/P7x1DM-G

    If you use SBX software then you need to get AUDIO and SBX drivers from the link i gave early. -> But hey you can try the app too and let us know if it works :p
    Thunderbolt you can also use the app.
