    Hi !

    I noticed yesterday that there was a new software taking the place of Hotkey, and it is Clevo Control Center. Seeing it was displayed for the P150SM-A, I figured why not try it on my P150SM, as it is mainly the same PC, with the only difference being the BIOS. I also updated my BIOS to the latest version available.

    Almost everything is working as expected, but no automatic startup (might require admin rights, still got to try it) and two things not working : Fan Speed control (if I put Maximum, nothing changes), Left Win Key disabling and Keyboard backlighting (I can select mode but I can't choose colors and apply them).

    Is this a normal behavior ? (if it is, I might as well go back to Hotkey). Are these P1XXSM-A specific functions ?

    Thanks,

    Likely they are yes. Keep an eye out for bios updates though.

    Where exactly am I supposed to check for Sager BIOS updates? They aren't on the drivers page.

    was asked about hotkeys a few days ago.
    some of the newer models have different key layouts.
    Fn + F12 is no longer bluetooth but sends you to control centre.
    can anyone shed light on how to get to wifi and bluetooth shortcuts. i did read through one of the manuals but couldnt find them in the new control centre.
