    I'm having the same problem. I'm not sure what version of Hotkey it is, I downloaded it with the rest of the Win 8 drivers from the Sager site.

    Hi guys,

    I'm on the road and I'm trying to use my on-board microphone on the NP 8130. Can someone send me a link for the appropriate driver, or is there something else I need to do? Anyway, the sound driver link in the OP does not work. Thanks for any assistance.

    I don't have the Switchable Graphics either, but the driver works fine. How did you install the driver, and on what OS ?

    I tested it, result: NEGATIVE!

    I didn't feel any hot air coming off when I was playing BF3, fps was 20-30 (near 40 with beta4) but there's no difference with Sleeping Dogs exhaust burns my hand. I can't check temperature or GPU usage it doesn't show up (I think that's because beta driver but I've never used beta I'm not sure) but it's obviously below %50.

    I have 12.10CCC and everything worked fine with beta4 (except BF3, again. 9/10 whitescreen at start) Settings are all the same. Probably something is wrong with driver, AGAIN! If it's not broken, don't fix it AMD!

    Ever since 12.11 the performance over all has improved. I'm not getting BSODs or any other problems others are having. Not to sound like a jerk but you're probably doing it wrong. It's unfair to just blame AMD for everything especially now that I see huge improvements on my end with none of the issues others are reporting.

    And again, I've seen people post instructions on how to update their drivers, but the way I do it is very simple. This is what I do:

    I uninstall CAP.
    Restart.
    I uninstall drivers.
    Restart.
    I try uninstalling the drivers again in "Programs and Features", if it takes out some files, I reboot, if it does nothing I proceed to the next step.
    I install new drivers.
    Restart.
    I install CAP.
    Restart.
    Done.

    I don't use any driver sweeper or any registry cleaners. I have never, ever had any problem since buying my P170EM. The one time I did get a BSOD, it was entirely my fault because I did the order wrong. It hasn't happened ever since.

    Hmm, not sure why. It should still be there. Did you mess with the registry or registry cleaners? Just do a normal uninstall and reinstall. Maybe try reinstalling latest Intel too.

    I solved BF3's problem. You must force it to high performance or it will work at %50. Thing I don't understand is power saving gives 5-6 fps, high performance gives 40-50fps but when I don't configure myself it it's in the middle of two.

    Update: Do a clean install and everything works fine. Installing on older drivers was always worked fine for me. If you happen to see BSOD, install latest Intel's driver that's what forced me a clean install.

    As I said in the P150HM owners thread... can anyone with the official Protector Suite 2009 (for our notebooks) export this registry path and atach it here? I want to check if the 2012 version works with it (because it should) Thanks in advance!

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Protector Suite QL\1.0]

    Can anyone add a program for quick launch in the Authentec True Suite (Fingerprint) on Windows 8? I can do it with the stock version for Windows 7 but not with the Windows 8 version.

    I know, i have it too, but the problem is that it's running on a demo version and with the license key of our hardware... it should work fully. Authentec no longer supports it and purchasing the full version independently is no longer possible.

    Guys Im having trouble with my hotkey driver. First off, my Fn key works for most things but for some reason whenever I log in I have to turn on my backlight and also i cant access the program to change the color of the backlight. All of the problems started when i performed a system restore after BSODing so many times with the new VGA beta driver for the 7970m. Anyway, I try to download the hotkey driver and i get the error. So i read that I should first uninstall the current hotkey driver on my computer but it isnt listed in the add/remove programs list so how can i do that?

    the true suite is the one u need a license for,not the protector suite. that one is free to use, so to say. which specific function do u need that the protector suite doesnt provide?

    I think you confuse them; it's Protector Suite 2012 the one limited, True Suite is free.

    Because you had the older version installed. Where the license is, for our platforms. :)

    I'll get back with a fix.

    Catalyst Application Profiles. It's primarily meant for dual AMD GPU configurations and how they scale across various graphics accelerated applications.

    may sound stupid but could help you out there: go through the checklist of all ur internal devices that would possibly need drivers installed and see if those show up in the device manager.
    like wifi, gpu, card reader, ethernet, touchpad, usb3, etc.
    as a reference, u could just go to the clevo download page to check and see which devices they got listed there in the driver page :)

    I think it should be Intel Management Engine driver and Fingerprint driver, you can download those two on Clevo website.

    Just curious, are the drivers on clevo's site for P1XXEm compatible with P150HM? If not, is there a list of what works and not? I'm considering the jump to Win8, and it seems Sager / Clevo won't release the updated driver for Win8 for our models. Sorry if anyone has ever asked this before, but I'm too lazy to comb over ~100 pages.
