    Cannot install Catalyst Control Center after switching motherboards.


    I had to swap my motherboard, because the first one died. After I swapped it I noticed that I could not use Catalyst Control Center on my laptop, which led me to find a solution to my problem. After searching for about a few days I couldn't find any solution. I used to be able to right click and then left click catalyst control center, but after the swapping it said something about the config if I recall correctly. I thought that I could uninstall it and then reinstall it but it didn't work and now I'm here.

    I've tried using DriverSweeper in Safe Mode after uninstalling the drivers, reformatting my laptop, and a bunch more.

    I have a switchable graphics laptop that is supposed to switch between the integrated and the Radeon HD 6770M, if it helps somehow.

    It may have something to do with a different bios version in your new board that threw ccc off, or your Radeon HD is disabled in the bios. have you looked into your bios settings?

    No, I have not looked into the BIOS. I'm generally too scared to go there, since I'm not that great with computers. Is there something specific I should look for?

    EDIT:
    I have checked the BIOS and I saw nothing that has anything to do with the Radeon HD. Do I need to update my BIOS?

    EDIT:
    I have updated my BIOS through the HP setup thing (dv6t-6100 CTO Quad Edition) and the BIOS is still the same.

    I'm a little confused. Are you having this problem with your radeon drivers from a fresh installation or the same installation you had with the old board? In other words, did you re-install windows (or do a factory restore) after you installed this board?

    I did a factory restore after I installed this board (newer one).

    have you attempted to install the driver verification tool from the AMD website?

    here is the latest driver from the hp website as well.

    AMD High-Definition Graphics Driver - HP Pavilion dv6t-6100 CTO Quad Edition Entertainment Notebook PC | HP® Support

    I would remove the video driver from your device manager and reboot before installing either one of these. just to be sure that it is a clean start with no conflictions.
