Application of Catalyst control centre: Host has stopped working

I get a pop-up window saying: "Catalyst control centre: host application has stopped working.". "

It is written in the body of the box: "a problem caused blocking program woring correctly. Windiows will close the program and notify you if there is a solution. "

My PC is slow to respond, even web browsing. I have Microsoft security essentials and you have run a full scan. Nothing has beeb found. I check my GPU drivers and have updated to the latest.

I called HP technical support and said he thought that my hard drive was the problem. I spent 40 minutes on the phone with him and found nothing wrong with the hard drive.

I've only had the PC 8 months. He told me that he'd phone back the next day and didn't.

Here are my PC specs:

Model: CQ1140UK

CPU: AMD E-450 APU with 1.65 GHz Radeon HD graphics card

RAM: 4 GB

OS: 64 - bit Windows 7

GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6320

Hello Shenmue,

We will try a few things. The first thing is to check to make sure that you have the latest and greatest drivers. Microsoft will install drivers for your video card, but they may not always have the best.

You can find the driver from making page for your card video here

AMD - Support & drivers

If you don't know which drivers to use the tool available to them on their Web site.

The next thing is an easy control and is usually not the case, but it is always important to check and it's to make sure that the directory it is trying to run is not hidden.

Go to c:\ and right-click on the users. Select Properties. On the general tab, look down to the hidden selection. If not, there is a box to tick in the box, place a check mark. Hit apply, select Yes to apply to all subdirectories. If you click ok, you may notice that he disappeared in the pane on the right, once it ends. It should always appear in the tree view on the left. Right click on it again. This time, remove the check mark and apply to all subdirectories.

    I uninstall the drivers ATI and the CCC software via programs and features and then go to the download page of Toshiba for new drivers. It can be pilots became corrupt, but the "updater" does not know this. It checks only to a version of file.

    Has anyone else with similar problems.
    I tried to reinstall the drivers on the toshiba site, and install the new drivers on the ATI site and all I could think about. Given that the two pilots do not work im not able to exceed the resolution 1024 x 768.

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    I googled for this error message and found many people having this problem.
    It s not related to the laptop, but for the driver
    Who knows why.

    In any case, in most cases the people solved this problem by the new driver Catalyst installation.
    You should do this;

    -upgrade your Vista to the last State
    -remove the old system catalyst
    remove/uninstall the graphics since the device manager driver
    -Restart the computer and reinstall the driver and catalyst

    Should work!

    Catalyst Control Center is a Radeon video card component. I recommend that you go into Add/Remove programs and uninstall. Once you have uninstalled it click HERE to download and enable the parser should automatically detect and install the appropriate driver. If the installation of the latest version does not resolve the problem, you should scan your computer for malware using Malwarebytes. Make sure that you update the parser prior to analysis.

  • Catalyst Control Centre: host application has stopped working

    What does the error message ' Catalyst Control Centre: host application has stopped working "means and how to fix it?

    Maybe it's the solution you're looking for.

    Recently, I removed the malware recovery Vista of another of our mobile phones of the company Center. It installed ATI graphics card. This malware cache most of the files on the PC to try to trick into thinking that your PC is really damaged as he reports. Remove malware does not cancel the hidden aspects. In Vista, the folder of' your profile name (usually the owner) " c:\Users\ contains the subdirectory AppData required by the Catalyst Control Center to access in order to operate. If this directory is hidden, CCC cannot locate the files needed to launch. To resolve this problem, I use the following steps.

    Go to c:\ and right-click on the users. Select Properties. On the general tab, look down to the hidden selection. If not, there is a box to tick in the box, place a check mark. Hit apply, select Yes to apply to all subdirectories. If you click ok, you may notice that he disappeared in the pane on the right, once it ends. It should always appear in the tree view on the left. Right click on it again. This time, remove the check mark and apply to all subdirectories. Once it's over, your files in the Users directory should reappear and Catalyst Control Center should function normally again. It worked in all cases that I have hitherto encounterd. I hope this works for you as well...

  • Catalyst Control Centre: host application has stopped working disk failure / hard

    recently started to receive some ' catalyst control centre: host application has stopped working "or messages, usually, I get this message twice.

    I tried a virus scan first, defragged my hard drive and tried some system restore points and was able to recover some, not all, desktop icons and my experience, but that's all. all my files are gone, I don't know if it's two separate issues or both part of the same issue, but I would like any info or suggestions on how to get my files back. I've saved over 2 years worth of music that I wrote that I really need to come back! Thanks for all comments and advice

    I just had the same thing happen. lost a lot of files. most is saved but we just moved and my backup HD are still packed. seems that there is a major conflict. check the file sizes in the main files, they are big like my files are there, but when I go down the root more that they are not and the file sizes in these folders don't add to the main folder above? I hope they are just invisible but recoverable. anyone with recommendations.
