  • T400, cannot start the Catalyst Control Center - error 'GPU active not supported'.

    on a machine running vista business 64-bit current t400.

    last week all was hunky dory.  This week, when I try to open my ati catalyst (CCC) control center, I have the following error:

    "ATI catalyst control center cannot be started because the active gpu is not managed.

    I read a few posts on this problem from not using the ATI graphics card and being rather on the integrated graphics card.  indicate the positions I could reactivate CCC simply by clicking on the battery icon in the system tray and selecting "mode high performance" to force the machine to use the discreet graphics card.  After I do and then try to start the CCC, I get the same error as above.  at this point after switching to the mode high peformance, my device manager also lists "mobile Intel (r) 4 series express chipset family ' as my graphics again.  If I have left or right click on the battery icon in the status bar, I don't see any options for explicitly switching cards.

    the card driver intel 4 mobile is listed as being from ATI to version 8.520.4.4000.

    I'm not sure of my version of the driver for the ATI card.  and I don't know where to look for it.

    to my knowledge, nothing but a number of 'critical' windows updates have changed on my system between the time when CCC was working last week now.

    any suggestions on how to fix this?  and what it does to stop working?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I finally thought to it.  and no new drivers or relocations were necessary.  at the end of the day, all I had to do was turn on version lenovo Power Manager (which appear in my taskbar like a horizontal green battery with the number of minutes of use remaining).  from there I can left click and access the menu that has the switchable graphics option where I can choose the economy of energy or high performance.  If a from there, I select high performance, I can then open CCC.

    the important thing please note this is to access this menu, you must be using power management program of LENOVO thinkVantage (sticking the Green battery on your taskbar icon), NOT windows built in the power manager, which appears as a vertical grey/blue /? battery in the tray system (at least on mine).  Once you have, you can explicitly pass the graphics cards.

    the strange thing is, I had been accessing CCC without explicitly switching the cards without problem until last week.  so in a way that the default setting should of spent high-performance energy saving, thus putting me on the integrated graphic card unless I went it manually.  weird.

    slide, thank you for your help.  I appreciate it.  and it is an interesting note on freeing more memory by disabling the switchable graphics.  I'll probably this give it a shot and see how I like it.  memory is never bad!

    Thanks again to everyone who helped.

    Now corrected to my laptop an error of ATI Catalyst Control Center.

    I had given up the uninstall/reinstall and register pluck and sweep, so I ran Intel graphics all the time.

    I voted against reinstall .NET 3.5, 3.0, 2.0... as I didn't aggravate and lose even more time, since I have a working machine.

    The other day the matrix Driver Lenovo had a video update.

    V8.712 - 100302 b - 097094C

    Applying this version fixes my ATI Catalyst Control Center.

  • Catalyst Control Center stopped working - error CLR20r3

    Hello

    I recently bought a game, Armed Assault, which is not a whole new game and my Satellite (I'm sorry, but I don't know exactly which series) has the requirementes right good graphics system.

    I know that the GPU of my graphics (ATI Radeon 4200 Mobile) is not the best, but I had to do the graphics as low as possible to get a stable framerate.

    So, I wanted to find the graphics card with the Catalyst Control Center settings... but this no longer works, it just does not start and says that there is an error CLR20r3 and that the Application has stopped working.

    It's not bad for me, but I was wondering if I can change all the options or something like that to make the fastest GPU / more effective?

    Hello

    CLR20r3 error can be caused by damaged registry entries
    I would first recommend setting the BONE at the beginning point of time before this error appears
    Use the internal tool to restore the system Win 7.

    If this does not work, uninstall the graphics card ATI catalyst and .NET framework system.
    Then install the CCLeaner and clean the system and the registry.
    Reboot several times run CCLeaner once more and install the software deleted once more.

  • How can I fix windows 7 Catalyst control center host application has stopped working

    I received the error: Catalyst Control Centre: host application has stopped working. I uninstalled the Device Manager Catalyst Control Center and restarted - after uninstall and reboot I got the same message saying: Catalyst Control Center: the host application has stopped working - I also checked for driver updates in the Device Manager and the device manager says my driver updates are up-to-date.

    I just received a response from AMD for a known issue with Catalyst Control Center and Windows 7.  You can go there.  It worked for me the first time after a lot of troubleshooting.

    How to solve the CCC is not loading/opening at initialization.

    Scenario: the user tries to open/load the CCC through different methods, but it does not load. The problem may occur without any changes to the system or a Catalyst driver update or reinstall. This is issue mainly affects Windows 7 machines.

    Cause: possible corruption of the Windows Global Assembly Cache (GAC). Usually, this requires the user to format and reinstall Windows.

    Resolution: this solution has been tested - reproduced and resolved.

    Remove all the ATI through programs and features in Control Panel using the Manager to install Catalyst (GPC). Restart the system in safe mode and follow these steps:

    -Remove all ATI C:\programs files files and the C:\programs files (x 86)

    -Go to the C:\Windows\assembly and sort by "public key token. Locate the following key token public "90ba9c70f846762e" which is

    -associated with ATI. Usually only 2 entries. Remove 2 entries. Note: entries should be deleted (right click and select uninstall) since regular safe mode

    -mode may cause a permissions error. 2 entries appear only in the systems concerned by this issue. This means that you want the 2 inputs on systems where the CCC charges, the entries do not exist.

    -Close and restart normally.

    -Reinstall the ATI Catalyst package.

    I hope that you will get in working order!

  • Catalyst Control Center: Host has stopped working

    Whenever I start my old Toshiba laptop computer for 3 years, I get this message: host of Catalyst Control Center has stopped working and then nothing. I check the current update drivers says it all day, but I went on this site called Driver Whiz and he says I'm wrong 8 things with my computer Says: Standard AHCI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller... out of date... then 2 ATI HDMI Audio... updated... then system devices said ATI 1/0 5 MB... updated... communication processor and then disconnected devices : 4 JMB38X MS Host peripheral COntroller is disconnected, but they want 50 buck for them to fix it when I downloaded what I thought was that it was free so now it's on my computer...

My Toshiba Service Station does not work and tried to contact Toshiba as well, but yet they want the money for technical advice. I know that somebody here is tech savey and I am disabled and do not have the money to repair this laptop so please can someone there give me info on how to get back to his old self of my machine? Oh and btw, I did a system restore, but this message from Catalyst Control Center is yet to come. PLEASE HELP ME AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

    "I went on this site called Driver Whiz and he says I'm wrong 8 things with my computer.
    Don't believe one thing, or say similar sites. They are only after your money.
    To top it off they often install software that can be difficult to uninstall, and if
    you don't uninstall it you get messages.
    It seems that there are a lot of discussions about uninstalling the program driver Wiz, but I
    guess the best place to start is to their own site-

If you started having problems after that Windows updates don't you have a restore point from the system that dates back to before that you did?
