Which Control Center do I download?
I am getting ready to do a fresh windows 10 install on my Alienware Aurora. Which control center software download do I need to use? I keep seeing references to R3 and R4 in the discussions. However, my computer information for model just says Aurora so I am a bit confused. Can someone please tell me the name of the control center file for me to do a search on to find it?
Thank you in advance.

Your Aurora shipped in early 2010. It is the Aurora-R1. Unfortunately, Windows 10 was never validated on this model.
The last Command Center validated for the Aurora-R1 was 2.8.9.0. But it only works in Windows 7. Even if you get Windows 10 to install correctly, we cannot say if the Windows 10 compatible Command Centers will run on that model.

Thank you for the information. I will give it a shot tomorrow night once my new SSD is delivered.
