Hi,

I have an Alienware 17 R3 with 2.8Ghz i7 which my purchase invoice says can be boosted to 3.8Ghz.

I've downloaded the correct notebook Alienware Command Center 4.8.23.0_A00 for my service tag and I get AlienFX, AlienFusion, Alienware TactX, and Alienware Adrenaline. Everything works with my Graphics Amplifier and all the panel LEDs can be configured.

I downloaded the correct OC Controls for my system 1.0.4.0_A00-00 but it fails install with "this installation package is not compatible with this computer". Digging a bit deeper I see the vendor return code 4294967293 in the log.

I have enabled CPU boost in the BIOS (1.14 I think), and allowed the setup access through the firewall, and run the setup as an administrator.

Any ideas how I can get the overclocking working and my i7's up to the 3.8Ghz?
