Since I upgraded my Alienware 14 laptop from Windows 7 to Windows 10 a few months ago, the Alienware control panel (that controls the LED lighting as well as stuff like special touchpad gestures) has completely disappeared. I can't find it anywhere in the OS. I searched all over Alienware and Dell's websites and can't find any place to download it. If anyone has ideas or has experiences similar issues please help.

Just get a win 7 or win 8 driver and see if it works.

Before you buy amp and dac.  My thoughts on the M50x  Ultimate Ears Reference monitor review I might have a thing for audio...

My main Headphones and IEMs:  K612 pro, HD 25 and Ultimate Ears Reference Monitor, HD 580 with HD 600 grills

DAC and AMP: RME ADI 2 DAC

Speakers: Genelec 8040, System Audio SA205

Receiver: Denon AVR-1612

Desktop: R7 1700, GTX 1080  RX 580 8GB and other stuff

Laptop: ThinkPad P50: i7 6820HQ, M2000M. ThinkPad T420s: i7 2640M, NVS 4200M

Feel free to pm me if you have a question for me or quote me. If you want to hear what I have to say about something just tag me.

just download the win7 drivers and give them a spin.

EDIT: that seems to be only for older alienwares, i'm sure looking around their website will get you what you need tho.

There is a place you can go on Dell's support page to redownload the AW control panel. You have to do a search for your laptop, and the easiest way would be by service tag. Once the list of downloads appears, it should be in the Utilities section. Let me know if you need more help, yeah?
