Color temperature settings gone after I intalled Catalyst 14.9

[Carnage1986]

Today, i downloaded and installed AMD Catalyst 14.9 WHQL. And then, color temperature options on digital flat panel settings tap disappeared.

So, what i can do to bring it back? I can't use f.lux because this software messes colors until re-install Windows.

Same here.
In 14.8 it was there

Now in 14.9 WHQL it's gone

I think they moved it to the Desktop color setting under the Desktop Management drop-down. At work so I can't double check, but I'm pretty sure it's still available, just a different spot. Will check when I get home.

It's under My Digital Flat-Panels

No it's gone. Or only in some computers, this issue happens.

oh i see...
I assumed (wrongly?) that Color Temperature used to be under Desktop Management -> Desktop Color

All I can say is that it's there in my CCC with a clean install of the 14.9's
So all I can maybe add is what/how I did it.
1: I uninstalled the old drivers using control panel / Uninstall / AMD Cat Install manager -
Selected Remove ALL AMD software AND let it uninstall drivers then select to remove Cat Control Panel also. (rebooted) (obviously don't do remove all if youre not running an Intel system)
2: Ran DDU and let it reboot to safe mode and used clean/restart for AMD and remove c\AMD folder checked (Display Driver Uninstaller 13.4.0.0) (rebooted)
3: Once rebooted, checked device manager and be sure it was standard VGA Adapter. ( I always check, it's just a habit)
4: Installed 14.9 driver with custom installation just to be sure raptor/gaming evolved app wasn't installed as usual. (it wasnt even in the list for this driver install)(rebooted)

No issues at all on both my PCs, one with a R9 290 and another with 7950's in x-fire.
Sorry if it doesn't help you, but that is about all I can offer.

Ahhhh....I see.
If I disconnect my DVI cable and use HDMI instead, it disappears.
Are you using HDMI?

 

[Carnage1986]

I use a DVI cable.

I tried completely fresh install and it didn't work.

 

[guskline]

report it to the AMD development team.

Do you have a display that supports 32 bit RGB?

 

[MTDEW]

I see in the CCC pic in your original post that you have these two options listed under My Digital Flat-Panels.
Scaling Options (Digital Flat Panel)
Pixel Format
I don't have either of those options in DVI, only when I'm using HDMI.

 

[Carnage1986]

I'm sure that this is DVI. I looked some forums and i learned some people suffer this problem. We are waiting for a fix.

It's under My Digital Flat-Panels

Yep. You are right. I misremembered. Color Temperature Control is definitely available under Digital Flat-Panels.

I did a complete uninstall and ran Display Driver Uninstaller before installing the new CCC. I would suggest giving that a try if you haven't already. Good luck!

LOL, Im sure you do. :thumbsup:
I was just wondering why the AMD drivers are treating your monitor like an HDTV using DVI.
I've gotten used to the AMD drivers treating a monitor hooked up using HDMI as an HDTV over the years. (and its annoying)
But this is the first Ive seen/heard of it happening with a DVI connection.
EDIT: I just checked and It does it if I have two monitors hooked up and one is using HDMI also....(ie: I lose the color temp setting on the monitor using DVI)

Hope they get it fixed 4 U.

If I turn back to 14.4 and install 14.9 w/o Catalyst Control Center, will I encounter another issue?
