Fixed (Catalyst Control Center cannot be started. There are currently no settings that can be configured...)

Hi guys, I encountered a problem with my ATI Radeon HD 4670 Video Card when I reformatted my PC from Windows 7 to Windows 8.1. I downloaded the 13.9 Legacy Driver from the AMD / ATI website. After installing the driver, I expected to get a prompt to restart the PC because that is what normally happens when installing a Video Card driver...but in this case, I did not. So I was already thinking something is fishy. So I checked the notification icons for the ATI / AMD icon, I saw no icon. I right clicked on the desktop screen and saw the usual Catalyst Control Center option. I clicked it and as I expected...an error prompt, "Catalyst Control Center cannot be started. There are currently no settings that can be configured..."

Disturbed already...I still went on my reformatting...but as I installed Adobe Creative Suite...I got a whole lot of errors...most of which pointing to system / PC requirements not being met...So this brought me to think it had something to do with the ATI Video Card.

Searching in the internet, I found some suggested fixes that worked for some...but not for me. To list them down, these are:

1. Manually updating the display driver in the device manager. By pointing the driver installation to the downloaded ATI driver.
2. Another is installing "ccc2_install.exe" to C:\Program Files\AMD\CCC2\Install. (I cannot find the program.)
3. Last is basically uninstalling the Video Card Driver and complete software and then using an AMD Clean Uninstall executable file.

After so many searches...I decided to use CPU-Z to determine the exact video card name and model because some downloaded drivers can be for a series like ATI Radeon HD 4600 Series for my ATI Radeon HD 4670. I looked up for a solution and still got the same results. So I decided to combine everything that I got above...and fixed my problem...

Simply, this is what I did:

1. I downloaded the latest ATI Radeon HD 4670 driver from the AMD website.
2. I also downloaded AMD Clean Uninstall Utility 1.4.0.0 from softpedia.
3. I uninstalled AMD from the Program and Features of Control Panel.
• Picking the express uninstall option.
4. After I deleted the AMD folder in the C: drive. (You can also delete all the files in the %temp% folder. - Type %temp% in the start menu search.)
5. I ran the AMD Clean Uninstall Utility and restarted.
6. I then, went on to install the latest 13.9 Legacy driver (latest as of this time) I previously got from the AMD site.
7. At the end of the installation, I got an error prompt showing not all programs installed and there was a link to a log of the installed programs. Clicking it, I saw that everything installed except only one program, the driver.
8. So I manually opened the device manager and uninstalled the display driver.
9. After, I reupdated the display driver and pointed it here: C:\AMD\. (This should be done after steps 6 to 7.)
10. I finally opened the Catalyst Control Center from the context menu at the desktop screen.

I do not know if this will work for you but I am just saying this worked for me...Hope this also works for many of you. Good luck!
