Anyone have the old modified HCONTROL.exe?

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I have an Asus M6N that I've recently started using again. Sure it's a little underpowered according to today's standards but it'll surf the net and play videos just fine.

Anyway, I had to update the Intel wireless drivers to make them compatible with the security settings on the wireless router but that made it so that HControl.exe was no longer working. It will crash on start up.

I did a little reading and some people claimed to have success with a modified version of hcontrol. However, the website this modified version was originally downloaded from is no longer in use it seems. (http://power4gear.bk-kicks.com/hcontrol.htm)

Does anyone have this old modified version of hcontrol that they could give me?

Or is there another program I can use to make the hotkeys functional again? I do not even care if the Power4Gear program doesn't work properly because there are plenty of replacement options for that program and I don't even change the power settings very often anyway.

Thanks!

Just for the sake of history:

I have succeded to make the controls working under Windows 7 on my A3L Asus, bt suppose it will work without problems on an M6N too.
You can download the ATK utility for Win7 from http://support.asus.com for the G51VX notebook.

The ATK driver, and the ATKOSD2 should be enough to download, though I did not really like the fancy graphics of the ATKOSD2 (it produces skips and slowdowns during overlay played films), so I am using it with the old and simple ATKOSD for XP, downloaded from the support page for my notebook. This 'hybrid' setup seems to satisfy my needs, I was missing the volume up/down the most...
Good luck!
