CCC won't open in windows 8.1

Wodgy · 31 Oct 2014 at 13:01

I've just finished installing my O/S , drivers etc on my new SSD.
I installed cata 14.9.2 initially , tried opening CCC but it will not open. There is no error message.
So I installed 14.9.1 instead and same thing occurs.
During installation of CCC I had a message about "warnings occurred during installation" and a view log. But ofcourse, this was just like reading Chinese.
This happened before and I was told my AMDMatt to uninstall drivers, run ddu in safe mode etc. I ran ddu only and it worked.
However, If I were to uninstall drivers using CCC in control panel , program files. Will this uninstall my Chipset drivers etc for my mobo?
Sorry if my explanation is not clear.
Regards.

I occasionally get the warnings occurred thing. I found that rebooting and reinstalling the drivers straight over the previous installation sorts it out.

Try it and see what happens.

Shall i redownload 14.9.2 from the amd site or just run the setup again from the amd folders on my ssd?
regards.

Just use the one you already have.

Do you have the latest Net. Framework updates installed ??

I had issues where the ccc refused to install. cant remember what fixed it but when i was having problems i found installing it manually from the c:amd folder did the job.

what graphics card are you using? - seen several threads across the web mentioning issues with the CCC on 14.9/14.9.1/14.9.2, mainly relating to cards that don't support Mantle.

Ive got an xfx r9 280 dd.

It sounds like a runtime issue.. The software needed to run CCC .net is missing on your system.

Any idea on how to resolve this?
also the fact that i installed ccc before doing all the windows updates, would this make a difference?

Have you tried doing anything yet? Assuming you're at home?

I not sure tbh. I would first head over to Microsoft downloads and see if you have all the .Net work files 3.0 3.0 4.0 4.5

This is what CCC uses.

meldarthx · 31 Oct 2014 at 14:06

look for .net install files; 4.5 usually will do it; if you don't have .net installed Windows won't magically update it through windows update; you need to install it first.

Wodgy · 31 Oct 2014 at 14:12

Im pretty sure all the .net were in the 55 windows updates i had to install.
ill try your suggestions shortly.
just at home with a baby at the moment.
P.S. When i just ran ddu before qnd reinstalled 14.9.1 it worked. This was a while ago from what amdmatt suggested but with this method would i have to reinstall mobo chipset drivers etc?
regards.

try removing all the c++ redistributes as well before you reinstall the drivers.

Shall I uninstall through CCC install manager? But like I said, will I have to reinstall mobo chipset/usb etc if I do that?
And just to mention. The gaming evolved app works fine incase that makes a difference.

This is the log warnings I get if it means anything to anyone:-

Edit:- just removing the log.

Uncle Petey · 31 Oct 2014 at 14:42

Mate, just try the first and easiest solution to start with. Install them straight over.
If that doesn't work, then go nuts with other stuff

Oh, you reckon you could put that log in a spoiler tag?
