My Games Have Been Lagging and I think it I because of some settings in my AMD control center. The problem is all my settings disappeared all I have is power and performance. There is no gaming option or anything. PLEASE HELP!
 
Solution
can you try to run it as administrator and try to see if it is enabled in your fire wall. if both of those dont work disable anti virus(not while on internet) try to run ccc and see if your av is blocking.

I did not recently buy a new graphics card and upgrading my drivers did not do anything to the amd control center

did you use ccleaner or driver fusion to uninstall ccc before the update, it might have detected the ccc and not reinstalled it, so you will need to uninstall ccc with one of the programs then go to amds website to download again

I Can't find ccc on ccleaner I go to tools then uninstall but I can't find it. Also after I updated (or tried) my drivers it became really laggy

I used that second link to uninstall my drivers and then I installed them again, I will tell you the results in the morning. One last thing how do I get to the amd control center. when I right click it no longer gives me the option.

it should download with the graphic drivers for your card

try to do a window search for catalyst, or type msconfig in window search run it and go to start up programs.....if it isnt in either of those try to run driver sweeper to see if it is installed (dont uninstall) if for some reason it didnt download and your sure it is not on your computer go here to down load(at bottom of page)
