YAY!
Anyway, I installed the Surface Pro 2 Firmware Update yesterday, and ever since then I've not been able to access the Intel HD graphics control panel. I had a specific set-up for my screen that was only accessible through the control panel. After the firmware update my screen settings were reverted to the original pro settings and I can't get my old settings back again because I can't access the Intel control panel.
I've tried everything. I went on Google and apparently no one has had this problem. I go to the little task icon window and the Intel-control panel icon is gone (it was there before). I tried searching for the control panel in my system but every time I click on Intel HD Graphics in the search options it just shows the loading swirl for a second, goes away, and nothing happens. I tried updating my driver but it says up-to-date.
When I first got the pro 2 I couldn't' access the panel then, either, but a firmware update back at the beginning of the year added it in. It seems this new one has removed that feature again. This recent firmware update apparently "improves" visual stability of the HD graphics family, so it may be that it also inadvertently removed the control panel access by accident (or some other nebulous reason). If that is the case then I really hope the next update adds it back in.
I'm not sure what else to do here now.
Has this occurred for anyone else? Is there a fix I've not found yet?
Thank you
