    Hello fellow Alienware users.

    Im trying to get the iTunes lightshow working on my laptop.
    I've been following a guide from this website.

    I initially didn't have the media plugin folder, but luckily someone put up a download for it. So I downloaded that, and got everything working.

    My iTunes now has the visaulizer option for AlienFX.

    Problem is, the default settings are pretty bad.
    From the video I watched I should be able to press Options... in iTunes and it would open up an AlienFX like thing to adjust what parts of the keyboard light up when part of the music goes to x Hz. (bass, treble, vocals, etc).

    When I press options however, it says "AlienFxMediaPlugin not installed" and does not open. Why? How do I fix this?

    Also, my "AlienFX Controller" seems to be broken. It wont open when I try to. But AlienFX Editor and Control Panel do work.

    Thanks
