I tried to install the Win10 version of ASUS Splendid Video Enhancement Technology v3110001 from http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/Apps_for_Win10/Splendid/Splendid_Win10_64_VER3110001.zip but it's not able to install, anyone knows how to fix this?
OK,
I see now, windows 7 old Spledid possible. Ok. Try this, Compare my Splendid to your version of spledid, and try to install MY 8.0/8.1 version onto your machine.
Anything windows-8 is win-7 compatible, no differance in win-8 except the UI changes as far as OS system goes, rest is just painted over windows-7.
Known Upgrade issues from old win-7/8 updates that MUST be removed that are known to prevent applications from installing properly found here.
Bah, i thought i had a quick link to the information about which ones to unistall, but i couldnt find it. Microsoft posted a list of updates that were supposed to be uninstalled before the upgrade happened, you may want to try finding that info, IF you havnt done a Full-Reset, delete Everything Kepp Nothing type reset yet.
If you already have done a Full-Reset Keep nothing type reset, don't worry about it 😉
Asus is now shipping models with win-10 pre-installed so take a look for X555LE, i know for a fact it has the updated Splendid version, but mine should work/update when the win-10 version is applied.
To add some info i have now later had my experience with the new AMD driver sets can confirm that if the display drivers arn't working splendid will send a message about " Spledid can not open in this resolution" immediatly recognized my video driver install and worked. You Nvidia i think and there drivers are different and your problem could be a actual win-10 video driver problem preventing splendid from working. Me now knowing this would WANT splendid to at least work as intended before deciding on removing it/ not using it. Thats just My2Cents.
Link to latest news, click anyone of these models from ROG news feed, i checked they these will be NVidia models lineup, the AMD models havnt shipped with win-10 yet.
Your going to want these models driver-support for windows-8 and look through the utilites for them.

Thanks for your input as usual. Anyways, I tried your version which is 3.02.0001 while my installed version is 1.02.0040. The Win10 upgrade version is 3.11.0001. When I tried to run the setup.exe as admin over the 1.02.0040, 3.02.0001 told me that I need to uninstall the older version first and then exited so I uninstalled 1.02.0040 and when I ran 3.02.0001 this time around, it came up with a similar error:
From what I can tell, the problem has to do with data\ColorTable folder...
In 1.02.0040:
In 3.02.0001:
In 3.11.0001:
All the files with the exception of the 5 *.acf files in 1.02.0040 exists in 3.11.0001 with identical file sizes and date/timestamps. I even tried to add the 5 *.acf files to 3.11.0001 with the same results of the installer aborting because the .icm files are missing.
The only reason I am trying the Windows 10 upgrade of Splendid is because when one goes to the G74SX support page, it actually doesn't mention the upgrade as this is what it says:
https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1013143/
So perhaps the upgrade just doesn't support the G74SX-3DE or G74SX in general.
However, when one goes here:
http://www.asus.com/event/2015/osupgrade/upgrade.html#ap-driver
So for all I know, perhaps some models of older notebooks are not supported by the Splendid 3.11.0001 upgrade. I'm not sure how to test the Vivid function except inside of Splendid, when vivid is chosen, the colors are more bright. This is what the current installed 1.02.0040 looks like:
I had a hard enough time finding 3.11.0001 as someone on another thread I started pointed me to the location of the download. Unless there is a newer version available. It seems all of the builds are basically the following directory structure:
Main Directory has only setup.exe
Data subdirectory has 409.msi and a ColorTable subdirectory. If the problem is not in the ColorTable subdirectory, it's most likely in the 409.msi file.
