Installed MSDK 2013 - lost Quicksync ability...

I just uninstalled MSDK 2013 R3 and installed MSDK 2013 on my Windows 7 box, and now I can no longer access Quicksync ... All flavors of Quicksync fail in MFXInit - even software. Verified with my own code, and DS decoders like LAVFilter.

Hardware ANY Quicksync is NOT available

Software Quicksync is not available

Could somone point out the obvious mistake I must be doing?

Can't seem to edit first post in thread: I meant to write  "I just uninstalled MSDK 2012 R3"

Problem solved: I had looked at the files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Media SDK, thought they were part of an old Media SDK, so I removed them (backed up). Re-installed the latest graphics driver, noticed they were back. So now I have Quicksync back. Sorry, my mistake, don't mess with files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Media SDK, they are not really "SDK" files, but part of the HD Graphics driver install.
