ArTiqR Posted April 28, 2016 Share Posted April 28, 2016 So after trying every, and I do mean EVERY possible thing, and still failing to install the CUE for my new K70 RGB, I've found the only way to install it is: Let it fail, force reboot.Copy the installation files from a working install, into install destination "C:\Program Files (x86)\Corsair\Corsair Utility Engine" (my Surface got this ... questionable software installed without any issues) And yeah it works now >.> Eh, I wish someone had written this and saved me hours of trial and error madness.. (Corsair please fix). Here is a download link for the files if you lack a second PC that magically can install this software. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigsRGBs Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Wow! YOU ROCK! Finally a fix! Is there any way to get Corsair to sticky this at the top of their fix list? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee Corsair James Posted August 9, 2016 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 9, 2016 This isn't addressing the problem of why it does this and doing it this way will also mean the drivers (audio and the corsair virtual input device drivers) may not install correctly. I'm glad it works as a temporary workaround but its more important to understand why this occurred. From what I gathered so far, it typically is a permissions issue within the registry that prevents the drivers from installing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been scouring for a solution, and now I can't download that guys files because its had too much traffic. I just posted a thread about this today because I couldn't find an answer, only to find this post from a month ago after the fact. A little disheartening to see there's no resolution.

htmlboss Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 I'm still having the same issue, and the download link has been disabled >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted October 31, 2016 Share Posted October 31, 2016 If you have a second PC, install CUE on it then retrieve the files from the driver folder and move it over to your computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue isn't related to CUE - its going to be system specific. Unless you can find a direct root cause as to what causes the conflict with CUE and others can reproduce, we can't fix it. If it is determined to be a system issue, then CUE can't be patched to fix it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalios Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 I have noticed quite a few people are having this issue. This is a simple fix which seems to work on multiple systems. .:::Simple FIX:::. Open Control PanelClick User AccountsClick User Accounts (again)Click Change User Account Control SettingsDrag slider to the bottom to turn off UAC.Click OkayLog off of your user profileLog back inInstall Corsair Engine UtilityENJOY!!! .:::Questions & Answers:::. Q: What does this fix do? A: Just turns off UAC to avoid permission issues while installing CUE. Q: Can I turn UAC back on afterwards? A: You sure can. Simply repeat steps 1-8 to turn UAC back on. (Note: On step 5 you will drag the slider to the 2nd notch thus putting it back at default.) Q: How many machines have you tested this with? A: This has worked on 7 different machines at the moment.

I can confirm that this did not solve my problem of freezing at Driver Install. Every release so far has frozen at driver install. The only thing that has worked has been the workaround mentioned in the first post...which is not ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maj.Kickas Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Try this it fixed my problem with loading ICUE software... I found a fix for my computer by removing the SATA cable from my optical drive, before you do this shut down your computer and then install the ICUE software... Hope this helps someone!
