Backlight Issues

Recommended Posts

I have a corsair k55, sometimes my backlighting works and sometimes it doesnt. Ive already tried all basic steps; reflashing a firmware given by corsair support, fn and f4 holding escape and rebooting keyboard. I have done all, i know the lights arent dead. Anyone know of a permanent fix?

older post

try more that one USB port

some PCs can not do over 100MA on 1 uSB port.

so backlighting can fail. (older PCs are weak)

if power is the issue, the USB port will do that windows sound for disconnect..

you can also cure this with 2 tricks.

the 2 USB to 1 cable trick doubling current. (sold in fleabay)

or buy a $10 powered hub, that is and active powered hub with true 500MA ports.

this later fix is super good, and allows lots of things to connect, like gaming pads and such.

Good luck to all here !
