  1. UniEizMan - you should not have to re-order the fans. Unless you are seeing a problem with one specific fan, the problem should be the same for all fans connected to the hub. If that is indeed what you are seeing, your problem may be different than what I am talking about. Good luck!
  2. I have an 150i, but I don't think that will make much of a difference. What the folks at Corsair have to figure out is what's triggering the problem. It seems to me that it is some kind of activity or signal on the USB bus that is 'tripping' the Corsair driver, causing it to fail. Just this morning I re-started the system and BANG! It happened again. Not too big a deal since I (now) know what to do, but this kit cost too much money (way over half of it to Corsair) to be failing on a stupid driver. Unfortunately, it's been like this for years with Corsair -- great hardware, crap software. Since I rather suspect they farm out the code work, I think they need to find better contractors to figure it out. If it's all in-house, then heads need to roll.
  3. Like many others, I too have had problems with my beautiful RGB fans (6 LL120s) flashing and blinking for no apparent reason. I immediately realized it couldn't be a hardware issue (6 fans suddenly flashing at the same time? I don't think so), so I started looking at the software chain. If you look at the Device Manager under Universal Serial Bus controllers, you will see an item called 'Corsair USBXp Driver' (see attached image). Highlight it and select 'Uninstall Driver' either from the toolbar, or right-click (context) menu. Your lights should go out at this point. Right-click on the USB Controllers item (actually any item will work) and select 'Scan for hardware changes'. This will re-install the driver, and you will notice your fan lighting is now working again! Hope this helps folks who have been frustrated with this problem. I rather suspect a number of problems with RGB products are related to this driver. Now let's see it Corsair can figure out how to fix it! Terry
