Rustilol Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Hi guys Just made this account to share what I did to make windows detect my h80i once again after updating windows to 8.1 I did what was recommended first but it did not help. (Uninstall, delete local files, restart, reinstall, restart open) I did this many times but Link did not detect my h80i, there were no colours and the fans just went at slow speed no matter the load/temp. Do this at your own risk but it worked for me. I opened my case WHILE THE SYSTEM WAS RUNNING and unplugged the mini USB which plugs into he h80i. I then plugged it back in and windows said "new hardware detected, restart system" or something. I then restarted it and boom, link now showed my h80i. It suggested firmware update so did that, restarted and I can control it as I could before windows 8.1. I hope this helps you guys, just do it at your own risk and don't try if you think you will touch the mobo, gpu etc. X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
