Toasted Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yes, it's one of those. But 3m is really long, i'd suggest you try find a smaller one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thenosbod Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 if you have a laptop you could try that mini USB B to Type A cable in it and see if it works on that! or another pc if you have got one will do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 If the H80i isn't detected in Device Manager with the mini B to Type A cable, its may be a faulty unit. I'd suggest you try other versions of the LINK software as they are all betas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted April 24, 2014 Share Posted April 24, 2014 I would still suggest you try other versions to avoid any downtime if the detection issue was only due to software as it was it was working fine before.

Toasted Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Don't worry. The Commander unit (Silver Box) is part of the Corsair LINK kit. You wrote "trying a commander firmware update" which was the reason i asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toasted Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 The commander firmware update (2.0.6) is only for the commander unit only. Unless you are referring to the Hydro Series firmware update, 1.0.7 is the latest and may help with the detection issue. If the software does not see the H80i, it won't update the firmware. It needs to see it before it can update the firmware. Install version 2.4.5110 and see if the H80i is detected. If it is, you can update the firmware to 1.0.7. Also check if the H80i is detected in Windows correctly. There should be a device named "Integrated USB Bridge" under Device and Printers (Control Panel) with no errors.
