blurryphoenix Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I was messing around and wanted my profile to change when the screensaver starts up. However, when you go and select "Link Profile to Program" it only looks for .exe files (all screensaver files are .scr). However, if you type in (instead of selecting) "C:\Windows\System32\{INSERT SCREENSAVER FILE}", it will trigger when the screensaver loads. Mine currently triggers on "C:\Windows\System32\ribbons.scr". [ame] [/ame] However, my question for anyone is is there a way that the keyboard doesn't flip to the default red with pulsing WASD/Arrow keys when the computer goes to sleep? Could it be because it's not loaded to the keyboard? EDIT: After changing my screensaver to go on at 1 minute, I realized that doesn't trigger it. It just stays with my default settings. However, it does still trigger when I preview it via the Control Panel. Does anyone know if these reference different files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demon1160 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 For your question, Set a different profile to Default the Red one is currently your default so change it to whatever you want. now on that note when your computer goes to sleep the animation freezes wherever its at in till you wake up your computer i believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epyon_761 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Hey I have a question about this. I have my screensaver as my photos which is linked to my wallpapers that is in my external under My Briefcase. So does anyone know the directory path that I would have to link to the profile to try and get this to work? Oh wait never mind I got it to work I was just looking for the wrong file name and forgot to switch it back to Automatic Profile Switching Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blurryphoenix Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 Has anyone figured this out yet? The fact that it triggers on previewing the screensaver makes me think I'm on the right track, but I still haven't figured out how to get it to trigger when it actually goes to screensaver after the given time (for me, 3 minutes).

gryf Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 So after the last firmware update this trick to get the screensaver to work, no longer works on my K70. It works fine with the programs I have tested but scr files don't seem to work anymore. Anyone have a workaround or is it Corsair we need to have fix it?

Innercitydk Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I have tried everything to get it to switch profile when the screensaver kicks in without any luck. I really hope that this is possible and that Corsair will make a firmware update that enables this functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
