rossjohnb Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Hi, just unboxed and the k70 rgb, and installed the utility. The utility is detecting a k95 not a k70 and will only allow the k95 firmware update not the k 70. What do i do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeklorz Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Try downloading the Corsair K70 RGB software instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossjohnb Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 Yeah made no difference. Even windows installed the device as a k95 on the drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rirdeg Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Got the same issue as OP. Tried downloading K70 firmware by editing the download link but the Corsair software won't even let you install it. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossjohnb Posted September 27, 2014 Author Share Posted September 27, 2014 Yes I have done that too, however the keyboard as plug n play is recognized as a k95, it does on a second machine too. I don't think it looks like a problem with the utility program, I think it is the keyboard itself. I have emailed Corsair, awaiting reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plzt Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I reckon they have flashed the base firmware wrong or something. Mine works fine, lights up fine, but this issue means I can't do more. Ive sent Corsair LeChuck a PM as he seemed to know something regarding and hope we get an answer soon, definitely want to play with this board ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
