Hi there, Your Maximus XI Extreme seems to have power problems mainly affecting the LEDs and headphones. They shut down randomly, while the board lights stay on, the PSU and RAM indicators remain active. In Task Manager, the "LightingServices (32bit)" process spikes its power usage suddenly and then drops back once the lights turn off. It might be a faulty RGB fan causing this issue, but it doesn’t explain why the headphones stop working. Also, you’re on 64-bit despite the service name suggesting otherwise—could be a compatibility quirk or a misconfiguration. Let me know if you need further guidance!

Is there a lighting control app available? Aura isn't always reliable.

With ROG Armoury, I've got the aura enabled though I haven't activated it. There aren't any lighting apps installed at startup; I only access Armoury once everything is up and running. By default, the lights stay synced to Armoury's boot sequence.

Are they still the same team? Also, see if there are newer updates available.

It seems to be working well so far! Usually I would have finished by now, thank you very much!
