The QuestionARGB headers experience a loss of functionality upon the initial boot.
The QuestionARGB headers experience a loss of functionality upon the initial boot.
I've never really experimented with ARGB settings, but I had extra money during my upgrade, so I decided to try it out. I purchased some high-end fans and a liquid cooler.
Everything was installed and I was working on fixing a few problems with OpenRGB when I had to restart. After rebooting, none of the LEDs linked to the ARGB headers lit up, though the RAM still functions. I could only control the RAM through the BIOS or OpenRGB, but the latter no longer recognizes the headers.
Eventually, I thought about reseating the motherboard power connector, which helped until the next day when I restarted again. It's been a few days now and I haven't noticed any other issues—just the lights won't turn on.
Mobo is an Asrock Phantom B550, fans are ThermalRight C-12-C, and I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.
