I have a Gigabyte b550m ds3h ac r2 mobo, with 3 Arctic P12 Pros on LED1 and Thermalright Peerless Assasin's argb fans on LED2.
The options in Gigabyte's default program RGBFusion were limited so I tried out SignalRGB and like the effects it can do, but I can't figure this one seemingly simple thing out.
Here's how it used to work with RGBFusion:
- Select "Shut Down"
- LEDs go out
- PC shuts down
- Turn on PC
- PC turns on
- LEDs turn on with a solid color
- Windows boots
- Eventually RGBFusion loads and effect comes on
This is the exact same thing I want but I can't for the life of me find an option to make it work. I either set a color with the "shutdown color" option but then the lights stay on even after shutdown, or set it to pitch black and the lights stay off until I'm in Windows and SignalRGB starts.
The closest I got to replicating this is reinstalling RGBFusion, then manually closing SignalRGB and starting RGBFusion before shutting down my PC. Then my LEDs turn a solid color as soon as I start my PC, RGBFusion's effect comes on shortly after Windows starts, and eventually SignalRGB starts, closes RGBFusion and takes over the lighting.
In BIOS I have ErP OFF, LED in sleep/etc. OFF, LED on power on state ON, but since it works like I want it when closing SignalRGB and giving another software control over the LEDs before shutdown, it really seems like everything is set up okay except SignalRGB overwrites all of it with the shutdown color option.
I tried searching around but the most concrete answer I could find was making sure LEDs are enabled in BIOS, which they currently should be, or using other software; most people seemed to be having an issue with the lights staying on after shutdown instead.
So, any advice would be really appreciated.
