This sounds like a case of firmware corruption during an update (let this be a lesson to you on doing such things without a fully tested and stable OC) but fear not there is a way you can manually update the firmware for the LEDs to revive them.

1. Go to Program Files (x86) > ASRock Utility > ASRRGBLED > Bin

2. Look for the firmware file(s), they should be named something like nu51_2.05

3. Open Command Prompt as Admin

4. Type (or copy/paste); cd C:\Program Files (x86)\ASRock Utility\ASRRGBLED\Bin then press enter

5. Type; wICPFLASHADSB.exe /File=FilenameHere

6. Press Enter, the firmware for the LED controller will be reflashed

7. Viola, done.

Hi.

Downloaded the polychrome software for my x470 Taichi, executed the program and the rgb lights of my MB blinked some colors.

BSOD popped at my screen and the MOBO became solid blue RGB.

After that i had to clear CMOS for a clean boot(got error 4F), because something messed the XMP profile and i had to put it back to AUTO in the BIOS.

After the last boot the lights never get to turn on again.

The software says the lights are on but i can´t see any lights in MOBO. When i turn them off can´t get the switch to on again in the software.

Need some help, please.

Any thoughts of what is happening?

My rig is 2700x, x470 Taichi, Gigabyte gtx1080 and g. skill TridentZ f4-3200c16d-16gtzky
