RGB LED Issues

Good luck with that mate,

I have not been able to get my RAM, graphics, cpu or LED strips working with the damn software. No matter what. Installed new windows,tried all firmware and software. All products have AsRock labelled compatible on the box.

The software gives errors on startup, wont save settings, wont work with third party (Razer) nothing changes. Its all a joke. Only thing it does successfully is change the motherboard lights. Which I can do in bios anyway.

Hi!
I have an Asrock B450m Pro4 motherboard and bought a cheap LED strip (addressable RGB, WS2812B, with 60 LED-s on the strip).
The ASRock Polychrome software works just fine (1.0.48, firmware v2.9), but on the ARGB strip (plugged in the ARGB header on the motherboard) works just like a normal RGB strip, all LED-s showing the same color at the same intensity at once. I can change the color in the software, but just for the whole strip, not for the individual LED-s. Should'nt i be able to control the individual LED-s in the strip? The same strip works with my friends Arduino controller just as intended, all LED-s addressed individually.
Also, the colors in the software are messed up, for example when i set it to blue, the strip changes to a light pink, the all red shows as an almost white, faint blue. The LED count in the software shows 67 instead of 60, when i set it to 66 the last LED turns off, by 65 the last two, and by 7, all of the LED-s are turned off.

I have:
- X370 Gaming K4 mobo
- bios v 5.30 with default bios settings
- Ryzen 1700X
- one RGB deepcool fan connected to 12vGRB cpu rgb header (not the amd usb header) and no other rgb device
- Windows 10 Pro, May 2019 update

- fresh install, pure stock drivers from Microsoft, except for Samsung NVME driver

- F-Stream Tuning utility ver:3.0.199
- ASRock RGB LED ver:1.0.41
- CPUID's cpu-z, hwmonitor, powermax
- hwinfo64
- AMD's Ryzen Master
- Samsung Magician

the RGB led utility cannot successfully run. Nothing appears. There is no change in the default breathing red led mode. In the task manager, I see the program start, then terminates after a couple of seconds.

I did not try the workaround others posted about using the programs's flash utility to flash the rgb chip since my issue is where the proram does not even start.

I am running latest polychrome and nu_2.08 on x470 board and it runs ok I cant controll header 2 at all and header 1 makes my EK vector always show blue no matter what i do.

How exactly you ran polychrome on your motherboard because i'm using the same board and i can only use asrock rgb led which is not exactly the same program. If I am right polychrome is not supported for my board but if I'm wrong and you know how to do it I will be glad if you help me and the others. Just to be known i tried your cmd commands and it won't work.
