Hello! So I just built my wife a little gaming computer and silly me decided to be cool and get RBG components for it.

The build for reference:
MOBO - ASRock Fata1ty AB350
CPU - Ryzen 3 3200G
RAM - Team T-Force RBG Series 16GB (2 x 8bg)
Fans - Deep Cool RBG Fans

So the issue here is..I have my RBG fans plugged into the RBG port on the MOBO. I downloaded the ASRock RBG software so I can control everything thinking that you could control the RAM RBG as well..but that is not the case apparently. So to get the RAM RBG working I needed to download the ASUS Aura Sync software..cool whatever. BUT once I download this software my ASRRBGLED software WILL not open. I can watch it appear for a second in my task manager and then disappear like it's crashing or something. If i uninstall the ASUS software and try to open the ASRRBGLED software..then it opens fine.

Someone please help me fix this issues so I can get all my pretty lights in Sync :)

Thanks

Nope, ASUS software works and controls the RAM RGB.

The issue is when ASUS RBG software is installed the ASrock RBG software won't open. That shouldn't have anything to do with my MOBO. I can still control the RBG fans in the ASrock BIOS no problem. But that's not convenient..

Was the first thing I tried. That's a no ghost rider.

I challenge you..if you have ASRocks RBG software, to go download ASUS's RBG software and see how your ASRock software behaves.

Reading comprehension fail on my part .. my apologies .. what version of ASRock's RGB software are you using? Have you tried their Beta version dated 2-6-20?

You?�re running into a very common RGB ecosystem conflict.

The main issue here is that ASUS Aura Sync and ASRock?�s Polychrome (ASRRBGLED) both try to access low-level RGB controllers through the motherboard?�s SMBus. Since your board is the ASRock Fatal1ty AB350, it isn?�t designed to work with Aura Sync at all ??and when Aura installs its lighting services, it can block or override ASRock?�s RGB service.

That?�s why:

ASRRBGLED opens normally when Aura isn?�t installed

As soon as Aura installs its background services, ASRRBGLED crashes or closes instantly

Aura isn?�t just a ?�visual??app ??it installs system services that run at startup and hook into RGB hardware.

Why your RAM needs Aura

Some RGB RAM kits (including certain Team T-Force models) use an Aura-compatible lighting controller even on non-ASUS boards. That?�s why the RAM only responds to Aura ??but the motherboard RGB header is strictly ASRock-controlled.

What you can do

Option 1 (Recommended): Pick one ecosystem
On an ASRock board, your most stable setup is:

Use ASRock Polychrome / ASRRBGLED

Let the RAM run its default lighting mode

Avoid installing Aura completely
