I can change the colour of the cards no problem but the bridge won't change, I can turn the led off but that's it. I've also tried using LED Sync but that does not work either. I'm using Precision X1 v0.3.11.0 The Firmware on the cards is 49.49.76 Using windows 10 pro 64 Attached Image(s) #1 26 Replies Related Threads

Exit out of PX1 wait 1 minute and then start it back up and see if you can change it. SLI Must be enabled in the NVIDIA Control Panel. Change the Color the Click Apply and then Click Save.

It is green, I can set it to off but nothing else works. If I set it any colour its just green. #7

I have to start PX1 to set the Color Back. Associate Code: 9E88QK5L7811G3H #8

EKWB Vector and NVLink doesn’t fit? Found From EVGA NVlink is not the same size as Nvidia reference If is installed. post edited by bcavnaugh - 2019/05/02 09:50:13 Associate Code: 9E88QK5L7811G3H #12

The Hydro Copper LED control works fine with LED Sync. But PX1 crashes when I try to adjust the LEDs. The NVLink LEDs do not work under any condition. I suspect its because my cards are not EVGA. #15

Are you using PX1 or LED Sync? I have removed LED Sync and no longer install it. Also I do not have PX1 startup with the OS and just wait for a Desktop to start it up when needed. You may need to run PX1 as Run as administrator to work now with the Newer Divers and Security that has been added. But this is true "I suspect its because my cards are not EVGA."
