    Some PC games have AlienFX profiles that light up the m14x (ie witcher 2, xcom)...is there a way I can turn off this option. I like to have the backlight the way I set it up without the game changing the lights during games.

    If you right-click on the alien head in the taskbar you can disable 3rd Party AlienFX Access.
