    Hi all;


    I have a area 51 m17x. I bought this from someone else recently and the alienFX was only flashing green so after I freshly installed Windows Vista 32bit, I manually installed the m17x ATK hotkey drivers on Alienwares support website along with Command Center 1.035 I believe it is.

    Well after running CC it turned off my keyboard completely and only left on the touchpad lights + touchpad light. So I then ran AlienFX tester where it succesfully was able to turn ALL my lights back on to red only though. It failed on its test to run my colors to anything other then red.

    I am now stuck on red, I cannot change it to any other color through CC and the FXtester doesnt highlight any options anymore. What to do ?! :confused: Major rep to anyone who knows how to solve this problem.
