    So i just installed Windows 7 on my Area-51 m17x and reinstalled everything in the proper order to make sure my lighting doesnt break. when installing the command center it asked what system i had and i accidentally selected m17x instead of the area-51 m17x. everything in the command center seems to work except for the FX since the program thinks i have the newer chassis and 3 location lighting for the keyboard.
    I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the command center but it never asked me the second time what system i had. Is there something special I can do to make sure it knows i have a different system then what it thinks?

    The lights all still work as when i restart into my old vista installation everything still works fine.

    I tried to see if this was an issue someone else had but the other command center posts didnt seem to match mine. Also searching on the general internet seems to give thousands of non helpful results so im crossing my fingers someone might have noticed this before.
