Thank you sooooo much! I had done research for hours but couldn’t find anything to fix the issue, so I had kind of given up on it for a couple of months. Then, by chance, decided to research again how to fix my issue and found your video. And it worked! Thank you so very much, you’re the best!

I'm an idiot, I've been looking for a reason all day, it turned out that my friend pressed the fn + "dimming" keyboard shortcut (in the hope that this button is responsible for the brightness of the screen) and as a result, I only now realized that it wasn't a screen at all! A stone from the soul, but thanks anyway for a very useful video for many, I imagine what it was like for you to see your favorite keyboard in colors again))

[@ParadiseBizz]

You're not the only one. Many users me included find it confusing to have to press FN and the MINUS key to brighten the lights, while PLUS is for dimming. I'm sure it was invented on April fools day. Anyway, I am glad you have your colors back

[@ParadiseBizz]

Glad it helped. Unfortunately there is no fix for the wrong colors, not even if you're resetting the entire Laptop - something the MSI support easily will suggest. No, you would actually purchase and replace the entire keyboard to fix that. And who knows how long it will last until it illuminates again in the wrong colors.

[@ParadiseBizz]

I have the same problem and I contacted the customer service about that. The only "solution" is to buy and to install a new keyboard. But no one knows how long this will last until the colors switch to something else. So unfortunately there is not a real solution and MSI is not helpful at all.

[@vtppopogian9284]

Hello I hope you can answer my question since I have contacted msi support and they only basically tell me to get the laptop to them. The problem that I have is like the rgb light are like kinda of bug and the light of only on some key turn on even if I disable the rgb function. Even restarting the pc still the same only those keys are on I have reinstalled everything even update the bios. Please help me I can’t even sleep even thinking about it

[@ParadiseBizz]

The unpleasant truth is that those keys go bad after a short time and they are changing colors in a way they're not supposed to. Nothing helps, except for replacing the entire keyboard. Nut then you'd start all over and a few month down the road you would have the same issue. The good news is that the majority of the keys keep illuminating in the correct colors, and with the right color modus you won't notice the failing keys too much.

Not sure if anyone else has had this issue but I did on my MSI GP75. It would start but get stuck loading. I uninstalled the program and went to steel series website and downloaded the newest version and installed that and stopped windows update from updating it. Fixed the issue and haven't had any since. I'm guessing something's wrong with 'windows update' version of the program. This may or may not help you but it's definitely worth a shot.

[@ParadiseBizz]

I know Windows updates don't go along with MSI applications. I had a similar problem with the Dragon Center after a Windows update. It would simply not load, so I had to restore my Windows to an older restore point and reinstall the Dragon Center.

I have the same problem with you. Just like what you say in the last part of the video, some key light of my msi couldn't work in a right way. But I just fix it two month ago, and the problem never apper until now. Before I fix it, almost about half keys wrong, and after I fixed, it just 3 keys couldn't show green light. The method I used to fix my laptop is to change the keyboard. I bought a new msi laptop keyboard online and then exchenge the initial one. The reason why some lights couldn't work in a right way I think is I dropped water on my laptop by accident. The water erode some electronic component. I hop this can help you to get the light on again. And it is hard to exchange because there are no course teach change keyboard on YT. If you have some questions, maybe I can give you some advices.

I like the brand but next time I'll opt for a different one.

Hey thanks for the vid, was helpful. I have a GP76 Leopard and here's what ended up working for me, though I'd suggest it only if the steps in the vid don't work as it removes the SS keyboard driver temporarily: Uninstalled the PS/2 keyboard AND the driver when prompted. After restart SSE said keyboard was not connected. Went back to devices, right clicked new PS2 keyboard windows auto installed and hit update driver. It said it was up to date, however I then tried the "search for updated drivers on Windows Update" option and it found a newer PS/2 specific for steel series, did a restart for windows to update to that and it finally worked. Back to disco keys! 🪩

I have an msi ge63 raider rgb rtx2080 When i first got windows (factory reset) the program worked properly, a couple of days later the steelseries said "not connected" on the msi per key rgb, although i also have mystic light and it works perfectly fine. I later tried uninstalling the driver, updating, installing older versions of steelseries, and doing combinations with these options. None of them worked and even worse, steelseries doesn't even show the "msi per key rgb keyboard" option. I don't know what to do and even though i am stuck with the best preset "disco" and have full control over the intensity of the lighting, i am still feeling out on the experimentation and customization that comes with the program. Do you know what to do? What if i simply applied the folder and files that comes with the msi per key rgb keyboard (although i couldn't find anyone who has shared them)? Thanks

First of all with the FN key down you can press the key-light buttons (on my laptop that is + and -) to brighten or to dim the LED's to zero. Next try to reset the keyboard controller, Turn off the notebook, Disconnect the AC Adapter, and press & hold the power button for exactly 15 seconds to trigger a EC Reset, after this, reconnect the power cord and turn the unit normally, the unit should power cycle several times for a minute.

i have asus tuf a15 can i use this program to customize my keyboard ??

[@ParadiseBizz]

I think it works only if you have a SteelSeries keyboard built into your Laptop. You can try, the download is free. If it doesn't work you uninstalled it again.

[@Kuroiiyami]

Hi I was wondering if you can help me. I have an msi gs76 and my keyboard rgb recently stopped working I tried this method and it didn’t work it’s says device isn’t working properly. Anyway you can help me fix it? None of my keys light up not even the fn keys.

[@ParadiseBizz]

Sometimes it is a s simple as turning on the lights. Try to press FN and the MINUS key multiple times. Let me know if this works

[@Kuroiiyami]

@@ParadiseBizz yeah I’ve tried that already and they don’t turn on at all, I’ve tried uninstalling steel series engine and it worked for a while but the lights were so dim you couldn’t really see the light in the keys

[@ParadiseBizz]

@@Kuroiiyami You can bring them up by pressing FN and MINUS multiple times

[@Javier_SA]

Good explanation, but i still have a question, Do you kow why the LEDs dont glow with the correct color?

[@ParadiseBizz]

I think the Steel Series Engine delivers the wrong Voltage to some of the LED's, because some of them are illuminating, when all LED's are supposed to be black. So something supplies them with additional power, which causes a permanent color switch

[@Javier_SA]

@@ParadiseBizzthanks for the answer, i thought it was a kind of hardware problem.

[@ParadiseBizz]

@@Javier_SA It also could be. But then again: why are some key illuminating when they're supposed to be black? I think they are getting a certain voltage, other than it is supposed to be

[@Javier_SA]

@@ParadiseBizz I agree with you, although to be sure a send a message to msi support and they say i should try updating SteelSeries Engine 3 and if the problem persists i must send them the "system information exported from the help desk (download from Microsoft Store)." So im working on that.

[@ParadiseBizz]

@@Javier_SA Best of luck, keep me posted

[@rachaelakerr]

Does this not work for windows 11? Mine keeps going back to red after i power on and i have to open steelseries for it to change

[@ParadiseBizz]

Unfortunately this is a fix only for Windows 10. I disabled all Windows updates, so I don't know what to do in Win11.

​@@ParadiseBizz I have msi alpha 15. My caps lock and num indicator on keyboard is not working after an automatic windows update. I tried toggling on and off on screen keyboard and toggle keys. Can you help me ? Btw I subbed.

[@ParadiseBizz]

@@legendaryhero-kr5pq Thanks for the sub. First thing you should try to do is to go to Windows Update, then VIEW UPDATE HISTORY and the UNINSTALL UPDATES. Try this first. If this does not help type RESTORE in your Search Bar and click on CREATE A RESTORE POINT. On the new popup window you click on SYSTEM RESTORE. Now select CHOSE A DIFFERENT RESTORE POINT and select one that dates back to the day everything was functioning normal

[@legendaryhero-kr5pq]

@@ParadiseBizz Yes bro I uninstalled the updates and then after a few minutes my laptop froze. It's not responding to anything. I can't even move mouse or press any keys. Then I force shutdown by pressing power button long enough for it to shutdown. After shutdown laptop boot up by updating and then my caps lock num lock indicators are working fine.

What a nightmare. I'm glad it's working now

[@DevilbyMoonlight]

mine has a few of the key only illuminating Red and blue it seems as if the green component has failed... the software works fine but the keyboard leds themselves have failed in my case.

[@ParadiseBizz]

Same here, it got worse over time. Very sad, on such an expensive laptop. And the MSI customer service is not helpful.

[@RagdoII]

My MSI Dragonforce is telling me that my steelseries engine 3 is only using 2.2.0.0 where as 3.19.0 is the online version? I've done the Steelseries check and I've tried yours and to no luck, my laptop lights are still not working :( This only happened after I my laptop updated to windows 11 on an auto update and I didn't care or have it set to a factory reset stage...hard bummer

[@RagdoII]

strangely the power button illuminates though

[@ParadiseBizz]

My LED's became faulty after a Windows 10 update :(

[@ParadiseBizz]

That's only one tiny LED, bi-color - orange and white

[@blckmtbd]

My computer was bought second hand without the rbg driver installed, so the lights wont turn on. Does anyone know where i could get it?

[@ParadiseBizz]

try here: us.msi.com/support/download/nb

[@zarnakandadam3325]

Even your keyboard lighting has a green light bug, same as me, keyboard light is supposed to be black (turn off), but I don't know why still on (dim light)

[@ParadiseBizz]

The color changes are made by adressing a certain current to the LED's. The reason why that they are illuminating in the wrong color might be that something inside the machine is addressing the wrong voltage to the LED's and when they are supposed to be dark, there might be still some current. I don't know if it is a failure of the steelseries app or what is responsible for that.

[@faali4874]

@@ParadiseBizzMay be it’s caused by mystic light

i am fine until the part where i have to reboot steel series, theres no option for that and also when I want to update my diver in steel series there is no option any advice?

download the new steel series. Then delete the app from your laptop. Next delete the keyboard in the DEVICE MANAGER. Reboot the laptop. Next install the newly downloaded version of SteelSeries. Reboot the laptop again. Now you should be able to get in the app to change colors

Why does some of your letter on your keyboard is different colour like Y.H and N And do you know how to fix that

Your different story of LED's not lighting properly after 1 year of use is my main concern. Is there any fix to that?

[@ParadiseBizz]

Unfortunately there is not much help coming from the MSI support team. Their advice to reset the entire laptop does not help. It could be a mechanical issue, which would mean you'd need to replace the entire keyboard to fix that.

Using the mousepad or a mouse go to SETTINGS >> DEVICES >> STEELSERIES KEYBOARD >> REMOVE DEVICE and restart your laptop. This should bring it right back. Let me know if this works. If not, there is another approach with an external keyboard.
