    My AlienFX lighting seems to be broken...

    It is stuck on the color yellow, and will NOT let me change to any other color.

    I tried getting the iTunes media plugin for keyboard lightshow to work, so this is probably a result of that.

    I've tried system restore and it did nothing, please help me.

    Hi Syatek, have a look at this article first: AlienFX.
    It should be solved that easy, if it is not solved, I will lean more to a Hardware failure, please keep us updated

    *Could you also uninstall the plugin you used? just for troubleshooting matters :cool:
