    In the AlienFX lighting effects software on the M17x is it possible to somehow get an option for white lighting? In some videos i watched about the M17x i could see an option for white lighting in AlienFX but on my M17x there doesn't seem to be an option for white lighting.

    My eyes in the corner just went red again after a reboot and now my FX dont work . This is without SP2 . Clearly something is wrong but i dont think its the hardware because if i restore again it will fix it im sure . Lame lame lame.

    Maybe its the overclocking thats corrupting a file is the only conclusion i can come to.

    I only notice that on startup while it initializes. When I had the original problem I never noticed it.

    Hahah i figured out the issue woot > When you play Prototype you have to kill certain HID devices in your device manager as it adds a bunch of them thus killing your frame rate litterally . So i just thought about what controls the keyboard ? DUH the HID so sure enough i went and enabled all of them again and Bam green eyes are back :D.

    Lol and to think i spent all those hours uninstalling and reinstalling because of it . Now i can restore my what was thought to be bad OS that i had made form scratch .
