    Hey guys, maybe one of you can help me.

    As you know, this notebook comes with 3 ROG buttons, mine are found in the top left side of the keyboard. I know the first one turn the keyboard lights on or off and requires o additional software to work, but what about the other two?

    What do they do and what software (from the asus ROG software list) I need to install in order for these two button to work (now they do nothing when pressed)?

    Thank you!

    the right one is for the "asus splendid video enhancement technology"
    you need to download the Splendid Utility in order to make this button work.

    about the middle one, I can't see the logo clearly but if its like in the g73jw so it's the twin turbo "overclocking" button.
    In order to make it work you need to install the "Power4Gear Hybrid Utility".

    hope I helped :)

    Thank you!

    The middle one allows to change power plans...useless.
    The right one needs a software update. The current version is Vista only :(
