    First of all, I have ATK Package installed. (1.0.0007 version)
    Keyboard lights work.

    But they come on only after I have logged into the windows 7 x64. So every and only time I really need to see the keyboard and press my password on to G73jw I cant see my keyboard because there is no keyboard lights. Its starting to Phiss me off and driving me crazy :p

    Is there any way to make those friggin lights light before logging inside windows 7???

    I will give virtual cup of coffee to anyone who have solve on this one :D

    Yep - an actual hardware button to turn them on/off and adjust brightness with ANY OS would be just super...

    Camoon people!
    This cant be possible. There are these files in ATK package that control the keyboard lights. Is there a way to make them running as service or something to make the lights on before booting?
