    Hello All,

    I've got an Asus zephyrus S17 with the rtx2070 Super for a week now, and since day one the Logo and side Leds do not work. They only work on boot, but after boot they stop working. So it seems software related.
    I've read that some users got this working/not with different Bios. I'm searching for Bios 307, since 306 and 305 wont work.
    If I fail to find it I will retun the laptop, but it feels silly to return just because of that...

    Any ideas?

    This one is relatively easy. They moved the location of the option.

    In Armory Crate. On the left side. Device > System. Then Lighting > Settings. Then check that "Laptop light zones" is checked. After that it has to be plugged in for the lights to function.
