x52 owners....

[Drew]

is there some way to 'turn it off' ??

ie, power it down or something, so that its not all glowing lol, without unplugging the usb cable?

i know i can go into the control panel and turning down the brightness of the led and mfd everytime im done using it, but jusr wondered if
there was a different way?

didnt see nothing in the manual?

cheers

I don't know about the X52. but I own a X45, and I haven't found a way to turn it "off" without unplugging the USB, but it's not a problem for me, I
got the USB cable just next to the keyboard, along with the X45 plug

See that little icon in the traybar there? That green one? right click on that, select Control Panel, once in there select the LED tab and turn
the light off

[Drew]

ah yeah, didnt know i could get to control panel that way, thats easier, instead of going to start control panel, game controllers, etc

cheers

Those lights bothered me when I had the X52. Glad you got it taken care of.

ok i have a problem

all works great. If i need to reboot, or switch off pc, when i start it up, the mfd does not work no more (it lights up but has no writing on it)
and the only way i can get the writing back on it is install the drivers again i dont want to reinstall them everytime i reboot

[Drew]

grrrr - updated drivers, MFD now works, but when i try to put a profile in, pc reboots


edit - yet more drivers, and im up and running at least

I thaught if you go to settings on fs,go to controls and select disable joystick should do it

One reason why you should stick with the older and more reliable X45! I don't remember the exact problems I had with the X52, but I
know there was a reason I went back to the X45!!!
