G752VSK exhaust and light bar not working

[rogelio06]

Hi all, I've reading through the forum for days now, I had my keyboard not working and found an incredible solution here. But now I noticed my light bars (behind the screen) and exhaust led (behind battery) are not turning on.
I've tried several atk driver versions, gaming center versions, even armoury crate, none of them worked.
I've seen posts with the same issue, telling that letting the battery drain out solved their problem, already tried, no luck.
I don't know what else can I do, I'm pretty sure it's not a hardware problem.
I have the original eSupport folder, tried it too, no luck.

I hope someone here can help me, thanks in advance.

I'm glad to hear yours work fine, unfortunately, mine with same versions of drivers and gaming center, does'n work.
Can I ask you something? send me a screenshot of your registry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\ASUS\ ATK Package"
I'll attach mine just in case. I'm trying to resolve this issue myself and I could use some data to compare.

[jdfrench3]

As requested: By the way, my light bars and exhaust LED is Off now.

[jdfrench3]

What model G752VSK do you have? Please post copy of DXDIAG.exe.

You should not have ROG Armoury installed.

[rogelio06]

Isn't it strange how registry has HidLightBarOn set to 1, when really light bars are off? I think I'm looking into the wrong registry, by the way I've tried setting it to 0, changing the other registry that says "level", nothing worked either.
Here is my dxdiag, I've tried downgrading bios to 302, no light bar either.
I installed ROG Armoury following some forum advices, didn't work, unisntalled too.
I have the original SO, windows 10 home, in secondary ssd, I boot it sometimes to compare things like this we are talking about, light bar never turns on.
I dont't know what else can I do.

[jdfrench3]

You have a ROG G752VS (7th Gen Intel Core) laptop. the BIOS you should be using is 304.

I have ROG G752VS OC Edition (7th Gen Intel Core), my BIOS is 305.

Blame ASUS and their labeling idiots.

[rogelio06]

How can we be sure about that? The "Winflash" utility automatically downloads the 305 version for my laptop. I'm afraid installing 304 will bring me more trouble.

[rogelio06]

Ok I flashed it with 304, no luck, lights still off.
