Try uninstalling the front base drivers, you may need to go to the motherboard site and update the OC panel firmware

Wow thanks! You Sir are a life saver!! I just did that and everything works great. You saved me from a lot of hassle by taking this to the re-seller.

Would you mind sharing how you resolved this issue? I am having the same problem. I uninstalled the Front Base Drivers from Programs and Features in Control Panel (I was unable to locate a device in the device manager using front base drivers to uninstall) as well as ROG connect plus. I restarted and installed the latest ROC connect plus and restarted once more... The OC Panel is still blank as you described above. I may need more detail concerning the uninstall of the Front Base drivers and where exactly to find the "OC Panel firmware" mentioned here.

Thanks!

Thanks this helped me... Front thing vs panel very confusing. But no longer black LCD display on the OC Panel 🙂

hello, I recently built my first PC I am using the ASUS Rampage V extreme/U3.1 Motherboard, I installed my OC panel and plugged it in and it was working fine until I went to ASUS's website and went into the driver section for Windows 10 64Bit, I went to the utility section and downloaded all the drivers there, as with the OP of this thread stated I think when I updated the front base driver now my OC Panel does not work any more. so i went into the bios and removed windows 10 and reinstalled it, I thought that would work but it did. I cant seem to get it to work again, it is dimly lit up but you can not read it.
so I went back into the Drivers and tools section and instead of picking a windows I chose other like some one here recommended and saw the Firmware for Windows 10 for the OC panel, somehow I managed to associate the file with internet explorer and that would not open it, I could not figure out how to change it back to what ever default opens files so I once again removed windows 10 from my new system, I got it all back up and running and went back to where the OC panel firmware was to re download it and it was no longer there. , and my OC panel still does not work...... at this point I do not know what to do, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks , mike

Hello, I too am having trouble with this, I went to the link that Menthol had posted to this thread, I downloaded the Firmware update but cant open it, it is asking me how I want to open the file.

I do not know what to use to open the files, if I choose something it will use that program to open everything I download and i will not know what the default path is to open files . please help, and thank you in advance, mike

this is how the files look when I unzip them :
