After you update your mobo BIOS to the latest version, open Device Manager and 1. Check to see if there are any devices with warnings for missing drivers and install those drivers, 2. Make sure your USB fan controller is showing up as a device.

Yeah, I think this was an issue as well before. If I unplugged the USB form the MB while on I'd get an error message basically saying Windows did not recognize the device.

That's the problem with this stuff. Tons of great reviews, but a handful of absolutely terrible ones...or basically exactly the types of reviews you find on line for nearly anything.

Personally I use liquidctl with some scripts I wrote to control mine, but that's definitely advanced stuff and you should try to get it showing up in Cam before you try anything else.

Yup...way above my paygrade.

Is this still happening now even after Cam is installed?
If so, it sounds like there's a missing driver for the device, which would explain why Cam can't see it. If the driver is missing it'll show up in Device Manager with a warning next to it.
If this popped up before Cam was installed, that's probably expected though.

Unfortunately almost all of the stock software for RGB stuff is pretty crappy and they don't play well with one another, so the bar is low
