First of all, hello everyone, I'm new here and I expect to participate more in the forums from now on.

I recently upgraded my desktop gaming system to accommodate the brand new ASUS ROG Rampage IV Black Edition motherboard. I installed a Intel Core i7 4960X and 32 GB of Memory DDR3, 2 EVGA NVidia GTX Titan in SLI, plus 3 SSD in Raid, all this around a Corsair AX1200 PSU Inside a Corsair Graphite Series 600T. For cooling system I use the case stock fans (2x 200 mm and 1x 120 mm) and for CPU cooling I use the Corsair Hydro Series H100i. OS: Windows 8.1.

When I installed Windows 8 the system was unable to recognize the cooler so Corsair Link can't see it, making impossible to manage fan speed and other features.. Moreover, I can't use Corsair Link to update the firmware or anything else. I've looked for a solution but nothing I've tried works at all. The cooler used to work just fine before I changed the motherboard.

Has anyone been able to fix this?
I Hope someone can help.

There is currently no fix for this, and corsair is still working on resolving it. Their next version of the link software should solve this, but its been delayed for quite a while now. Corsair forums should give more detail.

I had the same issue on my P55 board. Eventually I figured out the H100i would not be recognized if I used the internal USB headers. But if I ran a USB cable out to one of the USB ports on the back of the motherboard it worked fine.
