Hi all,

I have this card and since 3-4 nvidia driver updates back, the on card LED system is not working as intended.
Basically it has a windforce led that only turns on when the fans are spinning, and turns off when they stop. It also can be set to be of a different color.

Initially 3-4 updates back, the color stopped working and it would only be white no matter what color I set in the gigabyte application

Then with every subsequent update (even yesterday's), while the color works fine, the AUTO mode where the led turns on when fans spin doesn't work. It can manually turn it on and off though so it's not the led that is broken or anything.

Is there any way to fix this from your experience? Or must I just pray and hope for an nvidia driver update that actually works with it?
