Hey, long time reader and first time poster here. I have an odd build issue I'm hoping someone here can help me with.
I recently just finished putting together a new AM5 system (details below). When the PC goes to sleep, the Power LED on the case does not blink, so I have no way to know if the system is asleep or turned off. The system resumes from sleep normally if the Power button is pressed. The Power LED is lit when the system is on.
I connected the Power LED as per the diagram below using MSI's front panel connector.
I also checked the BIOS settings. There is an option under ACPI > Power LED. Changing it from Blinking to Dual Color and back again had no effect.
I even tested with another LED connected (not the one on the case) to the Power LED pins on the motherboard: same behaviour. This has me thinking it's something on the motherboard or system side.
Has anyone run into a similar situation and figured out the cause?
CPU: Ryzen 9950X
Motherboard: MSI X870E Tomahawk
Case: Be Quiet! Pure Base 600
OS: Windows 11 24H2
Bios: 7E59 v2A4 (March 18, 2025)
