Fast boot is still on in BIOS, it's now off in Windows Shutdown Settings. With new Windows update, it remains lighted 24/7. Already had changed ERP setting in BIOS long time ago to at least stop keyboard lighting up, even though it would light up if I touched any key. You may also want to turn off Fast Boot in the Bios as well. Quadlatte Nereus bcavnaugh Maybe turning off ERP/EUP in the Bios? But also known to be an issue on ROG Motherboards. bios fast start is more of skipping some tests at post, you may find that the time from when you push the power button to when windows starts to load will be shorter. Since turning it off in Windows settings, there appears to be no difference in time taken to start up again, so perhaps BIOS fast startup is independent of Windows fast startup setting, which makes the Windows one unnecessary, and also fixes the issue with the keyboard lights.īios and windows fast startup are two different things, in windows its kinda like hibernate were it saves your page file and reloads it, was mostly intended to speed up windows load time on HDD's, but since ssd's are so much faster it is basically worthless and causes more problems than it's worth. Nereus bcavnaugh Maybe turning off ERP/EUP in the Bios? But also known to be an issue on ROG Motherboards. I turned fast start back on in Windows Shutdown Settings and the keyboard remained lighted when I shutdown, so that appears to confirm the issue is with the o/s settings not the hardware (or at least how the hardware interprets the windows settings?). Cool GTX Curious if after a reboot (Windows saves a new fast start file) if you turn fast start back on do those mouse & keyboard light stay on again? Didn't consider that, so I just tested it. Since this recent Windows update, the keyboard was remaining lighted 24/7 (I really want to say 'lit' but apparently that is not correct use of the word, since I didn't actually set the keyboard on fire, lol).

previously the lights would go out on shutdown, but if I touched any key, the keyboard would light up again, even though the system was shutdown. I'm aware of the BIOS setting ErP ready to S5, but that didn't fix it this time. Yes this issue is with my signature setup - ASUS IX Hero and Windows 10 Pro 64bit, version 1709, and started with the most recent cumulative update a few days ago (). Cool GTX This issue is with your signature MB - Asus ROG Maximus IX Hero ?
