PC model? The lights on my case do not work?

The light on the power button is on but the lights on the side of the case are out. Sometimes when I start the PC they will come on briefly but they do not stay on for more than a minute or two.

What model of Alienware desktop do you have?

Sometimes they ship with non-optimal default settings for Alienware Command Center. Try these:

- Command Center
- - Inactivity Timer: Never Go Inactive
- - Keep Status Zones on during Go Dark
- - Enable 3rd Party AlienFX Access
- - Thermal Controller to Manual and then a reasonable Curve for each user-controllable fan
- - Thermal Controller each Fan linked to "CPU Sensor"
- In AlienFusion, Power-Profile is set to "High Performance"
- In AlienFusion "Always Ready Mode" is turned OFF
- - Now you can right click on AlienFX icon in TaskTray, and set Inactivity Timer to Custom/Never go Inactive.
- - The monitor, case lights, and (especially) FANS now stay ON while a benchmark or stress-test is running.

Then use AlienFX to set your lighting theme.

Save, Apply, Done.
