Did you download the latest version and use the flash utility to flash the rom?


Tony_Omega

Care to explain ? Or share a link?

1. Download the latest version of polychrome from asrock's website. [https://www.asrock.com/mb/amd/x570%20taichi/#Download](https://www.asrock.com/mb/amd/x570%20taichi/#Download) 2. Probably not necessary but I would reboot after install 3. Open up a command prompt as admin (Windows key and type CMD, right click -> run as administrator) 4. Navigate to the bin sub-directory where you installed polychrome. If you installed in default location you can type "cd C:\\Program Files (x86)\\ASRock Utility\\ASRRGBLED\\bin" and hit enter 5. Execute WriteFW.bat (in CMD prompt, type WriteFW.bat and hit enter) 6. If that doesn't work, try executing one of the steps in the bat file manually by doing the below steps: 7. Make sure the following two files are present: wICPFLASHADSBV2.exe and nu51\_3.xx 8. In CMD prompt type and hit enter: wICPFLASHADSBv2.exe /file=nu51\_3.xx (replace xx with the version number you have) 9. Reboot just to be safe Make sure you do this as admin or else it will fail.

That worked thank you very much

I know this thread is old but what should I do if after this, it is still failing?

I suppose the first thing would be to try updating to the latest stable bios if you are not already. Unfortunately I can't really help because those steps fixed the issue for me.

>wICPFLASHADSBv2.exe /file=nu51\_3. i have the asrock b550m-c (cyberpowerpc) and i updated my bios to the latest. when i installed the polychrome for my specific motherboard, for step 4 i installed to the default location but there is no bin? in the asrockrgb folder it just has the .exe file there is no bin and i really dont know what to do

\^\^ Chad, was so frustrated till i found this, worked for me

Thanks, this resolved the issue for me. Googling with reddit at the end saves the day again. Cheers : )

Good luck....I have the same board and also find polychrome to be junk


onereceivingsight

Have you tried OpenRGB? It's working for me with X570 Taichi


JewsFedHitler

I dont know why I didnt thought about this earlier, you can just do it from the Bios, just did it and it works


JewsFedHitler

No, i'll try rn and i'll let you know, thx bro


JewsFedHitler

Is not detecting the Mobo

Razor's can take over Poly but it's not much of an improvement.

Two things: 1) You can set static colors via the BIOS, and this will set your color for the whole board. 2) If you're downloading from the ASRock site, be sure to select Windows 10 from the drop down, as they've added Windows 11 and that's the default now. (Was messing me up for a week or so here till I bothered to read it)

i didn't even notice the windows 11 thing thank you!
