MSI Mystic Light sucks, and we all know that.

[WhiteHarlequin]

Hello guys, as the title says I think that MSI software to control RGB lights could be made muuuuch better. I have recently installed this PCIe cable riser (https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B08R9PDBTD) in my sistem, connecting the 5V aRGB cable to the JRainbow1 header. Well, that should work, but it doesn't. The device doesn't even light up. On top of this, the PCH RGB lights don't work anymore, but they did before installing this cable riser. I've tried reinstalling Mystic Light as well as MSI Center, but this didn't fix the issue. Even with other RGB softwares, like OpenRGB, the motherboard is detected but its lights don't light up nor change color at all. Any ideas?

 

EDIT: I may as well buy this adapter (https://www.amazon.it/dp/B07XP1B41B) and control it through iCue, but I'd prefer not to spend 15$ extra.
