Did I do it correctly
what
To charge it
plug the transmitter into the PC and keep it there, plug the cable into the mouse (other side into pc) to charge it.
could just be a software display issue then
im trying to downloadf the software how do i do it
Should I reinstall?
it just makes me download steel series gg engine
you can
That's it
Thanks melker,I will try after I get back from my school orientation.
np
fixed it, i found out it was just slow charging
Good to hear
hi i need help
I wanted to ask how I can change the color of my keyboard
They told me that with a steelseries app but the one I have is this
and the one I need is like this
You can't find it in the engine tab?
Try a reinstall I guess
this is what comes out
I saw the first time. It's a known issue, contact #official-support for official help, unsure of a fix currently
ok
Hey guys , just bought a arctis wireless pro , and i cant find any way to activate surround sound ? I mean , its "on" but theres absolutely no difference with/without it , EQ works , but not surround , tried all i could find on reddit..
i've got an opened ticket for like 1week now without answers , and from what i gathered on reddit , nobody ever found a fix ?
ive tried everything , dolby atmos , dts (on windows) , sonic , enhancement on/off , realtek drivers , SS engine uninstalled or not etc
also from what i noticed , i cant uninstall "arctis pro wireless" device with the "driver" i can just uninstall the device but not the driver
yeah i tried to play with dac or just engine , or both , changed nothing but EQ
Sounds like you've tried almost everything then, all you can do is wait for a response to your ticket
when i want to uninstall the device i dont have the thing to delete the driver aswell
Some people may be able to forward your case if you haven't received a response yet, otherwise it's just to wait.
yeah well rip , from what i noticed nobody got a fix for this issue and they just playing in stereo.....
and support has no idea about this , from what i read too
i've been thru 40reddits pages :/
and i also tried my headset on 2 different pc , never worked in surround
feels like a firmware update problem
I have the Arctis 9x and I really want to love them, but they consistently shut off. I don't see any new firmware to install. Has anyone had success using the Xbox Wireless adapter on the PC rather than bluetooth to connect the headset that way instead and keeping the headset on longer than 15 minutes? I'm currently testing to see if leaving my Xbox controller plugged into my PC will keep the headset turned on.
I had that issue with my 9x because it was connecting the headset as a communication device. As soon as I switched back to "headset stereo" instead of "headset hands-free.." it switched to surround sound. I know I have a different headset, but maybe something to look at?
thanks for your answer , well thats the most basic solution some people found ^^ but unfortunatly i got my default device set to "game" and not "chat" so its already on the good one 😦
That sucks. I've run into that roadblock with SteelSeries email support as well. I'm not sure if there's a learning curve with their support and the current technology or if they're just all so swamped that everything gets lost in translation. I really didn't want to switch back to my astros, the mic sounds like crap, but I'm running out of ways to create my own solutions. So I feel you.
from what i've read , everyone who had problem with them just returned their headphone for a refund and changed brand ^^"
Yeah, that's what I was trying to avoid. There just isn't a market for headsets that will dual connect with PC and Xbox without a mixer.
i know arctis pro wireless can multi device connect if thats what you meant
But if you're seeing issues with surround sound, then maybe that's not the direction I need to go. I've seen that issue a lot in the forums as well without answers. Edited to add: it also looks like the Pro Wireless only offers game chat if you keep the app on your computer instead of being able to chat through the console. So ehh.
yup idk , worse thing is support is non existant ^^" And no update have been pushed in years about this issue....
Oh yeah well no idea sorry , im playing on PC so thats simpler :p
whats youre trying to do is , being able to chat with people on xbox + discord on pc?
I'm looking for one headset that will allow me to chat in discord/listen to stream alerts while playing on Xbox that I can also flip and play games on PC while in discord/listening to stream alerts.
Hello,
I have been waiting for 5 days. They issued wrong rma code for me. When i am contacting via support no body answering since 5 days now.
Is there any other way to contact them ?
ive been waiting for 1week now lol , give them a month x)
thats not good
It took probably 2 months to get a response from them on my issue. Total back and forth of 5 emails. Unfortunately, not the fastest at email support.
2months , holy moly , that could be a scam since 2Month would get you out of the 14days to return your product !
I dont understand the way they handle the support. I love steelseries products but this ways they treat the customers i dont think i will stay with them anymore
Yeah, I had no option to return my product for full refund before I realized it wasn't going to work the way I wanted it to. I wish I would have known about the discord before I purchased.
to be honest you should of chargeback with your creditcard
well at least you could return it ^^ for cheap i believe?
i live on an island , i pay huge price to return product..
Instead of a return? why
she said she took 2 months to return
for exemple me , i paid taxes to get the product , i paid delivery for high price , and now i'd have to pay delivery once more and taxe once more lol
basicaly i lost 30-40% of the product price just by accepting and returning the product
agreed
I've had them since January at this point. I'll probably just keep dealing with the shut offs until I find something that will work for me. They're comfortable and they work when I'm playing games, it's just not good for streams.
shut off might be just a weird conflict
have you tried them just on pc or just on xbox?
It has to be something with bluetooth on the PC because now that my controller is connected to my PC, it hasn't shut off. But before it was shutting off after 15 minutes whether my Xbox was asleep or not.
It doesn't shut off when I'm listening to my phone, but it does it both with my laptop which has integrated bluetooth and my PC which has a bluetooth adapter.
hmm if you like wireless you better switch to wireless pro then, the DAC is "wifi"
so theres no bluetooth problems
but yeah if it works with something else than your pc , might just be a little problem of detection etc
So just a quick question
Yeah, if I'm going to wind up buying a whole new headset, I'll honestly probably return to the brand that was working. Just was hoping that maybe it was a firmware issue or something with the bluetooth, but that's looking less and less likely.
anyone here able to join a VC so I can describe the problem?
I have a very hard to describe issue
I'm in the middle of my workday, unfortunately.
and im french so i prob wont understand oraly ^^
even if i understood theres no way ill find a fix since im totaly new to this brand^^
ive recently gotten steelseries GG and it tried to do a firmware update for my mouse and it doesnt get recognised by my pc anymore, ive tried factory reboot on the mouse and it works like a very basic mouse but if i try to plug it in normally after that it stops working and if i try to update the mouse while in the reboot mode it also stops working. anyone got any idea ?
Hmm
but writing your issue is your best bet so "many" people will look
just feels like SS gg is trash and fuks up everything
So I have a new Arctis 5 headset yeah?
Distortion? Are you using a usb hub
It was working fine for the first 3 days
I am using USB 3.0
I've tried moving it to USB 2.0, no fix, different USB 3.0, no fix
And my mic sounds like it's being run over by a train when I speak
ye it is but now i cant seem to get my mouse to work even after deinstalling everythingand trying again with my mouse
have you tried uninstalling the device driver?
device manager -> find you mouse , uninstall + driver
yeah it works if i do that and boot it in the safe mode
but then its like a default slow ass mouse
if i then try to take it out and put it back in it doesnt work anymore
no idea sorry 😦 got a problem with my headset too ^^"
thanks anyway
remember when mouses were just mouses and you didnt need to download a program that automatically does shit that fucks yourstuff up :^)
That was about the same time that games were competitive instead of sweaty 😉 lol, everyone looking for more response and customization.
My sound from my headset is glitching when i switch from game or chat to something els. My hole audio from my pc is crashing when i use the wrong output on discord. I have the steelseries arctis 5 and a studio microfoon Behringer C-1U. Can anyone help me
Can you describe "glitching" and "crashing" with specific symptoms?
it works now i downloaded an older version of steelseries engine maybe thatll work for you too
When im in call with people and start gta v or cold war all my sounds on my hole computer stops also my microfoon and it as an studio mic so not the mic from the arctis 5
when i dl an old version of steelseries it auto updates to a newer...
If it's all audio and not just a headset problem, could just be audio drivers on your computer. Maybe uninstall them and restart your computer? You can also try setting discord up to not use default audio devices and set them as specific devices to see if that helps the cut out. But if your entire input/output breaks when you switch applications, it might just be your computer.
So i accidently hit the X when i was gonna put this 10% discount on. How do i get it back?
put the code back
No like it was the newsletter one
It wont pop back up?
like it said would you like to use it or no and i accidentally hit no
and now i cant get it back
how did you get the code in the first place
Should be able to clear your cookies on the page, refresh, and get the popup again
the steelseries gg enginge literally doesnt work
changing equalizer settings doesnt do anything
mine EQ work , but surround doesnt :/
for me
your rgb is working or not?
lol
my rgb is not working when I plug in usb
also it says "reconnect headset" forever
I have rival 3 (it's also rgb and all things are working properly) and when I plug in usb it was ready to use
Should i buy the game dac head set
Maybe, maybe not. Might be worth it for you. Also which one
i have to replug my headset to apply them
arctis pro gamedac
Nobody can tell you if you should, look at your budget and features you need as well as looking at other options to see if it's worth it for you.
Just as an update on my Arctis 9X, since my Xbox controller has been plugged into my PC (nearly 2 hours), it hasn't shut off and I've have had no audio hiccups while watching videos. I ordered the Xbox Wireless USB adapter as a last ditch effort to remedy this issue. When it arrives later this week, I'll test and update with my findings. If this works, it'll still be cheaper than my only other alternative.
Is there a way to don't work rgb on Arctis 5 when first run? In my opinion answer is no
Well its either the one with the dac or no dac, i looked it up and they are the same just one has a dac
But maybe there are some people who deal with this issue
try changing the bass settings and then plugging your headset in and out
worked for me
my god i wish surround was working for me..
did it work?
so i unplug headset first?
first i changed the settings and then i did that
i dont seem to have any change nop
worse part is their support
its cheaper for them to replace headset than fix the problem so..
How can I tell if my headphones are jarj? ( Steel series arctis 7.1 wireless)
whats jarj ?
*charge
theres something here if the battery is chargin in the dac
I don't have it, I have to go to warranty
have you put your battery into your dac ?
you could just plug your headset in USB to your pc for it to charge
yes sure
rip
upset
welcome into the steelseries family
anyone know how long the warranty is on the Arctis pro wireless? My left ear started cutting out 
nop but id like to know if you find it
hey new owner here of the series pro I have this currently hoooked up to my pc and ps5 and I get audio from both also my mic works on the ps5 but I do not know how to set up the mic for the PC please help 😦
hey i just bought the arctis 5 headset, and downloaded engine to try and set it up. my device isnt showing up in engine and ive tried all the basics of updating drivers, making sure device is recognized etc, is there anything i can do to get it recognized in engine?
is there a place I can find and download user made LED configurations for apps, or does such place exist? mainly for keyboard setups
just spilled monster on my mouse, someone knows what i have to do?
@potent karma the steelseries engine
So i had an issue with my wireless pro where the headset wore down and cracked. Support person was helpful but im really disappointed with the fact my warranty is so short. I spent 500 Australian dollars on a product that breaks and i get no discount or replacement. Very poor service on such a good brand. My whole set up is steelseries but ater this im going to look elsewhere. Even a small 5% discount or some sort of action to show steelseries cares about existing customers would have been greatly appreciated.
Idk how everyone else feels but i just expected better.
i started using my controller and my artic 1 started disconnect itself while charging and now sometimes it doesnt even charge , i tested 5 other USB's on it , cant seem to work , i'm 100%sure those USB's work
I agree, that's disappointing. Unfortunately I've had similar experiences with other brands too. I actually switched to SteelSeries from Logitech because of this.
I'm having an odd experience with GG lately where it doesn't recognize my Arctis Pro as connected on restart. I have to manually unplug the USB cable and re-plug it in for it to recognize it again. Has anybody had or resolved a similar issue?
Reset the pc.
Jo Guys,
does ur Profile of e.g ur Mice, change when u start a specific game? Mine doenst automaticaly, (yes i have said GG that it should use this Profile when start this application)
Ah sorry I should’ve mentioned I’ve done that too, I’ve tried every solution I could find online and nothings worked so far. Should I just wait for customer support to get back to me later this morning then?
Can you show me where you plugged your headset and where to ur pc?
I’m not home currently but I’ve plugged it into all the USB ports on my pc several times trying to fix it
Yeah I tried changing it to that and plugging it in but still nothing, I can try again later today when I get off work. Tyvm for answering all my questions and trying to help 💖
I didn’t find a ton online so I figured I’d ask to see if anyone had any separate solutions that worked here
Don’t use that
Oh alright
Hold up lemme show sicne I have a actis 5 too!
There should be a wire for this port
hi i just got arctis 1 wireless but i dont see any noise reduction or surround sound, anyone can help?
Oh yeah I have all that plugged in and set up, i currently have it sitting at home connected to the usb cable and plugged into my pc. Everything else about the headset has been nice and I’m not gonna scream and cry if my engine doesn’t work lmao
I’m fine with how it is honestly, was just curious if anybody else had the same issue and happened to have a fix. Ty again 💖
So on the steelseries engine i keep on trying to bind my clip shortcut to F9 but it won't work. anyone know the fix?
Hello I ve never updated my arctis pros and I'm about to but don't know how. I've heard it has bricked some head sets please help want to do it right I have engine installed
My artic pro wireless stopped working and I’ve been trying to claim an rma but I never get a response
All the cases I’ve opened has had no replies and I need a new headset soon
@abstract tartan from updating!?
It just stopped working
Like it doesn’t turn on or anything
I’ve tried on my mates pc etc but nothing works
oh that sucks man im sorry 😦
Yehh man I’ve tried the online support thing but haven’t had a reply yet
did you update your head set before this happened?
cause i need to do mine which i have never done
and ive heard it causes bricks
Nahh I didn’t
I didn’t do any updates that I’m aware of
Unless it did it automatically
i see im trying to usine engine on the pc
and asks for an update so i cant use the equalizer
Ahh
which should I do first the orange or blue update?
i wich i could uninstall firmware update and also delete the blue banner update , rip
dont do them , they'll fuk ur headset
well fuck me i already did
use the dac for settings
rip
@hallow geodeyour surround works ? mine changes absolutely nothing
am i fucked now
you may be lucky who knows
Does your surround work?
I got the headphones today and did the firmware update too. 7.1 surround does not work from my PC but it does work from bluetooth on my phone 
Surround works just fine on Linux, but not on Windows
Cringe
alright, apparently I had mono audio turned on
sad
it doesnt , was speaking with him
theres no surround on bluetooth since theres no dac
lucky if your surround works , it doesnt for me and Dasboot
i’m trying to do the new aerox 3 wireless firmware update and i got to the step where i have to click enter on my keyboard and it didn’t do anything so maybe i hooked up the cable and dongle with the adapter wrong i’m not sure tho. i think i would need a tutorial or a step by step thing to be able to do this. btw i can’t use my mouse till the firmware update is done
stinky
but
maybe go to the website
i can’t
the mouse doesn’t work
use rival 3
i can’t somehow it’s broken too
then youre fucked
Most likely no issue at all
ok i just re tried doing the update everything is fine now
@dim furnace please read the rules, don't tag mods unless its an emergency. Make sure to make a ticket, as we don't work at SS #official-support
if anyone ever find a fix for surround not working on arctis pro wireless , please PM me , this annoys me for real
(i dont speak stereo left right , i speak surround left right rear etc)
nice clips tho
it doesn't work with faceit ac
because the AC blocks it
as far as i can tell
just use their client highlights i guess
#official-support, mods don't work for steelseries and don't have the inherent ability to help you better than anyone else. Official support is what you want.
yep, thanks Melker
So i have a artics 9x and for some reason it dosnt wanna power on. It alwats worked out fine before but it just turned off. I tried to charge it but it wont charge and nothing will light up. I dont know if its broken or im doing something wrong. what do I do
Hi anyone here knows the fix for Arctis Wireless Pro not pairing with the transmitter after the update?
Anyone has their artics pro headset randomly not getting sound from the right headset
i saw something similar on reddit , look for it
Tried doing the steps provided there and I'm still unable to pair it 😦
rip
TBH, the support isn't helpful either 😦

Apologies if I'm asking in the wrong chat but I would like to know how good the Arctis 5's headphone noise cancellation is. I'm asking because I'm assuming that at least someone in this discord owns the Arctis 5 headphones and because I have quite the lot of background noise, I'm just curious if I'll hear a lot when I put the headphones on, Thanks.
artics 9x is the worst headset ever
thanks for sharing your opinion
no problem
the artics 9x breaks when you dont even do anything to it. mine stopped working and wont charge for some reason I tried everything. even the rest buttom. The only thing I get is blue and white flashing lights on the side when I hold the power and bluetooth buttom at the same time. It wont charge I dont know what to do
I plugged it in my computer
nothing
I went to different ports and still nothing
I contacted the steel series and am still waiting
anyone know how to adjust mic sensitivity on the arctis 9x? randomly out of the blue something changed and i have connectivity issues and the mic is WAY TOO SENSITIVE. unbearably sensitive, as in it picks up mouse clicks and breathing even when its way far from my face. it didnt use to do any of that, so im not sure what changed
ive done as much as i can in discord to adjust for it
YO i just got the steel series pro wireless and i've been messing aroudn with the eq and installing the steelseries software but i cant find out how to make footsteps louder and more clearear and shots and other things have like no direction and are very bland, how do i fix this?
I just got my RGB mousepad (3XL) delivered today, got it plugged in, and it didn't turn on. My laptop is broken right now, so I have no access to the engine. I'm wondering if you can only turn on/off the RBG's with the engine, or if someone is wrong with mine. Again, laptop is broken so I can't access the engine atm.
i got a new adapter fir my arctis 7 hesdset but idk how to connect my headset to the new adapter anyhelp?

I have this same issue on 2 computers now, where SteelSeries GG refuses to install any updates. It notifies me about them but I can't start the install. This has been a problem since GG was released on macOS.
It never just goes past this
Tried upgrading firmware on my M400, said it had an error now my keyboard doesn’t work 😥
Any help?
Only the 4 lights are on up top, can’t type and rest of keyboard won’t turn on or type. I can’t find the keyboard anywhere else and I really like it, I’m afraid to turn my PC off cause I’m afraid it’ll lock me out. Please help if possible!
I've been using the SteelSeries GG app to autoclip stuff but lately it hasn't been working for LoL, whenever I go to game detection and try to set it to auto it gives me a fatal error and closes the software.
Is there a way to fix this issue?

hey guys, any music pros out their who understand EQ settings?
I got the arctis 7 headset and i wanna adjust the bass a little and sound im just trying to understand the EQ and what is bass, whats voice, highs/lows etc
i want to get rid of that how do i explain it "bzzzzz" sound when drums go off
if i remember corectly , left is lows right is highs
hello ! i have a problem with my artic 7 , since the stelseeries GG release my mic quality sounds horrible
ive had complaints about feedback on my mic with the arctis 7 since the upgrade
Which would be a better option for the Arctis 7p on ps5 (Dolby or DTS)
Sounds like DTS gives better detailed audio but wasn’t sure if it was able to handle the coding
ive not changed anything
ive changed all since, defaulted things like they were, and still work that way
i even changed usb ports and desinstalled GG software and installed previes SS Engine software, to no avail
Another question relating to the eq, I just bought arctis pro wireless' and it seems as though, the SSE does absolutely nothing for my sound quality and eq stuff
welcome onboard , but EQ works for me , surround doesnt
@timid harbor I disabled all my hamachi and nord stuff
Still doesnt work correctly
Reinstalled GG
ive done litteraly EVERYTHING possible , nothing worked for surround
ive been thru all pages on reddit , nobody has found a fix in 4years lol
not even steelseries support , they answered me earlier , they told me to put it in warranty but then they dont ship where i live lol , what a fukin joke
Ok so does the EQ work on GG and surround I have to do it on the dac ?
wireless transmitter **
Hi, for some reason my Arctis Pro Wired microphone is extremely quiet
Windows is set to 100% mic
GG is set to max mic volume
And I have the latest version of the headset software and GG
Is it quiet in every app tested
Haha yea that would be silly
But no, people in calls tell me its quiet and when I have the sounded recorded or played back live still quiet
Ok so Just recently my Rival 3 LMB has been very squeaky
Its about an month old and I take good care of it
I never dusted it but do clean the surface areas can anyone help me?
Hey guys I have two questions. I have the Arctis 9 headset for a few months now and my mic is sometimes really low volume. I don't know how to set the volume of my mic louder, so any help would be appreciated. Second question is my friend has the same headset and he gets a warning sound when the headset is almost out of battery so he knows when to charge it. I do not get that warning sound so when the battery is empty it will just shut down and I have to charge it. Any help on how to fix these 2 things?
@finite stirrup Fiddle around the device properties of your mic by right clicking your volume icon and either going in "Sounds" > "Recording" , right clicking your mic and going under "Levels", check if it is at 100.
Look around your app input device and input volume too ?
Hello, can someone tell me how to write directly with Steelseries support?
Hello everyone, I've been encountering a problem launching Destiny 2 and having my Arctis 9 headset. As soon as Destiny 2 launches, Output and Input sounds are muted/off, no sound coming out of the headset or going in, even if my system shows there is sound.
My Chatmix is all set properly (chat set as default communication and game as default device).
Videos on YT, discord, and Destiny sound, can't hear a thing. But as soon as I close the game it works again.
Has anyone encountered the same problem ?
thanks! Do you have a warning sound with your headset when the battery is low?
I do, sadly I don't have a clue why you don't
weird.. maybe a audo setting in windows?
Could be something muted in windows setting I guess yeah
you know which setting?
I don't
Additional info for my issue, the only way that makes me able to hear sound from both the game, youtube and/or discord is to deactivate Arctis 9 chat input device in Sound settings
hmm idk when i start destiny 2 it doesnt do that
hello I bought a headset and the microphone grezilleu and beug I would like to know how to regulate it
rip to the blue led
Hello, I have a software problem with my mouse usage. my logitech old one I used a "Alt+Tab" function assign in a mouse buttom. I pressed and it's command is " [pressdown]Alt+Tab" but not lift up anything then whenever it switching to app I want to jump I free my finger from buttom to "[liftup]Alt+Tab" but in Steelseries GG macro it is always force everyting to end up with lift up buttom function but I want lift up is action from my finger not a software. How I can solve this problem and I can't even find a macro file to adjust. This is really annoying 😡
My Arctis 3s' microphone doesn't work
But it's worse than that:
The sound that comes out of them is the sound that plays on the PC (so for example if the PC beeps then you'd hear that beep instead of my voice
I was playing a few games of Split gate then my mouse died (Prime Wireless) and now it wont move the cursor on screen after charging it. Also doesnt work wired. Anyone know how to fix?
So, when I use the Arctis 9X to VC with people in discord the audio sounds really crappy, but if I go to discord settings and put headsets as output it just doesn't give any sound at all
Does anyone know how to fix this issue at all?
when i use the wireless feature on my arctis 1 wireless, sounds for media only comes out of my left ear, but for like sidetones it comes out both ears, does anyone know how to fix this??
I just downloaded the Steelseries engine to try to get surround sound for my Arctis 7, but when I installed the engine my Arctis 7 won't turn on anymore. The only way I can hear is if I connect it with via analog. Anyone know how to fix this?
It also says in the engine to reconnect the headset, but even when I reconnect the usb dongle, it doesn't work.

hi everyone i was wondering can you use the audio visualiser with a apex 350?
because my just flashes slightly between 2 colours
was wondering if it is the keyboard or just i dont have it setup right
hi can someone please help me
my apex pro caps lock is a bit broken
sometimes when i press it, it just doesn't change the color but it does work, it's very frustrating cause i don't know when i have caps enabled/disabled sometimes
the same happens on my num lock key
Try a factory reset, otherwise RMA via #official-support
what do you mean by factory reset? like factory reset my entire pc?
the keyboard
how do i do that?
1.Unplug the Keyboard
1.Press and Hold and OLED Menu Button/Multimedia Button and the scrollwheel
3.Plug the keyboard back in and continue holding the buttons until the keyboard flashes
okay ill try that, thanks in advance!!
np

whats the difference between meta and key bindings?
Meta is a secondary layer which can be accessed by the function/steelseries key
oh okay thank you again lol
no worries
i have a question, so when i press the steelseries key and then the windows key on the left of my keyboard, the windows key turns blue, what does that change?
It means it cannot be used
oh ok
Mostly to prevent accidental keypresses
okay thx
okay i have another question lol
whenever i plug in my arctis 7x headphones they make a beeping sound, i have to turn them off and on again to make it stop, it also happens when i open the steelseries engine, any way to fix this?
You can start by trying another USB port (2.0vs3.0) and performing a factory reset using the pinhole button under the earcup
okay thanks
hey so i have just got a steel series rival 3 wireless mouse and i have the app and everything but i cant pair it because the cpi button in the app is just like not working any help ?
Hey, I have an old hand me down steelseries mousepad with both the logo and name on the front (steel in bold, series in regular font). It is 6 mm thick with sponge like material on the sides, and it is. about 32cm by 29.5 cm. Could someone help me identify if it is an old qck heavy, a qck mass, or a fake?
Yeah, already sifted through that article, but it didn't really help much
Not easy to tell from your description either
fair point. not exactly comfortable sending photos
not so much we can do for you then
Hey guys, I reset windows 10 on my MSI Stealth GS75, it has a steel series RGB keyboard and now on the steelseries engine it shows as not connected. and i cant control the colors of it.
I did install the latest version of everything, uninstalled the device, the driver all that multiple times, multiple reboots and still nothing. It was working just fine before the reset, is there anything else you guys think i could do?
More appropriate for MSI support, at least that's where steelseries directs you
Hard to say. It's not if it's worth it for you
Hey, all. I have an arctis 9x with the dongle, in my windows device manager it says there is a driver error, there is no update to be found through the troubleshooter, there is no update detected from the steelseries GG and I can't get my headset to connect with bluetooth. any help would be appreciated. there seems to be no phone number to call to contact cust support that i can find anywhere in the SS GG app or in the website.
they keep pushing me to the other
there is no phone number, correct
official customer support is in #official-support , use the bottom right chat icon to open a ticket
i typed into the little chat bubble on the bottom right, just wasn't very clear that i opened a ticket or that somone would reachout to me, we where.
This got buried
And this
And this also
do i need to keep the window open? or will they email me?
you don't need to keep the window open
this is a weird question but im looking to buy some keycaps and im pretty sure they will work well because they have cherry mx things but am wondering if someone can help me out with how they would look... the keycaps are KBDfans NP PBT Keycaps
Anything with an MX stem will work. Never used NP so there is a chance of interference but it's most likely fine.
Yes i know that i was just wondering if someone could help maybe give me a video link or something to see how they would look and sound on the keyboard
Look up NP crayon on a black TKL and you'll find something close enough. They won't sound so different, maybe slightly less hollow.
okay thanks
anybody have issue with pro wireless surround sound ?
Okay so i cant find it mind providing a link?
I'll dm you
do the Hyper X Pudding keycaps work with the Apex Pro TKL?
Does the 350 have individually addressable RGB for each key? If not then the visualizer isn't going to work as intended
anyone here knows why the software changes aren't applying to my headset?
it's been like this for a while now but I dont know how to fix it

It's a bug the devs are working to fix in the next patch
No it doesn't thanks for the help

So, I have an arctis 1 headset, and its mic does not really give good sound to discord, could this be a driver issue? Always been using steelseries, never had issues, first time i'm having an issue with a new headset
are there any specific audio drivers for steelseries headsets?
the issue - when i talk i can barely hear myself :/
Hey folks! Just got the additional software bug kicking off in GG and it's not letting me access DTS on the Arctis Pro Wireless
the only time it works is when i blow into the mic, then it registers something
Just wondering if anyone has been able to fix this?
Good day,
I have the following problem. I have the Arctis Pro Wireless and always have the Probelm that for no apparent reason my sound is gone and then suddenly there again. I have also reinstalled the software and my headset always reconnected.
I'm trying to read through steelseries support right now, but I have the Arctis 9X headsets. Last night, they just stopped connecting to my Xbox. The light is red and they don't seem to be responding to my attempts to turn them off. Has anyone else ran into this? It happened when I had stepped away from my Xbox. I went near my router, wondering if that's what caused it.
Jk I figured it out by pressing the hardware reset switch. Sharing in case it comes up for anyone else 🙂
Hello I got a bug/problem with GG
I set a profile to be launched with a game for my keyboard (M750) and my mouse (Aerox 3 wireless)
The profile change while in game and came back to default when it's close BUT when my computer restart, the game profile is applied by default ONLY for my mouse and I have to change it manually everytimes
How do you actually send in a ticket with SS now? The contact us button send me to an awful automated faq page with no way of sending/writing an email
Click the little chat button in the bottom right corner
that seemed to do just the same thing as the page
You can either type "ticket" and it may come up or after you describe the issue just scroll to the bottom and click "not helpful" or whatever it says and then it should give you the option to fill out a support ticket
Hey so I recently got a wireless dongle for my arctis 7p but I cannot find how to use the steelseries engine to connect it. Anyone know where and how?

I started to have an issue with my headset recently ( Arctis pro wireless ) whenever i join discord with the output being the proper output for the headset and my actual pc audio being sent to Arctis Pro Game , it always mutes everything.

this is what i mean its pluged in but not showing the charging only remaining
this is more clear
Is it fully charged?
no
Hello ;p was wondering, i have blue yeti mic and arctic pro wirless headset with the dec/mixer. Its a USB mic with a aux headphone jack for realtime playback if using a pair of normal jack earphones.
was wondering if it was possible to directly Plug the mic into the dec/mixxer for 'sidetone' from the blue yeti (not the headset mic). The 'Listen to this device' option is not what im looking for p;
The question is regarding the steelseries dec no the microphone^ will be the same thing for any usb mic with a jack on the bottom

i open steelseries gg to change the color
but when i save, the wheel stops working again
so i did another factory reset
and repeat
but why does the wheel stop working when i change the color of the keyboard?
also this happened recently everything was fine till like yesterday
ive had the keyboard for about a month
if anybody has an answer, please ping me @tender rapids!
I recently gotten a Prime Wireless mouse in mid June and now it doesn't move the cursor on screen. All the buttons still work just the sensor is messed up. I sent in a Ticket on the Steelseries Website (Where I got the mouse) 3 days ago and still haven't gotten a response back. Anything I could do to fix it or wait till they respond? It was fine and was playing Splitgate with it then it died and I charged it for about 15min and that's when it stopped working. Please ping me or DM me if you can help. I've tried restarting the PC and factory reseting the mouse so far with no change.
Has anyone experienced getting a wrong RMA promo code? any way to reopen a ticket? Whenever I try to open a new ticket, it autocloses instantly
so when i use the clip feature, it has a delay from audio to action. i will hear it happen and then like a second later, it actually happens, is there a way to fix that?
Hey, I just got the 2019 arctis 3 headsets but when I plug them in I can only here sound from the left ear and nothing from the right ear. Does anyone know how I could fix this?
Hello everyone
I just purchased arctis 9x wireless for Xbox
They have bad connection issues, as you know
Went on your website and tried trouble shooting
I have peeled back the ear cushion and reset. Complete reset on Xbox without deleting games and apps, and all sorts of other stuff
Does anyone know of a solution?
My modem is hard wired to my Xbox about 8 ft from me. Xbox is approximately 4 feet from with an external hard drive USB 3.0 . Laptop is about 2 ft from me.
I have had the rig 800 lx, lsx35, and those worked excellent no problem, and had more range & battery life
It bothers my because I just spent $200 on it, and they are very comfortable & produce great quality audio. My friends tell me that it sounds worse though, and now I have these hitching and intermittent clicking and cutting out, quite often, like a lot
Please help
so i saved a gif on my oled display, and it doesnt show up, it only shows a picture, how do i fix that?
So for anyone who was following my predicament with my Arctis 9x, I was having issues getting the bluetooth to stay connected to my computer. Stays connected to my phone just fine without dropping over the course of several hours, but will shut off after 15 minutes with both integrated bluetooth and bluetooth dongle. This is extended to about two and a half hours if I move the xbox controller it is paired to off of the xbox and on to the computer, but still shuts off after a couple hours. I bought an Xbox adapter for my PC to see if I could get the same effect, but no success.
Unfortunately, it looks like I'll be shelving these and going back to my Astros until Steelseries releases a bluetooth firmware correction so they will stop turning off with a bluetooth connection to the computer. Please note, all this was tried after contacting SS support through the ticketing and having them tell me that they had no idea why the headset would shut off intermittently. Good luck, everyone.

Dedicated software is often better. So at least give it a try. IDK What SS GG could bring in particular

Hello, I was wondering how I am able to monitor my Spotify music on my oled-screen. When I go into Steelseries Engine, click on engine then apps. I scroll through but cant seem to find Spotify there.
Did this happen to me in 14 month, how have same problem?
it was removed a while ago because it was too taxing on the api not sure if a new version is in the works or not
Well i got a apex pro and my M, spacebar and one arrow key is sticky
Jo jo jo
yea i got something similar
Leuk
Like idk if i can just throw them in water since its a apex pro
i was just typing heard a clack and now my g has a weird crunch to it
Cause like what about the actuation
its definitely not waterproof so no
you can wash switches tho
as long as you dont get any water in the core your mostly fine
you can try but from what i've seen that kills the rgb
ohh yeah totally forgot
yikes
Hi does anyone else have a problem with glichy leds on the apex 3 and know how to fix it? It really iratating.
apex pro?
Would a store be able to do it lol
How would I do it?
You might be able to but it could also use a proprietary mounting system.
You can desolder and replace the switches on the apex 7 at least, as long as you clip the switch legs, it uses a 3 pin PCB.
can’t replace switches on the apex 3 it’s a membrane
ye ik
you cant get replacement omnipoints unfortunately
and other switches wont work on the apex pro
(except of course for the non omnipoint switches)
@jolly patrolnot really any way the repair the board unfortunately or i would've done it with mine
if its a hardware failure you might be able to get a replacement from support
tkl or regular size?
tkl
try the razer huntsman tournament edition
guys
my mute button on my arctis pro doesnt mute anymore it's activating the lights on and off but doesnt mute

Can someone help me regarding the MSI GT70 if anyone has any knowledge of it
I am attempting to find the engine as I believe it should be built in to my computer, the laptops keyboard is by SteelSeries, I'm trying to find out if the engine is on my pc in the first place, if not I have already downloaded the Steelseries Engine 3, but have had no luck in figuring out how to get it to connect to my computer and/or have it pop up even that it exists.
When I looked it up if it was possible to change the color of my keyboard and a few other things, it said it was possible for an MSI laptop, I just needed the engine it said, but I have no idea what I'm doing or if it even is compatible for my laptop because I can't find anything on it.
@jolly patrolyou could also try using some isopropy alcohol and leaving it to dry overnight without it plugged in
that might fix it
Does anyone body know where the prime black ice mouse is in stock
Lol is it still in stock at game stop
Anyone here knows the reason why I can't control my headset through the application?

Hello! I tried to download a firmware update for my stratus xl, but when I double checked it was for windows 7 and 8 only. It never started though, so I downloaded engine and the update worked.

Is there a way to get rid of it?

Hi, can somebody help me with my Arctis 3 Microphone. It's not working 😦
no one knows hahah:)
Hello, I have a little problem 😅
I recently bought an ARCTIS PRO WIRELESS and encountered a small problem. The base of the headset is connected to my pc via usb, so that gives me two audio sources, one of them allows 7.1 sound but it also crashes the audio engine of my pc. I searched the internet for a solution but no answer. Do you perhaps have an idea of the cause? (I just bought the helmet it is barely 1 days old, received yesterday)
Does anybody actually ever respond here?
sure
Does the arctis pro and pro wireless have the same volume wheel? The clicky one that you can press in
@heady quiver no the arctis pro is not clicky. It scrolls up to a point and stops and down to a point and stops. That's it
I received my arctis pro wireless today and can't seem to get it to put out any sound. I know all my PC settings are correct but when I try to use the headset it rapidly says it's disconnecting and reconnecting and plays no sound. I tried making the default the receiver but that says it's playing sound but I can't hear anything. I'm very confused. Do I have a faulty device or is something just not set up correctly
Have you tried connecting with a cable or bluetooth?
So its the same as on the arctis 7 and below
only the pro wireless has the infinite spinning?
Thank you so much btw
i believe so. I've had the arctis pro and the arctis 7 and they both had the same iirc
no problem. i'll try the blue tooth and cable but if those options work then there is still something wrong with the standard connection
For sure
why does all other audio disappear when i join a discord call
like game audio, music, browser, etc.
i have a arctis 3 bluetooth
Why is my artis 7 not working it connects but is really delayed audio and is horrible mic quality
I’ve resorted to going back to my artis 5 over it
Hello
on Mac after downloading GG
i cant find this folder, i copy and paste and i cant see nothing HEELP
Well where did you install the engine? If you installed it on another drive besides C (the one your OS is on) then you'll need to find it on that drive
wydm?
Hi all, just got an arctis 3 headset. Connecting with the 4-pole 3.5mm connector should allow me to use both the headset and the mic included, right? My laptop only has a single headset input jack.

I just got my Arctis 7 an hour ago.
It cannot connect via USB
SteelSeries GG does not recognize it
I tried it on 3 different PCs
one of them said "Arctis 7 Bootloader" was found when plugged in but nothing happened afterwards
So when i try to change the scroll wheel color to colorshift on my Rival 710 this comes up: (pls help)
anyone?..
Try a factory reset, but if it's not a software issue it may well just be a faulty LED. In which case consider RMAing it if it's worth your time.
anyone here who can't also pair their Arctis Pro Wireless to the base transmitter?

Hey guys, one of the key on my keyboard is not lighting up with the right colour. would this have something to do with the recent steel series gg update? or is there a place where I can download the previous version of the software?
another thing how to know its charging now or no as also in GG i cant know coz its showing remaining only
Sure, there is third party software you can use
please do give me 😄
I'll shoot you the link
When will it be available?
giovnn.com,Are the SteelSeries products on this website authorized?
When i edit something and go on Save it doesnt save. When i restart the editor can i choose 3 things reseting it doing an new konfi and overwrite it but nothing's makes an different its still the same before doing anything
i discovered a big bug which causes potential battery drain with MSI laptop caused directly by the current GG software. I tested SSE 3.19, and it does not occur with it. any way to keep the SSE3 from updating to GG?
the bug is that the mystic light (cover RGB LED's) blue color stays partially lit with GG, even when set to disable profile. even when the unit is off. I tested and this does not occur with SSE3
guess i should open a ticket then.....
bro thats dirtier then my toilet
My steelseries arctis 5 chat output sounds like that, any idea why ?
Only digital connections are supported in engine
I already tried unplugging and plugging again, many times
and it only happens on the chat output, not the game output
Ty
figures.... after i leave people respond but, not too my question
ah.
well have people figured out a way to intentionally prevent upgrades from SSE3 to GG?
the issue doesn't occur with SSE3
You can find the original download file and then disable auto updates I guess?
which rules out hardware ,alfunctions
i have the SSE3 3.19 setup files, but it keeps upgrading to GG once i install the software
there really isn't a way to stop the upgrade.
disable wifi? Haven't tried that myself
lol
disabling wifi isn't really a feasible option
anyone know the IP address for the update server? i could block the IP address to prevent the upgrade
that i know how to do. i just need the address to 'plug-in'
the issue is really annoying becuase it causes battery drain
I'd just make a ticket
wish SS had a phone number i could call for support. i find it easier to talk to a live person
i just finished making a ticket with both images attached. hopefully will get a solution....
i just made a ticket but one of yall might be able to help
i just copped myself some arctis 1's and im loving them so far although im trying to download the software but it wont work since its defaulting to a drive thats full
i just wanna know how to change what drive it installs to
arctis 1s don't have engine support
because they connect through 3.5mm jack
no arctis 1s are wireless
well, arctis 1 wireless is wireless
That's a different product
well my bad i got the arctis 1 wireless
When installing it should ask you where you want to install
been thinking a while about getting the arctis pro+Game DAC to replace my creative Sound Blaster Recon3D omega Wireless setup. the headset suffered a common structural failure. how does the Game DAC compare to the Recon3D USB unit? the Recon3D was fully functional sound card in a external form. it had a quad core processor and all the bells and whistles you would expect from an internal hardware based sound card of the time. so. what about the Game DAC?
I noticed with the Recon3D that sounds were played that never appeared on the internal sound of my system. would it be the same with the Game DAC?
Hard to compare them without having used your unit too
hmmm.... well what about the hardware spec side of things?
is it as capable as the Recon3D (USB)
i really don't want to be purchasing something that is a step down, you know?
sooooo any ideas?
oh... also does the does the unit support EAX for older games that support it
also does the Arctis Pro+game dac includes a program to restore 3D sound for pre-vista games?
Not officially
something similar to creative's Alchemy software
but there is a solution?
is there somewhere i can go that will give me the hardware details of the Game DAC, so i can compare them to the Recon3D?
i have v1.0 of the recon3d which support THX
not the later versions
My steelseries arctis 5 chat output sounds like this
I already tried unplugging and plugging again, many times
and it only happens on the chat output, not the game output
truthfully, if my recon3d headset had not failed, i would not even be considering replacing it.
I just got a pc and I'm haaving a hard ass time connecting my arctis 9x headset and I need some help if possible
i suppose i could just take out the wireless card on the recon3d unit, get a arctis pro, and plug that into the headphone port on the recon3d....
Either plug the headset into a USB 3.0 port or if there isn't one available/doesn't fix the issue, go into the sound control panel and change the Chat quality from DVD to CD and that should clear it up
So change it to CD like I said
well for now it isn't bugged, but I'm 100% sure it'll bug again
so right now I can't test it
thank you for the fix Alan, i appreciate it
I had the same issue with my Arctis 5s and changing the quality fixed it permanently, but when I started using them with my laptop plugged into a USB 3.0 port I was able to have both Game and Chat at their highest quality and they both worked perfectly, but when I tried them in a USB 2.0 port again the chat output went back to being terrible
So at least with my headset, USB 2.0 ports just aren't able to give it enough bandwidth to be able to run both outputs at the same time on their highest quality. The chat would only bug out when playing a game and being in a Discord call at the same time
yeah so I have spotify on chat and youtube on game, when I play a music alone it's fine but when I start the video it starts being terrible
but I only have 3.2 usb ports

Hey guys I owned a set of arctis Pro + gamedac for like 8 months but they had an issue so I returned them for a new set, since I plugged the new set in no body on discord can hear my mic.... Changed no settings just plugged in... Weird because I usually get complimented on how clear and crisp it is, now nobody can here me.... Any ideas logo

hi guys my problem is i have an steelseries arctis 9x but in windows options stand music conected but dont voice also i only can hear but dont speak over the micro
Does anyone know what the f24 key is on an Apex Pro? Thanks in advance
Arctis 7. Games sometime stop responding when inserting the charging cable. Also think i need a new cable cuz the attachnment adapter thing to the headset appears bent and i keep hearing the connect and disconnect sound when i move around in my chair. Brb
Ps, i been using this headset for well over a year or two now and this problem has been around for as long as i can remember
Uh idk iff this channel has to be about steelseries but my friend got a virus and he can't reset his pc
Can't do a new clean windows install?
I could tell him to try it with the ISO but doesn't he have to re-activate windows than?
The license associates itself with your device's hardware, so should be fine
I keep trying to get this steel series GG app to detect my headphones (arctic 5) but it refuses to. I could mess with the setting before the new GG app came out. does anyone have any suggestions?
ill offer a frog to whoever helps me :)
Would the RefreshWindowsTool work
Its made by microsoft
May well do, might as well try anyway
my steelseriesgg download from chrome is stuck at 198mb and not letting me goddamn open it pls halp
Does the same happen for any other download
nvm the software just sits at 100% for a full 30 minutes apparently
it literally just opened
bruvb
thought the download was broken turns out the softwares just a little iffy
should probably look into that
coz it doesnt happen for any other downloads coz i thought it was chrome and checked
I was considering buying the Arctis 5 for my Xbox One but I have 2 questions.
- I’m aware you have to use the 3.5mm jack adapter as Xbox doesn’t support a USB connection for a mic, but does party and game chat (microphone) work even with the 3.5mm jack?
- Does the 3.5mm adapter lower sound quality noticeably or dramatically? I know it doesn’t allow RBG to work but i’m not worried about that.
If the mic doesn’t work or the sound quality decreases on Xbox, does anyone have any other recommendations for 75 - 125 USD?
on a scale from 1-100 how important is the firmware update for my aerox 3 wireless
because I cannot update it for the life of me
steelseries gg is stuck on the blue/purple loading circle, and i've already deleted and redownloaded it(worked once immediately after redownload, but only that one time) with mac os
Hello I RMA'D my mouse. A Rival 650. If I get a coupon is it 105 euro to spend on every mouse or do I have to spend it on the same mouse? Otherwise I want to get 105 discount of the Prime Wireless and pay 35 euro myself
I have tried multiple times now to search up why programs crash when i put something into my usb, such as my headset and everytime i get some bulls**t about crashes pc. My pc doesn't crash, programs/games sometime do and not all the time but some games just crash more frequently than others and i don't know how to fix this
I won't be able to fix this unless there is someone out there who knows the cause and solution. Like am i suppose to get a program? New cable? New usb port (whatever that means) Reinstall something? My drivers are already up to date, this isn't a new problem
Same mouse
No to both
PLLLSSSSS HELP for some reason I have to click my mouse like 10 times just so i can shot my gun and i areready tired the cpi button I have a tormeant like 2 hours so help quick
And i presume you tested another mouse, right?
How old is this mouse?
Not too farfetched to say your mouse might be getting bad. This happened to me with my old mouse and happened with my old cheap $5 mouse. I'm now on my third after this started happening. Seems to have fixed the problem every time
I never found out how to "fix" the problem. Just had to buy a new mouse. If the problem happens a lot, it's a good idea to get used to using cheaper a cheaper model
oh
You say you have to click many times in order for an action to happened, right? That problem happened to me as well
yeah like 5 times
Your case seems more severe than mine. How long has this been going on?
3 days
For me, the problem were more bearable than other times, implying that whatever the problem is, there may be a hardware or connection issue between your mouse. If you haven't found the answer through google, it's best to get a cheap 5 or 10 dollar mouse and try if the problem fixes itself
Many cheap 5 or 10 dollar mice don't work for you?
My first mouse was like $100 ish. My fathers old one. Got a cheap $5, used for a long time, it started messing up too after many months. Now i have maybe like a $50. I honestly don't know the price
Viper mini it is. Around 30-50$
No idea
im using the arctis 5 headset if i mute the mic still stays active but is alot quieter how could i fix this problem ?
Meaning no audio quality loss and the mic works?
you won't get the chatmix as far as i know, and you won't get the eq, but audio quality won't change
I don't see any issue with that
technically it should work but just to be safe dont use anything with fast charging and use the included cable
Sorry last question, chat mix isn’t the actual microphone right it’s just the mixing options, and I can still talk?
yes
perfect thank you so much been looking everywhere for a review of it on xbox
wish xbox would just use usb connections for audio
so I can use the arctics 9 with 3.5mm and usb cable directly to pc?
without the dongle i am trying to say
Well yeah but not quite sure why you would buy a wireless headset then plug it into your PC, but it would work that way
I own a steelseries rival 300s and the wire is damaged
i feel like the sensitivity decreases (probably because it doesnt receive the power well)
can i replace the wire somehow?
You probably could, if that's really the issue
Any ideas what the APW latency is?
Steelseries states a fixed 16ms
Rtings went from saying 15ms to 115ms
I saw, people have said it doesn't feel like 115 tho
Hopefully they re-test and we can take a best of 3 average
I do doubt it’s 115ms tbh. That’s Bluetooth levels.
Surely rtings didn't call it from a single test in the first place
But not sure what's up with that
They changed the way they measure it and do a 3 round average now.
I’m guessing it was 2 runs around 15ms. Then one run bugged and got something obscenely high which screwed the average
it is, 100%
but do i need some specific materials or tools
i'm a bit lost
You can buy a cable kit, should be as easy as swapping out the jst connector
Oh shoot
Sigh
Sure
Would razor keycaps fit on my apex 3?
No, at least not any that fit an MX stem
Wdym
The apex 3 uses proprietary keycaps
unlikely that you'll find any
"The Apex 3 uses proprietary keycaps that cannot be removed or replaced"
More of a certainty
I can easely remove and put my keycaps back on
I'm just quoting steelseries
K
They probably aren't as durable as regular MX stems, so yes you can remove them for cleaning and whatnot, they just don't recommend it, plus the fact that the keyboard doesn't use standard keycap system so finding any good quality replacements would be difficult
Alright, would regular razer caps work on it?
No
Ok
anyone else having problems configuring their mouse?
can someone help me connect my mouse wirelessly?
Don't randomly ping mods or staff
You can try plugging the headset in via the 3.5mm adapter just to make sure the headphone themselves work. After that try different USB ports on the PC, reinstall the headset drivers themselves, and factory reset the headset. If none of those things work make a ticket through #official-support for official help
Find the headset listed in device manager, select it, right click, uninstall drivers, unplug the headset, shut down the PC, plug the headset back in, turn the computer on
I'm using the arctis pro wireless on mobile, but when swapping between different apps with sound on, it mutes the volume for less than a second then brings the volume back up again. Is there any way to stop this?
I keep trying to get this steel series GG app to detect my headphones (arctic 5) but it refuses to. I could mess with the setting before the new GG app came out. does anyone have any suggestions?
Any clue?
Steelseries GG just completely grey
Ran as admin, restarted the program, but still nothing when I try to click moments
what version are you on
you probably need to download a new version, this is a bug with older versions
Ait I will try. For some reason, checking for updates never crosses my mind as Im so used to automatic updates
I'll turn off beta atleast
Smooth, thanks
not to brag but
Im just meme'ing
im not sure if the issue is being looked at but, i cant find a fix for the system monitoring on my oled display it turns on for a couple seconds and then turns off to the main sceen.
it says this , i installed it like 20 times and it still says this
Wich is for a qwerty netherlands keybord
Dutch layout isn't really any different. Up to you for English or UK english; preference between ansi or iso.
