after having some issues with my igpu (7800X3D), i decided to disable it in uefi.
i’m running win10 (22h2, 19045.4651).
as for the description what i was seeing:
- i disabled the igpu in uefi
- reboot
- crash of OpenRGB upon starting up/scanning devices
- i deleted %appdata%/OpenRGB
- i ran the .exe as admin
- as soon as the scan went over the gpu (gigabyte gtx1080 ti aorus master) the programm CTD’d again
- disabling all detectors in OpenRGB.json allowed me to launch the app again
- in the settings i was able to reenable the mobo detection without issues and passed rescanning the devices
- in the settings reenabling all gigabyte device detections triggered the CTD upon rescanning again
at least it was able to log something to that point:
what i noticed in the logs is the following weird message:
for some reason my mobo (an ASUS TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS WIFI) is being identified under gigabyte:
7325 |Debug: [Gigabyte RGB Fusion 2 SMBus] FAILED - 'TUF GAMING X670E-PLUS WIFI' was not found in the JSON list. Do NOT enable if this is a USB based board.
to me it seems that disabling the igpu somehow has messed up the enumeration of the devices/ids/slots, which led to the mobo being somehow wrongfully pushed up to the gpu slot, or something along the lines.
edit: before any questions arise, i’m running version 0.8, but upgrading to version 0.9 yielded no change in behaviour, which is why i downgraded again.
narrowed it down to the “Gigabyte GTX1080ti 11G” detector. all except that one can be left enabled. as soon as i add that one for my graphics card into the mix, openrgb crashes.
the confusing part here is that only after disabling the igpu this happens. if i reenable the igpu, things are back to normal with all detectors being able to correctly identify all their components.
any idea why that might be?
