To set up a battlestation with custom lighting across SteelSeries devices, open GG and select the Engine tab. From there, select the desired device and open a new window to see if your device supports RGB features. Personalize your battlestation with custom lighting across SteelSeries devices.
To sync the RGB lighting of your chosen SteelSeries peripherals, use the built-in presets library, which includes animated lightings and game-specific effects. PrismSync is the SteelSeries version of MSI’s MysticLight, allowing you to sync all light effects of your devices that support PrismSync.
If your SteelSeries peripherals do not work with Mystic Light, try using in-game events like ammo, health, and cooldowns to trigger real-time illumination changes in GameSense compatible apps. However, it is possible that your SteelSeries peripherals will work with the Mystic Light Sync software.
To set the Mystic Light in place, click the “Mystic Light” item in the Features Sets Tab and click the “Install” icon. To manage RGB settings, download and install SteelSeries’s GG Software, navigate to Engine, select Prism, and customize your RGB settings.
However, the SteelSeries Engine 3 software does not work as intended, as health, research, and map lights do not work as intended. The Engine controls illumination and effects on premium MSI notebooks, motherboards, and monitors.

I’m an idiot, I’ve been looking for a reason all day, it turned out that my friend pressed the fn + “dimming” keyboard shortcut (in the hope that this button is responsible for the brightness of the screen) and as a result, I only now realized that it wasn’t a screen at all! A stone from the soul, but thanks anyway for a very useful article for many, I imagine what it was like for you to see your favorite keyboard in colors again))
I’ve tried your solution several times, but when I install the original GG version and go back to Program files to link the driver file in the SteelSeries folder, I can’t find any file by that name. On the other hand, before installing the original GG version, when I go into Program Files, I see the SteelSeries folder, but once I uninstall the keyboard in Device Manager, and install the SteelSeries GG, the Driver folder no longer appears. What do you suggest, please?
I have a different situation, the keyboard lighting goes dim with out warning, but still shows strange colors spaced over the keyboard. I found I have to use “Fn + – and + keys” to get the colors back to full color. PS I am using Steelseries software version GC 17.0.0. Plus running on windows 11 pro.
I have noticed that some keys on your keyboard are lit up differently and permanently even when it wasn’t supposed to be lit. Is it a normal thing after years of use? I have a MSI GE63 and some keys have a different color even when I select the same color for all keys. It ANNOYS ME TO DEATH. Is there any definitive solution to this? I got here looking for a solution to this problem but I guess your tutorial is to solve the lighting effects not working ( it still works for me at least …)
Hello I hope you can answer my question since I have contacted msi support and they only basically tell me to get the laptop to them. The problem that I have is like the rgb light are like kinda of bug and the light of only on some key turn on even if I disable the rgb function. Even restarting the pc still the same only those keys are on I have reinstalled everything even update the bios. Please help me I can’t even sleep even thinking about it
Hey, I have an msi gl65 leopard, I uninstalled the standard ps2 file rebooted and installed steel series but my keyboard still does not seem to change colors. Some keys are purple and some are red and the rest are blue, I tried all configurations but nothing seems to work and I jsut want to disable all the keyboard lights but no matter what I do some keys are still having red and purple lights, I tried decreasing the brightness of keys using fn+ but that did not work either, what can I do?
Hey I got a Cyborg 15 A12V laptop in march, ive tried many things like steelseries but it doesnt find my keyboard, im really hopeless and sick of having a lightblue keyboard ;-; Im hoping you can tell me if you think that it will work on my computer before I do all the steps because im really bad at technology but lovw gaming 🙂 thank you so much!
I have the same problem with you. Just like what you say in the last part of the article, some key light of my msi couldn’t work in a right way. But I just fix it two month ago, and the problem never apper until now. Before I fix it, almost about half keys wrong, and after I fixed, it just 3 keys couldn’t show green light. The method I used to fix my laptop is to change the keyboard. I bought a new msi laptop keyboard online and then exchenge the initial one. The reason why some lights couldn’t work in a right way I think is I dropped water on my laptop by accident. The water erode some electronic component. I hop this can help you to get the light on again. And it is hard to exchange because there are no course teach change keyboard on YT. If you have some questions, maybe I can give you some advices.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!! I tried to solve this problem on my laptop three years ago and nothing worked. I scored, and used only one backlight mode. Today I accidentally stumbled upon your article, and I managed to make the keyboard work properly again. I squeaked like a girl with joy. After 3 fucking years. Sorry for the crooked text, this is a Google translator. Thanks again, good man!!
Not sure if anyone else has had this issue but I did on my MSI GP75. It would start but get stuck loading. I uninstalled the program and went to steel series website and downloaded the newest version and installed that and stopped windows update from updating it. Fixed the issue and haven’t had any since. I’m guessing something’s wrong with ‘windows update’ version of the program. This may or may not help you but it’s definitely worth a shot.
I have an msi ge63 raider rgb rtx2080 When i first got windows (factory reset) the program worked properly, a couple of days later the steelseries said “not connected” on the msi per key rgb, although i also have mystic light and it works perfectly fine. I later tried uninstalling the driver, updating, installing older versions of steelseries, and doing combinations with these options. None of them worked and even worse, steelseries doesn’t even show the “msi per key rgb keyboard” option. I don’t know what to do and even though i am stuck with the best preset “disco” and have full control over the intensity of the lighting, i am still feeling out on the experimentation and customization that comes with the program. Do you know what to do? What if i simply applied the folder and files that comes with the msi per key rgb keyboard (although i couldn’t find anyone who has shared them)? Thanks
My MSI Dragonforce is telling me that my steelseries engine 3 is only using 2.2.0.0 where as 3.19.0 is the online version? I’ve done the Steelseries check and I’ve tried yours and to no luck, my laptop lights are still not working 🙁 This only happened after I my laptop updated to windows 11 on an auto update and I didn’t care or have it set to a factory reset stage…hard bummer
Hey thanks for the vid, was helpful. I have a GP76 Leopard and here’s what ended up working for me, though I’d suggest it only if the steps in the vid don’t work as it removes the SS keyboard driver temporarily: Uninstalled the PS/2 keyboard AND the driver when prompted. After restart SSE said keyboard was not connected. Went back to devices, right clicked new PS2 keyboard windows auto installed and hit update driver. It said it was up to date, however I then tried the “search for updated drivers on Windows Update” option and it found a newer PS/2 specific for steel series, did a restart for windows to update to that and it finally worked. Back to disco keys! 🪩
I use a GP62 Leopard Pro and I can’t find my steelseries keyboard under device manager>keyboard. 🙁 Game Center and Steel Series can’t detect my devices. The keyboard light has been set to solid red for 2 years now. I tried uninstalling and installing steel series and it still doesn’t work. I’m frustrated I cant have my RGB 🙁
Sadly this does not work for me 🙁 Maybe I should have tried this fix when i used to have win10 .. Now i updated it to w11… (But Ive had the freaking issue basically since buying the laptop 3 years ago. ) I even tried uninstalling the device – Human interfaces, where Steelseries is also listed.. And then I deleted all temp files aswell from device drivers etc.. But Nothing helps… WHY will MSI not fix this???! Absurde to pay huge amou nts of money for their laptop to get MORE but you get LESS … The laptop is totally useless for me in the dark … (But i know the hardware is not broken, since when i press FN, it goes red.. And half of the times after a reboot, the keyboard will flash promptly .. Or even animate with a rainbow or aqua fade effect … -_- ) … So clearly this is a software issue…
