Hello Everyone

I just recently put together a new build and have run into what I think is driver problems with my new NZXT Kraken x61. On my first boot I noticed that there was a failed install on a driver labeled "Asetek USB...". I at first thought it was nothing important. Later in, I noticed that NZXT's CAM (the cooler controller) did not recognize my cooler. When I searched around in my device manager I found a missing driver called "690LC" and when I looked this driver up, sure enough it was related to the Kraken. It really does suck because at the moment the NZXT website is down (of course) and all the other sites have proven to be not very helpful. SO, if you have ANY solutions, I would love to hear them. (Also yes, I have tried the Antec ChillControl and it also cannot find my cooler).

Thanks Guys!

You need to install the 690LC driver but windows cannot find it. What I did was went into the list of possible windows drivers and found the Antec CC USB driver and installed that as it is the correct driver to place for the 690LC.
