In that folder I have a few items and folders...

FuseGL.exe
FuseGL_AutoUpdater_Log.txt
FuseGL Trace.txt

The version is good, and the files are good. I am reuploading the update. Maybe the update didn't get pushed properly. Testing it on my end in a clean folder, it works.

That newest update seems to be working for me.

Ok great. Do you see the big ugly white box and can you can cycle through?

Yep, and it cycles through as I click, and I can see the LEDs change with the new output. Now I'm trying to figure out how to edit this to make it simply monitor the digital port, and if port 0,0 is on display LowOn image, and if its off display LowOff, then for port 0,1 it would be MediumLowOn etc. I added those speeds in the section under Setup FanSpeed textures and ports but I think that just broke it. lol

In my setup I have each fan speed as a seperate button, and I have 1 button set to turn it all off. if that makes sense.

Just think it through. Adding to the Fan Speed enumeration is a great idea. But if you have 7 speeds and 7 buttons, you will need 7 FGLO inputs. I would tie all of the click events to a single method. Then have one spot with all your logic. It is the least efficient way of doing things, but conceptually the simplest. Instead of having one response for everybutton, you have 1 response for all the buttons.

Yeah, I think I have it added in 3 areas, I'll post my code below. Not sure if my error is in here somewhere, or in the xml file.

Um, not sure why it put the web address in for my image location, but its not pulling internet pics.

Can you post the cs file or put them in [ code ] tags. It is hard to read. You need to upload your images to a web hosting site like this: http://image-host.us/

The post the image in [ img ] tags.

Oh ok. Below are the images. and the code. the very bottom image is the overall look of my layout as a whole. I thought maybe you could get an idea of what I'm trying to do with that. Thanks for all your help! this is all very new to me, but I do want to learn how to do it.
