LED Strip Question

Hi there, recently bought a custom build and it came with 2 LED strips surrounding the interior of the case.

It's connected to an IR controller like this:

My problem is, that when the PC is switched on the 2 led strips flicker blue then immediately shut off.

The rest of the case fans LEDs are fine and PC works perfectly otherwise.

It didn't come with the IR remote control (24 button one) so I am unable to verify if that's my only problem! I did buy a control but it's a 44 button one so don't know if that makes a difference.

Anyone with experience point me in the right direction?

Surely they are plugged in correctly to the PSU as they power on when PC is first switched on?

What could the issue be?

It's a small issue but driving me nuts! :(
 
Maybe the PWM controller for the LED strips is faulty. Hard to say if you don't have a method of controlling it.

Try a few TV remotes as my LG one causes mine to change colour and stuff. Maybe you'll get lucky.

I've only got the 44key controller so don't know if it is compatible with the 24 key one.
 
Can you upload another picture of the controller? How is it connected in the case? Molex connector? Sounds like the controller is faulty to me
