About the CPU utilization measurement issue, please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme available at: https://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta You need to activate (tick) the last option on the AIDA64 / main menu / Preferences / Stability page called Windows 11 CPU utilization measurement workaround. Let me know if it helps to obtain more realistic CPU utilization measurements.

Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> System Debug --> USB Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic, or attach the results as a TXT file to your post. You may need to enable status bar in AIDA64 / main menu / View first. Thanks, Fiery

What store was it? You can send it to me in private message too. Please note that several criminals run websites where they sell non-genuine (pirate) licenses for well respected software for incredibly low prices. Sometimes 1/10th of list price. We never sell our licenses that cheap, and we don't have any resellers who would be able to push the price that low. So when the deal is too good to be true, you should know what you're getting.

Let's clear the air here. This is not a bug in our software. It's a bug of the operating system. I hope you're banging on Microsoft's door at least with the same ferocity than on our door. The fact that Microsoft was unable to fix this bug of their operating system for months now means something. We're still unable to reproduce the issue on our own test systems. Trust me, we've tried quite a few hardware platforms with Win11, but none has issues about CPU usage reporting. I have no idea what particular bit of hardware or maybe firmware setting that triggers the issue to come up. Usually we're hesitant to implement a workaround for an OS bug without being able to reproduce the issue. If we cannot reproduce it, it's very difficult to validate and QC the workaround. The nature of this issue is also very fundamental and affects multiple features of AIDA64. Therefore, we have to be extra careful to alter the existing code _if_ we cannot reproduce the issue and then check how the new code works on both older systems (without the OS bug) and the new ones (with the OS bug present). But, our current projection is that we'll be able to roll out a new beta build with an optional workaround in a few days from now. It will have to be optional unless we can "catch" the OS bug in our labs and have a proper test environment built around it.

Do you have a valid, genuine AIDA64 product key that you've purchased in our Online Store?

Thank you! Meanwhile, here's a fix for the sensor issues related to your ASRock motherboard: https://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta

Thank you! I'm afraid the classic Dell SMI based sensor access fails to work on your system. I'm afraid we have no idea how to access sensor readings on your computer

AIDA64 does support both Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2. What motherboard do you have in your Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 based systems?

The issue has already been fixed in the latest AIDA64 app update of v1.90.

The issue will be fixed in the next AIDA64 beta update.

I'm afraid that's the case, yes

Thank you! Do you have all available Windows hotfixes/patches applied?

Yes, thank you! The issue will be fixed in the next AIDA64 beta update.

Thank you! Is Asus' tool capable of measuring fan speed in RPM as well, or only duty cycle percentage?

Thank you for the dumps! Was the external fan spinning when you've made those dumps? If it was stopped, can you please repeat those dumps when the fan is spinning?

So you mean at full (maxed out) CPU utilization AIDA64 shows 0 to 4% only? Thank you for the dump. Can you please confirm you've got 4 fans connected and spinning?

Please avoid posting a single issue into multiple topics. I'll send you updates in your other topic. This topic is closed.

That would be bending the truth And also, I'm afraid the Correction module wouldn't work properly with such logic since at 0% it couldn't substract 1% and display -1%, that wouldn't make much sense.

You need to set the minimum and maximum values for the bars to achieve the looks you're after. You can also set 3 intermediate limits in between the minimum and maximum values to make the bar change its colour depending on the current value.
