Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Sensor Debug --> ISA Sensor Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. You may need to enable the statusbar from mainmenu / View first. BTW, does your Windows user have administrator privileges?

Under Win7 64-bit you may have to install the following security patch to make AIDA64 work properly: KB3033929. That became necessary because we had to transition from the old kernel driver to the latest and much more secure EV (Extended Validation) kernel driver with SHA2 digital signature. Regards, Fiery

The mentioned new AIDA64 beta update is already available for download at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta

I'd just keep using the drive with HDSentinel monitoring it in the background. I use HDSentinel on my main machine, even though I have no HDDs or SSDs with such pending sectors (yet)

I don't think such an issue makes your driver eligible for a replacement or repair. It's not a re-allocated sector (a.k.a. bad sector), but only a pending sector. You could call it a "suspicious sector" that may or may not become a bad sector. What I would do is install HDSentinel and keep it running, and configure its alerting system to warn you about any further issues that may come up. That pending sector may mean nothing, or may be a "teaser" of worse things to come. It's hard to tell which one, at this time.

AIDA64 warns you about the fact that there's a single pending sector on your HDD. You may want to check it out with another software like HDSentinel as well: http://hdsentinel.com Regards, Fiery

The main problem is that since Windows 8 shutdown doesn't mean an actual shutdown, but more like a low-power sleep state. With the AIDA64 build you have installed you can only have the right UpTime statistics if you disable Fast Startup in Control Panel / Power Options / System Settings. But, we've just implemented a fix to get around that issue, so please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/latesta64xebeta Let me know how it works Thanks, Fiery

Changes may or may not be small. You cannot possibly expect to have the same OpenCL driver for a particular GPU architecture intact for 3 or 12 months. And results obtained with a specific OpenCL driver should only be compared with results obtained with the same driver. So when the OpenCL driver gets updated for a GPU, we would have to re-run the benchmarks and update the reference results database.

Several hours is best. You should test all cores at once.

As I've stated above, AIDA64 does not explicitly load that DLL, so we cannot make it not load it.

We currently don't know of a generic Windows API call to read or detect such property for a network adapter. Do you know of a Windows software that can show you that information? Regards, Fiery

It usually means the CPU is overheating. Throttling percentage is read directly from Intel processors, and they reflect the amount of overheating the CPU is suffering from. As long as it's under 10%, it's not a big deal, and could be normal for certain Haswell and Broadwell processors.

Thank you, we'll fix that issue in the next AIDA64 beta update due in a few days from now. Regards, Fiery

Yes, you should close other programs, since they may interfere with AIDA64 Stability Test, or eat up too much CPU cycles that would be better spent on running stress test threads. But, after having a few hours spent with AIDA64 Stability Test running, and getting no errors, you may want to start opening other applications as well, to see if it makes a difference. Sometimes the computer locks up or throws a BSoD quicker with a more diverse workload than with a single very demanding workload. Regards, Fiery

No, I'm afraid AIDA64 doesn't support plugins. If you can build a DLL and send us the interface (API) documentation, we can pull the data from your DLL. We do the same already with Fraps for example. As for transparency, no, it's not possible to make a fully transparent or opaque graph. But you can disable the graph background, frame and grid, so only the graph itself will be drawn. It would effectively mean a transparent background for the graph area.

GPGPU benchmark results could change by simply updating the video driver, since companies like AMD, Intel and nVIDIA keep fine-tuning and optimizing their OpenCL driver all the time. So it wouldn't make much sense to add reference results, since we would have to update them everytime a new video driver is rolled out -- which is basically twice a week

64KB is very low, I don't think your device (or any other Samsung SPF device for that matter) would expect that small of an image. 256KB sounds more realistic.

It's not a good idea to use AIDA64 and AI Suite in the same time, since AI Suite lacks the necessary synchronization interface to avoid collision between it and other monitoring software like AIDA64. And when AI Suite and another monitor software try to access the same EC (Embedded Controller) register, any wild issue could happen (system lockup, system restart, BSoD, etc).

I'm afraid AIDA64 is right there, your CPU has no SGX support. Sandra may just have a bug there Check it with HWiNFO too, it reports the same as AIDA64. Regards, Fiery

I'm not an expert at overclocking, but maybe someone else can chime in and give you some pointers

What motherboard do you have, and which Windows version do you have installed? On certain systems AIDA64 issues ACPI calls to measure CPU temperature, but it shouldn't cause DPC latency spikes. As for wdf01000.sys, no, AIDA64 doesn't call that driver directly. But there may be a low-level API that AIDA64 uses, and that API may call the mentioned driver.

Did you use the Strike7API.dll file from the Win32 folder of the Strike7 SDK ZIP package?

If you keep the same BCLK and increase the multiplier, then your CPU core clock will be even more overclocked. So yes, such a move could well cause a stability issue that AIDA64 System Stability Test may reveal. Regards, Fiery

AIDA64 doesn't add any features to your phone. Regards, Fiery

Thank you, we will fix the issue in the next AIDA64 app update due in a few days from now.
