Please right-click on the Overclock page in the left page menu --> Quick Report --> Plain text. Scroll down to the end of the report, and copy-paste the section called "Debug - Video BIOS" into this topic. DMI means motherboard model is extracted from the DMI block. You can see the full DMI information on the Computer / DMI page.

It's quite odd. Please let us know more about your system configuration: 1) Windows version, 32-bit or 64-bit? 2) Motherboard and CPU model? 3) Video card(s) model? 4) Any external (USB, FireWire or eSATA) storage devices connected? We'll try to reproduce the issue on a similar system in our labs.

The card reader issue may be caused by a firmware glitch in your card reader. You can try disabling the two RAID-related options in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Stability, that should fix that issue. Make sure to restart Windows after altering that option.

You need to disable ULPS to make AIDA64 recognize and handle both your GPUs properly. You can disable ULPS by scanning the Registry (using e.g. REGEDIT.EXE) for all occurences of EnableUlps, and set all values of that to zero (0). Please note that you need to restart Windows after disabling ULPS, and you need to do that procedure after every Catalyst upgrades.

The values are shown and configured in milliseconds since AIDA64 v4.20. One second equals to 1000 milliseconds. Regards, Fiery

Shifting only one pixel would make the graph look quite odd. We've done test runs with it, and the best visual feedback is by using 2-pixel step rate.

Have you tried to run AIDA64 v4.20 after a Windows reboot?

We've done some test runs, and the only way we've found to reproduce the issue is removing the AIDA_BENCH32.DLL and AIDA_BENCH64.DLL files from AIDA64 installation folder. Please verify if you've got those files there. If any of them is missing or looks corrupted (e.g. too small file size, they both should be over 2 MBytes in size), then please try to reinstall AIDA64 v4.00.2800.

1) What motherboard, CPU and video card do you have? 2) Are you running Windows 7 SP1 64-bit? 3) Have you tried to restart Windows after the last upgrade of AIDA64? Thanks, Fiery

Please try to restart Windows, and see if it helps.

Can you please try to uninstall the mentioned ASRock software and see if it makes a difference? That software may have a background process or service that is still running, even when you opted for the application to not be auto-launched at Windows bootup. Also, make sure to use the latest AIDA64 Extreme beta release available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild2770x1wr9gzpktzip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade.

Turbo can make a big difference in operating temperatures. As for G42 vs N56JR, unfortunately Haswell is this kind of a beast, and you cannot really do anything about its behavior and properties. It can run at very low clocks consuming almost no power, so that's good for overall mobile application -- but under heavy load it unfortunately runs hot, that's the drawback.

You can untick (disable) the network traffic related items in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / External Applications.

Intel Haswell processor based notebooks, ultrabooks and small form factor PCs tend to run at very high temperatures (over 90 Celsius) and throttle under heavy system load. It's absolutely normal for such systems. Of course in case the situation gets worse, or your computer turns off under heavy load, then you need to check the cooling of your notebook, e.g. if the exhaust ports are clogged up with dirt. But I suppose your notebook is quite new, so it's not a problem there (yet). Regards, Fiery

1) Do you have any other sensor monitoring, tweaking or overclocking software installed? Either made by ASRock or a 3rd party? 2) Does your motherboard use a X79, Z77 or Z87 chipset?

It doesn't make much sense to find the "where" in that situation. Even if it fails 1 second after starting the stress test, or 10 hours after, the system is still unstable, and you gotta make sure to fix it up. Regards, Fiery

I've sent you a private message about this.

That's still not something that would be related to AIDA64. The only thing changed since Build 2700 is that we've added a few more icons to AIDA64. If that makes your Windows installation acting silly, then it's quite odd, but not necesserily the fault of AIDA64

We do not have plans to import data from Radeon Pro or RTSS.

It is coming, in a few days

Yes, but only via Fraps. You need to install and configure Fraps, and then you can add a new item named Fraps to your LCD or OSD in AIDA64. Regards, Fiery

The only thing I can spot there is the HID UPS call. If you don't have a smart UPS, then please disable HID UPS sensor support in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Stability. If you do have such a UPS, then try to disable the same option to see if it makes the thread creation error go away.

It looks as if something went south in the NT kernel, and not in the user mode modules like AIDA64.EXE or NTDLL.DLL. Please try to restart Windows, and see if it fixes it up.

If you start AIDA64 as a standard user (not an administrator), then no UAC prompt will be displayed, and AIDA64 will run in limited mode, since it has no access to its low-level features.
