Thank you. There's definitely a special chip on your video card that may be responsible for providing the correct voltage readings. We'll try to find out what that chip might be, and implement support for it if possible.

1) Please copy-paste the full content of the Computer / Sensor page of AIDA64 into this topic. 2) Also, right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Sensor Debug --> ISA Sensor Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. Thanks, Fiery

If it crashes the Device Manager, that sounds like a slight issue in Marvell drivers to me...

We already did everything we could on our end...

In case the video adapter output shows artifacts, then my guess would be some sort of issue around the GPU. You can check other 3D benchmarks and stress tests (like 3DMark, Furmark), although most of them will not stress the video adapter to 100% like AIDA64 does Regards, Fiery

Thank you for your kind words and your support via the ROG and other forums. Regards, Fiery

We need two register dumps to investigate this issue. Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Video Debug --> ATI GPU Registers. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. Then right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Video Debug --> ATI SMBus Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. Thanks, Fiery

It's possible, but my hunch is that your notebook has no such slot.

That's true, but it's true for the whole computer, every components of it

Since all modern video adapters are equipped with self-protection against overheating, I wouldn't worry too much about the GPU being in danger -- unless of course you heavily increased the voltages. BTW, on nVIDIA cards the thermal protection mechanism watches the "GPU Diode" temperature.

If your card is equipped with a Nuvoton NCT77xx family sensor chip, then the both "GPU" temperature and "GPU Ambient" temperature are measured using that sensor chip. "GPU" temperature comes from regiser#01 of the sensor chip, while "GPU Ambient" comes from register#00. The 3rd reading (GPU Diode) is measured using the on-die (integrated) temperature diode of the GPU chip itself. Regards, Fiery

Thank you for the feedback

Make sure to upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Business Edition available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64businessbuild2250xwrcy2q1vbzip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Regards, Fiery

Thank you for the clarification.

Unfortunately it's not possible to detect the existence of the mSATA slot in mobile systems, so AIDA64 won't be able to show you such information

Thank you for the feedback. If you consider the audio issue a potential bug in AIDA64, then please let me know what items are missing from which page of AIDA64? Motherboard / Chipset page? Multimedia / HD Audio page? Or both pages?

AIDA64 has several features to let you use AIDA64 sensor readings in 3rd party applications. You can active those features in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / External Applications. Those features are of course compatible with both Windows 7 and Windows 8. Regards, Fiery

Thank you. While your video card is under load (not idling), please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Video Debug --> ATI GPU Registers. Copy-paste the results into this topic. Thanks, Fiery

I meant to find out whether it's only an appearance issue, and the icon still works fine -- but you already confirmed those Can you please check where the shortcut of the icon points to exactly? Is it C:\Program Files (x86)\FinalWire\AIDA64 Extreme Edition\aida64.exe ?

No idea... Probably only MSI knows.

Thank you. Unfortunately the GPU VRM reading provided by CHL8266 is invalid in both cases.

Thank you. Can you please try to enable both mentioned RAID options? Even when the controller is not running in RAID mode, those options may help to find the right code path for the SATA controller enumeration by AIDA64

Your card have 2 chips (Nuvoton and CHiL), and they provide 3 readings in total, but AIDA64 only shows the 2 readings for the Nuvoton chip. If you could post 2 new nVIDIA SMBus Dumps, one when the card is at idle and running relatively cool, and another one where the card is after a heavy load (like after running 3DMark or a 3D game), we could check the VRM temperature readings (provided by the CHiL chip), because there's a chance on your card that reading is not stuck like on most GTX580/GTX680 cards.

Maybe it calls the GPU temperature (the one that AIDA64 labels as "GPU") as GPU Memory; and it calls the GPU Ambient temperature as GPU VRM?
