  1. Thank you.  We've been able to make our box work on a USB 3.0 port with a NEC uPD720200 controller.  However, through the course of a 3-day test run we haven't been able to reproduce the disconnection issue :(  We've tried it with driver version 2.1.39.0 and also with an old version 2.0.20.0.

     

    However, when we've tried to connect the box manually to the USB 3.0 port, the box worked roughly once out of 5 tries, so 4 times the board didn't even sense a connection, and so Windows didn't find any devices connected and failed to mount the HDD in the box.  On the rare occasion of a successful manual connection, the box worked just fine until we unmounted it via the System Tray icon.  We prefer not to point fingers on hardware, but on this particular issue we strongly believe the VIA VL700 controller is the one to blame, since with an Etron USB 3.0 controller chip it fails to connect everytime, and with our NEC USB 3.0 controller chip it fails to connect a lot of times.  While on USB 2.0 ports it works just fine everytime.  BTW, we have a few USB 3.0 boxes, converters and flash drives around with various controller chips, but we've only found issues with the VIA VL700 controller based box of ours.

  2. Please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at:

     

    http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild2406twdq1v8hcszip

     

    After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade.

     

    Let me know if it helps.  It would also be a huge help for us if you could create an ISA Sensor Dump using this beta release, and copy-paste the results into this topic.  You can create such dump by right-clicking on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Sensor Debug --> ISA Sensor Dump.

  3. It may use a correction value (offset) on the raw temperature readout to make it look more real.  You can apply such offset on the temperature values with AIDA64 as well, if you go to main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / Correction.

  4. Modern AMD processors (including FX Series, Trinity, Richland) implement such a temperature diode that only provides meaningful values when the system is under heavy load.  This is a hardware limitation, and not the fault of AIDA64.

  5. Yes, that's grammatically true.  However, AIDA64 uses a fixed label, so based on the current battery status (discharging / charging / neutral) it's not possible to change the sensor reading label.  Instead, AIDA64 uses a negative value to indicate discharging, a positive value to indicate charging, and zero value to indicate the neutral state.  It's not a perfect solution, but it works ;)

  7. The DeLock 61854 box has arrived, and we've already put it under heavy test runs :)  Problem is: it doesn't seem to work properly when connected to USB 3.0 ports (of an Etron EJ168 xHCI controller of a Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD3-iSSD motherboard), even though we use everything "by the book", with the bundled blue USB 3.0 cable, under Windows 7 64-bit SP1 + all patches installed.  Windows can see the VIA VL700 USB 3.0 bridge chip itself, but cannot see the drive that is inserted in the box.

     

    When connected to a USB 2.0 port, the box works just fine, and we haven't found any disconnection or dismounting/remounting issues.  We've tested it with both a 2.5-inch SSD and a 3.5-inch 7200rpm HDD.

     

    We'll continue testing with different USB 3.0 controllers and different motherboards. Meanwhile, can you please let us know what sort of USB 3.0 controller do you have the MediaSonic box connected to?

  8. Thank you for the info.  We've tried it with several card readers that were lying around in our labs, and also with quite a few notebooks and HTPCs, but none of them produced an error message with AIDA64.  Can you please send us a bit more info on your card reader?  The most interesting one would be the USB hardware ID that you can find either in the Device Manager, or on the Devices / USB Devices page in AIDA64.

    Also, if possible, please post a screen shot of the error message.  Quite frankly, the last time we saw such an issue about polling removable media drives was under Windows NT 4.0 and was about Zip drives -- quite a long time ago.

     

    BTW, the disk size and free disk space detection code in AIDA64 are (or let's just say: designed to be) exception proof, and so the calls shouldn't produce any Windows error messages or popups, even when there's no disk or media inserted in the removable media slots.  It's not the code in AIDA64 that is designed improperly, but there must be something else that causes the issues on your system.  We will do everything we can to make sure the issue is fixed, so you can be assured to purchase a flawless product.

  9. Hi

    I'm new member . I have a problem with "cooling fans". Why Cooling fans displaying in the sensor ?

     

    I used Hp4530s i5-2450 and setup Aida64 2.30.1900.

    Sorry my bad english.

     

    Thank you.

     

    Most notebooks (including your HP 4530s) aren't capable of reading out cooling fan speed RPM values.
