    Windows 8 sensors

    in Hardware monitoring

    Posted

    Windows Gadgets have been removed from Windows 8 by Microsoft, because now they want to push "Metro" (or "Modern") style applications instead. I'm afraid AIDA64 cannot put that feature back into Windows 8 :( However, you can actually configure the SensorPanel to make it look exactly like a Windows Gadget, so we do not feel the lack of Gadgets a real issue about Windows 8.

    S.M.A.R.T Stability Option knocks my USB 3.0 external enclosures offline (Mediasonic K32-SU3)

    Is there any easy way to force the dismount, its being really stable right now and isnt dismounting like it should with none disabled. Im copying files but so far no dismounts, is there an easier way?

    I guess the easiest way is to restart AIDA64, go to the Storage / SMART page, and refresh it a couple of times (you can use the F5 key to refresh a page). Then close AIDA64 and restart the whole process again. The most USB-ATA bridge communication is done at AIDA64 startup, and when you refresh the SMART info.

    1) You don't need Everest anymore

    2) You only need the new AIDA64 beta:

    http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild2320tjb6lpwyzxzip

     

    3) Start the new AIDA64 beta, go to Preferences, but only press the OK button there. Then close AIDA64

    4) Go to AIDA64 folder, and find the file called AIDA64.INI. You need to edit that file, using e.g. Notepad

    5) Inside the AIDA64.INI file you need to change the line:

    HWMonSharedMemName=AIDA64_SensorValues

    In that line you need to change AIDA64 to EVEREST to make the new AIDA64 compatible with AlphaCool. So the line should look like this:

    HWMonSharedMemName=EVEREST_SensorValues

    I'm afraid I cannot use better or more basic English than this :)

    Please do NOT use the RAID Dump, since it would still scan all devices using all methods, regardless of the disable facility.

    It's up to you which method do you try. I'd start with all disabled, and try that first. If it's stable, then I'd try to enable them one by one, so in 5 steps I'd get to the "everything enabled" state.

    If you find a problemous one, please note it down, but continue the testing, since there's a slim chance multiple methods cause the same issues in the USB-ATA bridge chip.

    Thank you for your time.

    Asus AI Suite and Aida64

    It's absolutely not recommended to have the low-level register access when AI Suite is installed, since it would cause various issues, e.g. fan alerts (when they are spinning fine), system lockup, voltage delivery issues, etc. AIDA64 automatically detects AI Suite, and when it is installed, AIDA64 will use the AI Suite method based on ATKEX calls.

    Our order from Am***n hasn't arrived, so we've filed a complaint, and without any word from the seller company, we got a refund. But that still left us without a device :(

    So what we came up with is a special test build of AIDA64, that unfortunately leaves the testing on you -- I hope you don't mind ;) Please upgrade to the following AIDA64 Extreme Edition beta:

    http://users.aida64....asonic_test.zip

    With this you can disable any of the five USB passthru modules of AIDA64. We suspect that either one of them would be behind the dismount issue. What you need to do is create one or more of the following 5 text files in the AIDA64 installation folder:

    disable_atapt.txt

    disable_cypress.txt

    disable_jmicron.txt

    disable_oxford.txt

    disable_sunplus.txt

    Content of the files is irrelevant, they can be empty files. Whenever AIDA64 detects the existence of any of those files (when it starts up with the splash screen), it will disable the relevant USB passthru module. It will notify you about the disabling by creating a text file in the C:\ folder. Please try to disable the modules one by one, and let us know which one is the culprit :) But first make sure to enable SMART detection in Preferences / Stability.

    Thanks,

    Fiery

    I'm sorry for the delays, but this improvement didn't quite fit into our development schedule of AIDA64 v2.70. But now we got back to it, and implemented it as a non-GUI option. What you need to do is upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at:

    http://www.aida64.co...03vxqt5pcb3gzip

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

    Then start AIDA64, go to Preferences, and simply press the OK button, and close AIDA64. Then go to AIDA64 folder, open AIDA64.INI, and scan the file for the following line:

    HWMonSharedMemName=AIDA64_SensorValues

    You can edit that line to make the shared memory facility of AIDA64 compatible with plugins made for Everest ;)
