Can you please attach a screen shot that shows what PowerChute detects about your UPS? Alternatively, please let us know the missing value(s), so we can check if they are present in the UPS dump somewhere. Thanks, Fiery

Ours is the regular Asus HD7970-3GD5. I guess the cards you have may have different power circuitry and slightly different VRM design and VRM configuration, but they all have the same VRM chip. We'll try to get a different HD7970 card to see if it has the VRM communication issue.

We'll do more test runs, but so far we haven't been able to reproduce the issue Maybe it's the actual video card model that matters? I mean ours is the Asus HD7970. Maybe your Gigabyte HD7970 produces the issue, but the Asus HD7970 you and us got is trouble-free? Have you done such tests to see if they both act the same when they are in your system as a standalone video card?

I'm afraid we have no plans on FPS monitoring for 2012 Regards, Fiery

1) What kind of SQL server do you use? If it is a Microsoft SQL Server, then please let us know the edition and service pack revision as well. 2) Do you have 32-bit or 64-bit Win7 installations, or mixed? Did they all have SP1 applied? 3) Do you have any special client software or driver (like MySQL Connector/ODBC) installed on your WinXP systems, or Win7 systems, or both kind of systems? 4) If it is a Microsoft SQL Server, then do you use Windows authentication or SQL based authentication or mixed? Thanks, Fiery

Yes, we'll get there, eventually. Please note that we have a tremendous amount of todo's on our table. What you and other AIDA64 users publicly request on this forum is only a part of the "story". Every week we get dozens of requests via other sources like email support and direct correspondance between customers, manufacturers, review site owners, industry professionals, etc. We're also passively present on other forums where people talk about overclocking, tweaking, modding, benchmarking, to see what they say about AIDA64 and other diagnostic software. We gather thoughts, ideas, requests, complaints, bug reports from all sources, and then we have to make a priority order between them. With that I'm not saying that a particular request is less important than another, but based on available development resources, prospected development and testing time, potential customer response, and various other factors, we still have to put some requests ahead of the rest. And quite frankly, the SensorPanel is already too difficult and quirky to be handled by most AIDA64 users. Adding a few more layers wouldn't help about that. We will do that of course, but for example when more users ask us about making the Desktop Gadget feature more advanced than the number of users who asked the same about the SensorPanel meant that we had to deal with the Desktop Gadget improvements first. We expected the SensorPanel -- which was initially requested by quite a few AIDA64 users -- to be a huge hit, but it seems to generate less buzz than the initial number of requests suggested. I'm not saying no gauges or graphs would be implemented in the SensorPanel, but first we may have to rethink the whole SensorPanel feature to make it more user-friendly. We've already added the Simple Sensor Item to help configuring and handling the SensorPanel for less-experienced users, but it only marginally helped. So there's a lot to do around the SensorPanel, and we may have to make radical changes before adding more "juice". I hope you understand that, and give us a bit more time

These days, when CRT monitors are on the verge of extinction, we don't think refresh rate is an information that should be considered for the hardware monitoring module of AIDA64. As for resolution, it is an important information, but I'm not sure why would you want to add that into the G19 LCD? Can you please explain? Maybe you use a dynamic desktop resolution, or control your system remotely via a KVM switch? I'm just asking, because the hardware monitoring module of AIDA64 was designed to gather and display dynamically changing/updated data, like temperatures, fan speeds, CPU load, etc. While the desktop resolution or refresh rate is not something that changes at all. A typical computer user tend to keep the desktop resolution intact for years (especially on LCD monitors), as long as the underlying hardware (video adapter, monitor) is kept the same. Regards, Fiery

We'll check if it's possible to gather such data from Windows. Do you know of any software that can display such information? Thanks, Fiery

Mobile processors generally can stand much higher temperatures than desktop processors. As long as the bottom graph doesn't show any non-zero throttling activity, your processor is feeling fine 90 Celsius is a bit high even for a mobile processor, but please note that what AIDA64 System Stability Test puts on your system is the worst case scenario. Most cases, even when you're running a power demanding task on your system, the overall system stress is still much lower than what AIDA64 System Stability puts on your system. Regards, Fiery

Business Edition is licensed based on the number of computers you have in your enterprise. In case you audit client's PCs, and it's not easy to tell how many computers are there in question, then please make sure to contact our distributor ABSEIRA, explain your situation, and ask them to clarify how many licenses do you need to purchase to cover all your clients' computers. You can contact them at: info AT abseira.com

We've done some test runs today on a similar configuration, but found everything working as expected. The only thing I can think of is reverting back to the original DB - Access.mdb file you can find in AIDA64 installation package. Make sure to verify if there is an Unblock button in the file's Preferences. If there's one, then push the Unblock button.

The new AIDA64 release revamps the Desktop Gadget module, further enhances its Uninterruptible Power Supply and Smart Battery monitoring capabilities, and implements full support for the complete AMD Radeon HD 7000 GPU family and the latest generation Intel SSD drives.

Please let me know more about your software configuration: 1) Windows version with Service Pack release? Kernel type? (32-bit or 64-bit) 2) Installed MS Office version? Service Pack?

ASLR and DEP support may be available in some compilers, but the compiler we use doesn't support such options. We've already adjusted AIDA64 source code to make it possible to compile it to 64-bit. We may release a 64-bit main binary as a beta later this year. Please note that most AIDA64 customers don't need and wouldn't benefit from having a 64-bit main binary. A 64-bit main binary would mean a larger disk footprint, larger memory footprint, and slightly slower overall operation as well. Critical AIDA64 components (CPU/FPU/cache/memory benchmarks and the System Stability Test) are already in a native 64-bit module. Regards, Fiery

If all tables are empty, then it means AIDA64 inserted the report(s) not into the MDB file that you're viewing. Make sure to verify which MDB file AIDA64 uses for its database.

It is there in the MDB file. A new line is inserted into the Report table for every reports, and a number of new lines inserted into the Item table for every reports.

It means it all went well. Go to AIDA64 / main menu / File / Database Manager to browse the reports that have been inserted to your database

Do you get any message after the report creation process finished?

Make sure to use DB - Access.mdb file, not the Access'97 one. The trial version should be able to put the report into the database. No installation is required for AIDA64. You can use it from a flash drive or SD card if you want. You can even run it from a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM disc, although that way you cannot save data on the disc

Yes, it should be possible to do that. You need to choose MS Access 2000/XP/2003 as Provider, select the .MDB file as Database. Then you can create reports using the Report Wizard. Make sure to select ADO as report format. Regards, Fiery

Thank you for the feedback.

Thank you for the feedback

Standalone hard disk drives provide the same performance beyond 4 KB block size. Standalone SSD drives act the same, but the limit there is around 128 KB block size. The bigger block sizes (e.g. 1 MB) are there in the AIDA64 Disk Benchmark to let you measure the performance of RAID arrays. We'll extend the maximum block size to 8 MB in the next AIDA64 release.

Can you please explain in what scenario a 1 GigaByte (or 1 Gigabit?) block size would yield to higher scores than the current maximum block size? Thanks, Fiery

AIDA64 motherboard database has the following entries about P8Z68 Deluxe models: Asus P8Z68 Deluxe Asus P8Z68 Deluxe/Gen3 So it does differentiate between them. I don't see a reason to indicate the non-Gen3 model with e.g. "Asus P8Z68 Deluxe (non-Gen3)", since that would just look a bit silly
