Of course you can use that feature. So if you set it to once a day, such users who log on to their computer multiple times a day will only have one report created every day. By using the /SILENT command-line option, the system tray icon of AIDA64 will be hidden.

The only potential issue I can see about your command-line is the space characters in the shared folder name. Try to rename the folder called AIDA64 Business Edition to something simpler, e.g. aida64business. The rest of the command-line seems just fine. If it still doesn't work, then check if you provided the necessary write permissions to the \\server\report folder for your network users.

I'm afraid that's currently not possible with AIDA64.

That's the usual behavior of modal windows. When you minimize the modal window, the whole application gets minimized, and when you restore the application, the modal window is still minimized, so only the main application window is restored.

You need to purchase as many licenses as many computers you want to audit. If you have a network with 100 computers, you need to have 100 licenses of AIDA64 Business Edition.

Please try to disable automatic launching from Logitech drivers (using Logitech LCD Manager), and instead rely on the built-in auto-startup feature of AIDA64 that you can activate in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / General / Load AIDA64 at Windows startup. Regards, Fiery

Thank you for the feedback

You can further improve the panel by using transparent PNG images for logos, e.g. try to replace your Core 2 Extreme badge with the following image: http://www.aida64.com/files/image_intlogo_core2_extreme.png

The easiest way to catalog AIDA64 reports for such a use is to create CSV reports in folders named by the creation date. Example command-line: \\server\share\aida64folder\aida64.exe /R \\server\share\aida64reports\$DATE\$HOSTNAME /CSV /AUDIT /SILENT /SAFE Then you can simply point the Audit Manager (of AIDA64 Business Edition) input folder into the \\server\share\aida64reports folder, and it will load the last reports (the current audit). To list the changes between audit snapshots -- ordered either by username, hostname or date -- you can use the Change Manager feature (of AIDA64 Business Edition). You should use the input folder again as \\server\share\aida64reports, and it will list and indicate any hardware or software changes across all your networked computers. You can limit the Change Manager to list only the changes occured in the past 7 or so days if you want. As for real-time alerting, AIDA64 Business Edition has such a feature, but you need to have AIDA64 running in the background all the time to use that feature (AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Alerting).

When pressing the New or Modify button in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / LCD, the window has 4 layouts, selectable with the "Item Type" dropdown list near the top-left corner. First layout is for the Sensor Item, which is the more complex, less-intuitive way to configure your LCD items. Second layout is the new Simple Sensor Item that offers the same level of customizations as the old LCD module. Third and fourth are the Static Label and Image that lets you add labels and pictures to your LCD. If you want to configure your LCD without hassling with the complexity of the Sensor Item layout, just select the Simple Sensor Item from the dropdown list. Later on, if you decide you want to give the more complex method a try, e.g. to add bars to your LCD, then you can reconfigure any of the LCD items from Simple Sensor Item into Sensor Item.

Thank you for the feedback

Thank you for the feedback. It should be okay with Catalyst 11.9 as well We've switched from dynamic DLL linking (of OPENGL32.DLL) to static linking. Most software utilizing OpenGL use static linking, but so far AIDA64 had no problem with dynamic linking. Apparently Catalyst 11.8 has a bug that only comes up when OPENGL32.DLL is dynamically loaded.

We've implemented the Simple Sensor Item in both the SensorPanel and the Logitech LCD module. The old LCD settings are imported into Simple Sensor Items, retaining the old layout 100%. Make sure to upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild1604bxs0dft5lnzip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Let me know how it works. Thanks, Fiery

We've done quite a bit of testing today, and we've been able to fix the OpenGL issue with a workaround: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild1604bxs0dft5lnzip Let me know how it works. Thanks, Fiery

We've already done some test runs about this issue, and it seems it's due to a bug in Catalyst 11.8. No other drivers seem to be affected. In the OpenGL detection part of AIDA64, the OpenGL32.dll module throws an exception when wglCreateContext is called. Quite a weird issue...

Either you implement a XML parser, or simply process the long string, to convert it to a format that you need. It's not a real, complex XML string, just a dumb XML-like format

AIDA64 Extreme Edition doesn't support command-line parameters. Would you need to disable collecting product keys with AIDA64 Extreme Edition?

AIDA64 Business Edition supports the following command-line parameter to disable collecting software product keys: /NOLICENSE Regards, Fiery

In auto mode AIDA64 tests all block sizes, and selects the one block size that provides the best scores. In many cases the results for various block sizes will be very close to each other, resulting in selecting a different block size. If you're certain about which one is the best block size to use, then simply avoid using the auto setting Regards, Fiery

So far a handful of customers reported similar findings. It's a relatively low number, but we're committed to provide a software to suit everyone's needs, so we'll implement the "Simple Sensor Item" in the next AIDA64 beta release due in a few days. That import feature is already there, and automatically imports the old settings into the new LCD module. Problem is: due to the fundamental difference between items placement and label-value-unit relations, there's no way to attain the same looks with the new LCD module. However, by implementing the "Simple Sensor Item", accurate items importing will also be possible. Please keep your old AIDA64.INI file (it includes your old LCD settings) if possible, so when you upgrade to the next AIDA64 beta, your old settings will be automatically imported and the old LCD looks will be retained. It is still possible to display it the way you want. You just need to adjust the "Total width" parameter to move the label and value closer to each other.

There's no struct involved at all, since AIDA64 publishes sensor readings in shared memory as a single long string (set of characters), using XML format. You can simply read the full shared memory into a character variable, and display it or post-process it. Regards, Fiery
