I'm glad you like our demo SensorPanel We'll post the settings that can be used to replicate that panel later today in this topic

1) You don't need to enable the Vista Sidebar feature. It is a completely separate feature from the SensorPanel feature. 2) Once you enable the SensorPanel feature in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring / SensorPanel, and press OK to close the Preferences, an empty blue window will appear. You will then need to use the right-click menu on the blue SensorPanel to add new items of your choice. In default we don't show any items on the SensorPanel, since everyone will have a different approach on which items to be shown on his panel. However, since the "empty blue panel" caused a confusion for many of our users, from the next beta version we'll start the SensorPanel with a minimal set of default items already shown there, e.g. CPU temperature, motherboard temperature, etc. Of course you'll be able to remove the pre-configured items if you want, and replace them with your choices. BTW, our demo SensorPanel that we show off on screen shots is just an example of what you can achieve if you fiddle a lot around the SensorPanel feature We'll publish the settings for our demo SensorPanel, so you can replicate the same looks if you want, or use it as a base to make a customized panel.

For both readings we follow Intel's specifications. We're pretty sure both values are right. Did you set the Command Rate to a manual value in the BIOS Setup? Do you have another Windows software that could read the Command Rate and that shows a different value than AIDA64? Thanks, Fiery

I'm glad the latest beta worked out well

We've implemented that formula for A7V8X-X motherboard in the following new beta release of AIDA64 Extreme Edition: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild1438b5s1qcymprzip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Thanks, Fiery

We've fixed the CPU temperature. Please upgrade to the following new beta release of AIDA64 Extreme Edition: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild1438b5s1qcymprzip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Let me know if it helps. Thanks, Fiery

Thank you, that's what we were looking for. But I'm afraid your motherboard is one of those ASRock boards that use a special GPIO-based fan muxing. It effectively means only the BIOS Setup and ASRock's own Windows utility (F-Stream) can measure fan RPM for the muxed fan header called "CPU Fan2". You need to connect your fan to another fan header to let AIDA64 read the fan speed.

I'm afraid it's not it Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window, where it reads "Copyright © 1995-2011 FinalWire Ltd", then in the popup menu that appears select the second menu item called "Sensor Debug", then in the submenu that appears select the third menu item called "ISA Sensor Dump". Thanks, Fiery

Thank you. When you have the 7V fan connected to your ASRock P67 Pro motherboard, please start AIDA64, right-click on the bottom status bar of its main window --> Sensor Debug --> ISA Sensor Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. Thanks, Fiery

Can the BIOS Setup of the ASRock P67 Pro motherboard measure the 7V fan RPM properly?

If you want to adjust the core temperatures, you need to adjust the TJMax temperature in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring. However, please note that Intel writes the proper TJMax temperature into a CPU register for Core i3/i5/i7 processors. All Windows software should read that register and use that fixed TJMax temperature to measure accurate core temperatures. You can adjust the TJMax temperature if you want, but you may end up with inaccurate core temperatures. Regards, Fiery

I'm sorry, but we don't publish the list of sensor supported by AIDA64. Your video card most likely doesn't feature a sensor chip, since most Radeon HD 5770/6770 cards only have a temperature diode integrated on the GPU die. FPS monitoring is not supported by AIDA64, and we do not have a short-term plan about such an improvement. Regards, Fiery

It could be a controller limitation, a firmware issue, or a simple lack of hardware implementation (missing temperature diode). Only OCZ knows the definitive answer to that

Certain ASRock boards use a special GPIO based fan muxing logic that only ASRock's own software can handle properly. We've put a lot of efforts into using the same fan mux switches in AIDA64, but we had no luck implementing it. So I'm afraid you need to rely on ASRock's AXTU application to measure all fan speeds. With AIDA64 you can measure 4 fans out of 6 on your motherboard, since the rest of the 2 fans are muxed

AFAIK OCZ Vertex 3 drives don't have a working temperature sensing logic. As for the rest of the SMART attributes, you can see them on the Storage / SMART page of AIDA64. Regards, Fiery

Thank you. We'll do some test runs with both Marvell driver packages on a 88SE91xx controller. Once we have an AIDA64 release with the explained issue fixed, I'll report back in this topic. But please provide us at least a week, since currently we're very busy preparing for the next major update for AIDA64. Thanks, Fiery

The "0 RPM" display is a bit tricky, since a fan RPM register shows the same value when a connected fan is stopped, and when a fan header is disconnected (either deliberately or by accident). And when you have e.g. 6 fan headers on your motherboard, but you only use 1 fan header, you don't want to have 5 useless "0 RPM" entries listed on the Sensor page in AIDA64. Hence AIDA64 will only lists those fan headers that have a valid RPM reading.

Thank you. Please right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Disk Debug --> RAID Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. Then right-click on the bottom status bar of AIDA64 main window --> Disk Debug --> Disk Controllers Dump. Copy-paste the full results into this topic. Thanks, Fiery

Are your 2 drives in a RAID array, or they're standalone drives? Thanks, Fiery

I'm sorry, but not yet. We're very busy with other features, bug fixes, and implementing support and optimized benchmarks for the next generation processors by AMD and VIA. I'll let you know in this topic once we have an update to the LCD feature.

We've fixed it up in the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild1431vw3xs8dlyczip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Let me know how it works. Thanks, Fiery

Thank you for the data. Please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme Edition available at: http://www.aida64.com/downloads/aida64extremebuild1431vw3xs8dlyczip After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade. Let me know how it works. Thanks, Fiery

Where did you find that formula? We're not aware of anything like that applying to A7V8X-X motherboard.

We do have plans about improving the Rivatuner OSD Server support in future revisions of AIDA64. I'll let you know in this topic once we have news about those improvements. However, we're currently very busy developing major new AIDA64 features and implementing support for the upcoming AMD and VIA processors, hence I cannot give you a timeframe about the Rivatuner OSD Server improvement at this time
