  1. Hi guys,

    I recently got a new HP ZBook 15 G5 but AIDA64 seems to cause a few issues with it. The SPD page shows blank and if I attempt to open the Sensor page, it sits on Detecting and never stops. At this time, programs start getting unresponsive and I need to reboot the laptop to get it back to normal.

    I tried to create a full SMBus dump. It took over 6 minutes to generate but didn't return much as you can see in the attached file.

    smbusdump_full.txt

  2. I see that AIDA64 doesn't display the SMART data of my external hard disk when I'm using it on my Windows 8.1 machine, but it does on Windows 7. Windows 8 is using the USB Attached SCSI (UAS) driver while Windows 7 uses the standard USBSTOR driver. If I force the disk to use the USBSTOR driver on Windows 8, the SMART data appears normally.

     

    Does the UAS driver simply prevent SMART from working?

  3. I have a new Toshiba Satellite P50t-A and I've noticed that when I run AIDA64 on it, if I click the Motherboard or SPD tabs, the touchpad locks up completely. If I reboot, it comes back, but it is then detected in the Synaptics control panel as a PS/2 touchpad rather than an SMBus touchpad. When I power off completely and power back on, it then detects it as an SMBus touchpad again.

     

    Not sure if it's related but I noticed that more often than not it doesn't detect the memory modules on the SPD page. It does sometimes, but generally not.

     

    BIOS version is 1.40. Toshiba only list 1.30 on their website for this model so it seems I have a newer version.

     

    Any idea why this could be happening?
