Yes you get 1.85 FREE! no charge! just down loaded and upgrade your 1.80 to 1.85, I hope this makes your day David

Had them all... the best MS Security essentials why? FREE and does the job with no intervention and very few resources, you must remember that viri are not like they use to be, the OS has been tightened up and most panic statement to users are now from AV developers trying to sell their product David

I don't quite know if there is a question in there or not! however, I'll try to explain, the motherboard has a separate sensor that measures it's temp, the location and reason for location is only known to ASUS! ASUS also place a probe close to the CPU to measure it's temp this will normally be lower than the actual CPU temp due to it not being actually on the CPU, thirdly there is the CPU itself, I make reference here only to Intel CPUs' but you can measure the individual core temps of the CPU one of these will normally be hotter than the others and most people wanting an accuratete readings will refer to one of the core temps as the CPU temp. So in summary you will have a Motherboard temp, not related in any way to the CPU, a CPU temp that is not actually of the CPU! but not related to the Motherboard an finally CPU core temps which reflect accurately the true temp of the CPU which has nothing to de with the motherboard unless the motherboard is on fire

I think the present display is functional, it's not a work of art but then it's not meant to be, it's an informational display tool and in that context it's perfect for letting the user know what's goin on in his sytem. If we start getting into the athsetics of how that information is displayed it will take away from what the tool is, after all beauty is in the eye of the beholder! David

If that is the address of your aida64.exe file then when you double click on the image in the sensor panel that the URL is associated with it should open the program..... does for me Another thought, make sure that your image is at the top of the layer! by that I mean the image is not behind say your background or control item. David

Yes! just have the URL point ot a place the program resides on your HD David

Very simple but gives all the data I need from a single running program

Fantastic! only leaarnt about this this morning my first crude attempt took a little under 1/2 hour much better than the OSD or Vista sidebar.

I ment the format you have set your operating system too! nothing to do with AIDA64 and as you have not described your system can only guess at your issues. David

I think it uses the format you have set in the system time configuration David

That .dll is part of SQL Server Performance Acquisition DLL, I believe from version 9 of Microsofts SQL server. Now AIDA64 might be using that but I can tell you on my sytem that AIDA64 is monitoring everything it can Resource Monitor shows AIDA64 averaging 0.64% use! so at 10% I think something else might be going on in your system. What frequency of system polling have you set? David

Given recent discussions this would make a lot of sense :-) David

I have no idea what the game the OP is playing but a photo of his case posted elsewhere clearly shows he has a connection to the PWR_FAN header. despite his claims to the contrary. And it seems to be a splitter of some sort! David

It's AIDA64 Hmm! I'm sure we'll all miss you. Don't forget to tell them on Guru of 3D how you proved me wrong. David

Now we are getting somewhere! a note of 'maybe I'm wrong' in your tone Run ASUS Probe II, or AI Suite, they both don't use any 3rd party application and access the mobo sensor directly, if you still see a reading, and I guarantee you will because it's shown in the bios, then begin to accept the fact that the PWR_FAN header may be damaged, maybe you spilt some water on it or it gave up after living with all that screaming noise those fans must make.... just kidding David

Firstly it's called PWR_Fan not PSU! Your mother board, with headers shown. Total 5 headers, you either have something connected to the PWR_FAN (Not PSU Fan) or your mobo is faulty.

What's the bet the OP fails to respond to this one David

Look! AIDA64 reads the sensors on a mother board as provided by a chip the manufacture puts on the mobo. The naming of a header as Power Supply is a left over from pervious convention and to be used by PSUs' that DO provide a seperate lead to monitor their fans, this header can be used for many other things, in my case I have a Corsair Memory cooler attached to it and I can monitor it's rpms', if you are right then when I viewed it I would be seeing at least 2 different readings, 1 x ram cooler & 1 x PSU fan.... I not seeing that neither is anybody else. You cannot connect a PSU to any mobo header UNLESS the PSU manafacturer has provided a seperate cable for monitoring their fan and maybe adjusting it. The main cables coming from a HX1000 are the 2 power cables and a number of SATA/Molex attachments and slots to attach other cables such as PCIEx power connectors There is NO fan monitoring connection. Even the voltages and amps monitored by AIDA64 are NOT from the PSU but the variuos sensors on the mobo. I don't have a clue what you have connected to your power header but it isn't the PSU, if you built the computer yourself you should know, if it's a store bought system then who knows! Never assume you know more than the next person David

Oh dear! go here http://forum.corsair.com/v3/showthread.php?t=71761 only a few PSUs' such as Antec provide PSU fan monitoring FELLA! a forum is just that! email suport directly if you want your ignorance to be kept privaste David

Well actually I don't believe I am, the HX1000 has a fan controlled by a thermal resistor internal in the HX1000 case it has only a 2 wire connection and rotates in accordance to the PSU temp. There is no external connection on the PSU to monitor the fan and it's rotation. On modern motherboards there are a number of 'headers' to connect fans or other items requiring power and or monitoring, most of these are called case or chasis headers, however left over from the time PSUs' didn't have internal fans is the Power header but it is just like the others. I don't know what your mobo is or what you might have connected to that header, but it isn't the PSU! and it isn't reporting the speed of the PSU header. How do I know this! check my sig. David

Hmm! don't think you can monitor or control the HX1000 fan, I think what you are looking at is the Power Header on the motherboard. David

Yes mine too! not really a bug! does appear about 10 seconds after startup No issues with software Hardware in sig. David

There you go, I just bought another 2 years of updates as I like the way AIDA64 is going and I think it will be monitoring my computer for it's life, which will probably only be another 2 years the way things are going.... if I'm lucky Can you make the sidebar gadget a little more in keeping with your very fine program? presently it looks and is about as configerable as a brick stuck on my screen. David

Thanks for that I can live with your method, can you hurry up and improve on the sidebar gadget please :-) David
