GoNz0 Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Just formatted the PC and thought it about time to trial Aida64 again in the hope its stable enough to purchase sad thing is as soon as it is running the mouse skips and at the same time MP3's stutter, as soon as AIDA is turned off everythings back to normal again. there is no pattern to this, its random stutter with a split second freeze of the mouse. let me know what i can do to help troubleshoot it as i would like to have this running on the win7 sidebar at all times.

Fiery Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Please let us know more about your system configuration: 1) Do you use 64-bit Windows 7? 2) Motherboard model, CPU type? 3) Video adapter(s) model? 4) Any external disk drives connected? (USB, FireWire, eSATA) 5) Any RAID arrays defined? If yes, then what RAID controller and how many drives? Which RAID controller driver version? Thanks, Fiery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiery Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 Thank you. Are the stutters approx. 20 seconds apart from each other? Or they're more frequent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoNz0 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 no pattern at all, very random, sometimes minutes apart (just been about 40 seconds from launch for the 1st, then about 20,, then 35.. cant set a time im afraid. just gone for well over a minute now ? :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 What I meant is: do you have stutters more frequently than 20 seconds? Based on your description it's yet again the Intel RAID drivers issue, ie. they cause the stutters I'm afraid You can verify that by raising the option "Disk temperature polling frequency" (in AIDA64 / main menu / File / Preferences / Hardware Monitoring) to 1800 seconds. You need the latest AIDA64 beta to have that option. Let me know what happens Thanks, Fiery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoNz0 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 i will try it later when i am on the games pc again, if this is the case is there any way to stop the hard drives being polled ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted January 18, 2011 Share Posted January 18, 2011 i will try it later when i am on the games pc again, if this is the case is there any way to stop the hard drives being polled ? You can either completely deactivate the SMART layer of AIDA64 (in main menu / File / Preferences / Stability), or increase the mentioned option (Disk temperature polling frequency) to its maximum possible value of 3600 seconds. If you choose the first workaround, then you'll lose the HDD/SSD temperature measurement capability along with the SMART information. If you choose the second workaround, then you at least can see the SMART information (on demand), and have the HDD/SSD temperatures updated once an hour.

GoNz0 Posted January 18, 2011 Author Share Posted January 18, 2011 unticking low level smart operations did not fix it, i have upped the poll time to 3600, i would rather just disable HDD temps, is it another option i need to disable ? setting the poll time to 3600 has stopped it but i would rather not have an hourly glitch if i can help it (or do i need ot reboot after unticking low level smart ?)

Fiery Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 After altering the SMART stability option, you need to restart AIDA64 to apply the changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoNz0 Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 that did not stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
