fixed: ECC supported but disabled (Skylake IMC)

[VTOLfreak 0]

Hi guys, I put together a system with ECC memory but AIDA64 is showing ECC as supported but disabled.

 

CPU: Xeon E3-1275V5

Motherboard: ASRock E3V5 WS (latest BIOS: 1.40)

Memory: Crucial CT2K16G4WFD824A 2x16GB DDR4-2400 ECC UDIMM

 

I have a CPU that supports ECC, ECC memory and a motherboard with a chipset that claims ECC support but doesn't mention ECC anywhere in the BIOS. So, is AIDA64 wrong and is ECC actually turned on? Or did ASrock screw up in the BIOS somewhere? Any other ways to check if ECC is enabled? I disabled the BIOS startup screen to watch it bootup but that didn't give any info on the memory detected. I attached the hardware report from AIDA64 if you guys want to take a look.

Thank you for the report. It seems the Skylake IMC ECC state detection method that AIDA64 currently uses isn't the proper one. We'll try to find a new method and get back to you soon in this topic.

Please upgrade to the latest beta version of AIDA64 Extreme available at:

After upgrading to this new version, make sure to restart Windows to finalize the upgrade.

Let me know if it helps.

This solved it, ECC is reported as enabled now under the Chipset section.
