Asus Rampage IV Extreme + AIDA64 + Asus AI Suite II: Thread creation error & wrong fan readings

Hello,

I noticed that on Asus Rampage IV Extreme, AIDA64 sometimes outputs "Thread creation error: Insufficient memory for this operation" and after that readings of OPT1, OPT3, Case 2 and PCH fans become 0.0 RPM (I have OPT2, Case 1 and Case 2 fans unconnected so cannot say anything about them). CPU fan and CPU OPT fan readings are still OK.

If I relaunch AIDA64 (File - Exit - Run again), readings become OK, and sometimes later the problem repeats.

I have to confess that I have ASUS Suite II installed (because and only because AIDA64 missed OPTx temp support on Asus R4E!). After installation of AIDA64 Beta, I stopped running it, but process explorer shows its modules loaded and running (FanControlHelper.exe etc). So this may be result of interaction of AIDA64 and ASUS' DLLs (http://forums.aida64...ndpost__p__5532). It's not a problem for me, I plan to uninstall ASUS software. Just leaving it now only to help you in testing :)

AIDA64 version: 2.50.2075 Beta.

P.S. Fiery, thanks a lot for your great work - from another R4E user :)

Never remove R4E support from AIDA64! :) BTW, you already have Option/Stability settings, you may add Asus Suite II compatibility there...

Thank you for the info. The current solution in AIDA64 v2.60 uses separate code path when AI Suite is installed and when it is not installed. In both cases AIDA64 is now able to read all temperature, fan speed and voltage values. So if you don't need AI Suite, then make sure to uninstall it. AIDA64 will then be able to utilize its low-level functions about Rampage IV, and there should be no thread creation issues. We'll also try to find out why the thread creation problem comes up when AI Suite is installed.

BTW, please note that even if you close AI Suite application, its low-level service still continues to be running. So to avoid any potential conflicts between AIDA64 and AI Suite, you need to completely uninstall AI Suite.

Regards,

Fiery

Thank you, Fiery.

I know about AI Suite modules, they can be seen in sysinternals' Process Explorer, for example.

If AIDA64 may produce debug logs (f.e. aida64.exe --secret-debug-mode-switch --debug-module=asusdll --verbose --destination=C:\Logs), and they may be useful for debugging, I can send them to you.

There's no such debugging or logging facility in AIDA64 :)

      Asus Prime X470-Pro fan logic reverses with AIDA64 running.
      By Rockstonicko
      So I'm about at my wits end with this, this is such a bizarre issue. I've already submitted a ticket to Asus about this and they are "researching" why this is happening for the last 2 days but I've heard nothing back yet, so I figured I'd do the same for AIDA64 and see if there are any answers/suggestions/solutions or jokes to ease my insanity.

      AIDA64 Extreme ver. 6.10.5200 is the only hardware monitoring application I'm using as I've read multiple monitoring apps can cause the ITE IT8665E Super IO chip to bug out. (Among 1000 other things, is this thing just garbage or what?)
      I'm also using the Logitech LCD configuration in AIDA64 to display temperatures/clockspeeds/VRM current/power/etc. basically all the important information I can fit spread between 4 pages on my Logitech LCD. However, I'm not monitoring fan speeds on my LCD just in case that's causing an issue.
      After anywhere from 15 minutes to 2 hours, the fans I have connected to motherboard headers will stop spinning. After doing some experimentation and attempting to control the fans after they have stopped, I've figured out that the fan logic is randomly inverting. That is, 100% fan speed becomes 0%, and 0% becomes 100%, 66% fan speed becomes 34% fan speed etc. So after it happens, I can set the fans to 0% and they will spin back up to 100%, or to 34% and they will spin back up to 66%. So I have some form of solution, albeit not an ideal one.

      I've also noticed that once the logic reverse happens, the fan sensor values in AIDA64 either freeze at their reported value, or they just show 0 RPM depending on how it's feeling at that particular instance. If I'm not running AIDA64 this will not happen, but it's an inevitability whenever AIDA64 is running. Rebooting the PC or sleep/resume will correct the issue for another 15 minutes to 2 hours.

      Here are the only options I have enabled in the stability section of AIDA64:
      Load Kernel driver Low-Level MSR Low-Level PCI Low-Level SMBus Low-Level sensor Low-Level SMART SMBus access through ACPI GPU Sensor Support I have disabled Asus WMI sensor support because I read that can solve the issue, but it hasn't helped.

      This is also the second fresh install of Windows 10 on this machine, and it has happened during both installs. I'm on the latest 5220 BIOS, and changing all of the parameters of Q-Fan in the BIOS doesn't seem to have any effect.

      looking for a way to transmit information with Virtual com port
      By lighting
      hellow friends,I'm lighting from NanJING city,China.I'm making a cheap module to show some information about hardware,like How much  the CPU/GPU/RAM/SSD is used ,and their temperature.I want this module is cheap enough and powerful enough，If we do not calculate the cost of OLED,it will cost no more than three dollars include PCB，MCU and others like resistor and capacitor in 0603.Now,I have designed PCB,once the program is completely ready,I will send the PCB drawing to the foundry.I finished 90% of the program part.But now I get a trouble.I used to use a software to get information I required,but it's very Unstable.It doesn't even work now.I am so sad that the module is almost finished.
      I am not familiar with Aida64,but I think it must be able to transmit information with virtual serial port.In my design, USB simulate as serial port,Aida64 transfer information to the MCU by USB.MCU  includes the features of CP2102 andCH340.
      Please help me,I will open source my code and PCB design.In China,MCU and PCB are cheap enough.if you want PCB, I can  give one piece to you for free,but you have to come to Nanjing to take it away,hah,the shipping costs are expensive.

      fixed: Nuvoton NCT6791D sensor readings not showing (Asus Sabertooth Z87)
      By PierrotIV
      Hi,
      In last beta 4944, the Nuvoton NCT6791D is not showing any sensor.
      In the previous 4936 it was working.
      Hope this helps

      OSD Fan readings problems and CPU temp (Asus P9X79 + Corsair Hydro H100 v2)
      By Ojustaboo
      Hi
      A few odd things. I've recently added cheap water cooling to my PC.
      It might be a misunderstanding  (or reconfiguration) on my pat. 
      1) Sometimes when I start the PC and AIDA64  auto starts, it only shows the 3 white fan options as shown in the bottom of pic "Turn on PC".
      If I close AIDA64 and restart it, or reboot, it comes up with the 5 fans it should have (see bottom of pic "Restarted"), 
      2) very occasionally it starts correctly by showing the 5 fan options, but will say both the GPU Rad fan and the Temp Side Fan are 0 RPM even though they are spinning (sorry haven't got a pic for this)
      Note, Power supply fan should be 0 RPM as it's a quite PS that only starts the fan if needed
      3) With my CPU watercooler, I installed Corsairs iCUE fan control software (I presume this is needed to control the fans?).  That software shows completely different CPU temps to yours. When running your Stress Test, (all in C)
      After 40 seconds, yours says 39 , iCUE says 33.7
      After 2 mins, yours says 40  iCUE says 34.3
      After 3 mins yours says 40  iCUE says 34.8
      After 4 mins yours says 41, iCUE says 35.1
      After 6 mins yours says 41, iQUE says 35.6
      After 11 mins yours says 42 iQUE says 36.1
      Pics of the above attached.  I left it running for a while longer, but the temp stayed fluctuating  between  41/42.
      Then after I'd stopped your stress test for a couple of mins or so your s/w says 29, iQUE says 34.6
