SpeedFan suddenly stops being able to detect controllers and sensors mid game












3














so I'm playing games on my PC and I have some fan control setup using SpeedFan for my PWM fans which usually works really nice. However, the other day my game wasn't running so smoothly and I saw that my temperatures are quite high. I opened up my SpeedFan and saw that it's not detecting the fans or any temperatures. I restarted it and it showed the following output:

After the restart, it detects only the GPU fan and all the temperatures normally, but none of the other fans. Not their speeds or anything.



I opened up Aida64 which successfully detects everything, including the fans.



After I restart my computer, SpeedFan starts up and detects everything normally and works again normally for a while. However, after some time, the same thing happens.



What is it that is causing SpeedFan to stop detecting controllers and sensors while gaming?

    Well that's funny, because before you put it on hold and almost deprived me of seeing the answer and solving my issue, I managed to see the very first answer which got the issue 100% spot on. So I guess it's not too broad for the people this is meant for. And also, just because something is failing, doesn't mean it's buggy or that the failure is caused by the thing that's failing. This could have helped all the people who will be Googling this issue. And I know they will because this is a common problem caused by a game with 2 million concurrent players. I guess now they will never know.

  • Hey Sam, I was going to improve the answer and ask you which game this was about. I saw this is a thing in ARK and PUGB. I'm not sure what other games use battleeye, so I was hoping to get more info from you. The answer that was deleted was spot on, it just needed a bit more detail that I was going to add to.

Well that's funny, because before you put it on hold and almost deprived me of seeing the answer and solving my issue, I managed to see the very first answer which got the issue 100% spot on. So I guess it's not too broad for the people this is meant for. And also, just because something is failing, doesn't mean it's buggy or that the failure is caused by the thing that's failing. This could have helped all the people who will be Googling this issue. And I know they will because this is a common problem caused by a game with 2 million concurrent players. I guess now they will never know.

Hey Sam, I was going to improve the answer and ask you which game this was about. I saw this is a thing in ARK and PUGB. I'm not sure what other games use battleeye, so I was hoping to get more info from you. The answer that was deleted was spot on, it just needed a bit more detail that I was going to add to.

Yeah, it was PUBG after all. I'm actually quite concerned now, this seems like a massive security issue. It's very intrusive, I never allowed a game the power to decide what software I may and may not run on my own computer. Not to mention it could have caused hardware damage.

The issue here is the newest version of the BattlEye anti-cheat software is blocking some functionality of SpeedFan and potentially other similar programs. The following is from the BattlEye FAQ page.




When starting my game with BattlEye enabled, my SpeedFan (or potentially other hardware-related) software stops working. Please fix it!



BattlEye is blocking certain software that is using kernel drivers which contain known security issues that can be exploited by cheats. We cannot support such software and therefore cannot provide a fix. Please ensure that you are using the latest version of such software, or there is no newer version available, contact the developer/vendor of the software to notify them of the problem.




Will it be fixed?



There is an open bug report on Mantis Bug Tracker. It's in an acknowledged state, but I'm not sure if anything will even happen to it. SpeedFan has not been updated since June 29, 2016 and BattlEye has already stated they will not change their anti-cheat software.



There are many games that use BattleEye, so this could happen to multiple people. A few games that I know of are ARK: Survival Evolved, Fortnite, and PUBG.



What are my alternatives?



If you're loyal to SpeedFan, you can try these steps posted by KarlHeinzGrabowski. It could be worth a shot if you want to keep using SpeedFan. Alternatively, you could use other software to monitor temps. I rarely look at temps, but when I do want to look at something I use MSI Afterburner. It has all that I need to see, and is something that is still updated.



After you exit your game, you can fix SpeedFan so it successfully detects everything again. To do so, open the command prompt or powershell as admin and run these two commands:



sc.exe stop speedfan



sc.exe start speedfan



Unfortunately, SpeedFan will most likely continue to become more depreciated if it is not updated. It may be wise to try explore other options. Developer companies will not make workarounds for software that has not been updated in two or more years.

  • how is it that when I close the game, the issue persists? I dont see battleeye running any more so shouldn´t the block be lifted then? Isn´t / shouldn´t battleeye properly unblocking everything when the game shuts down? whats going on?

  • if you aren't running speedfan as a service, or use nssm or equivalent, you can use the following Powershell script to restart the driver in Windows 10: Get-WmiObject win32_SystemDriver | ? name -eq "speedfan" | % { $_.StopService(); Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 10000 ; $_.StartService() }

    @veritaS it’s hard to tell since the application is closed source and no longer developed. My guess would be that the program would properly close in older versions of Windows. Microsoft may have changed something in the OS to where the implemented close function no longer behaves as it should. An open source alternative you could try is Sidebar Diagnostics. I’ve never used it but it looks fairly similar.

I had a similar problem, turns out for me it was BattlEye blocking Speedfan's access. Currently I don't believe there is a workaround, Speedfan stopped development and Battleye won't unblock it.

  • @Scott I would disagree and say this is a possible answer. The question doesn't state what game is, but it's something that could happen for multiple games because battleeye is used in multiple games. There is a confirmed bug report that the new version of battleeye anti-cheat prevents SpeedFan from working correctly. I don't know if they are actually not going to make changes or not, but the bug is an acknowledged state. I would say the answer needs more detail, rather than saying it doesn't provide any answer.

  • @DrZoo: And it’s a gray area simply because the question isn’t a question; it’s just a description of a bunch of symptoms. So it’s hard to judge what’s an answer and what isn’t. If the question had asked “What causes this problem?”, then this would qualify as an answer. If kutori had said that the workaround was to stick to games that don’t use BattlEye, I might have, reluctantly, let it slide. But they come right out and say “I don’t believe there is a workaround”, so I voted thumbs down. If you believe that this is salvageable as an answer, feel free to edit it.

I had this problem after installing ARK: Survival Evolved.



Either you can use the workaround someone mentioned above, or switch software. I switched to Argus Monitor. I dont like it as much, however it does the job. It is not free as SpeedFan is, but it costs like 8 bucks a year so it is pretty cheap.

    I have fix it.



    I am very disappointed with the incompatibility of PUBG and SpeedFan. The only solution is to uninstall SpeedFan. Fortunately, in less than an hour searching the internet I found the solution with Argus Monitor.



    Argus Monitor is shareware for 30 days but at the end of the trial period, Argus keeps running even though a registration reminder message is displayed.



    With Argus Monitor I can control the GPU fan (although I have set it by default), the CPU fan (also by BIOS default) and the best thing is that I can control the fans of the system by means of graphics associated to several sensors at the same time GPU and CPU temperature. It is perfect. In addition Argus Monitor shows many more graphs and configurations than SpeedFan. Also Argus does not give errors like in the speeds of the fans. SpeedFan showed me bad speeds of the type 65535 RPM. Argus Monitor is updated every so often and constantly adds new functionalities and new motherboard chips. It has even more functions than SpeedFan. With Argus I can control the CPU, GPU and System fans and put them in 3 modes: by default (BIOS), manually fixed or by software control (with dot graph). It's excellent.



    My configuration:



    BIOS: TEMP-CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-CPU 20-100%



    BIOS: TEMP-CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-SYS 30-100%



    DEFAULT: TEMP-GPU 60-80ºC -- FAN-GPU 20-100%



    ARGUS: TEMP-GPU/CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-SYS 30-100%

      • @DrZoo thanks, but I already got that from the post and I was able to fix it. I was however interested in the why and not the how to fix. Cause I dont understand why they would keep the temp changes their application makes alive, after the programm is getting closed.

        @veritaS it’s hard to tell since the application is closed source and no longer developed. My guess would be that the program would properly close in older versions of Windows. Microsoft may have changed something in the OS to where the implemented close function no longer behaves as it should. An open source alternative you could try is Sidebar Diagnostics. I’ve never used it but it looks fairly similar.

      how is it that when I close the game, the issue persists? I dont see battleeye running any more so shouldn´t the block be lifted then? Isn´t / shouldn´t battleeye properly unblocking everything when the game shuts down? whats going on?

      if you aren't running speedfan as a service, or use nssm or equivalent, you can use the following Powershell script to restart the driver in Windows 10: Get-WmiObject win32_SystemDriver | ? name -eq "speedfan" | % { $_.StopService(); Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 10000 ; $_.StartService() }

      I had a similar problem, turns out for me it was BattlEye blocking Speedfan's access. Currently I don't believe there is a workaround, Speedfan stopped development and Battleye won't unblock it.

      • @Scott I would disagree and say this is a possible answer. The question doesn't state what game is, but it's something that could happen for multiple games because battleeye is used in multiple games. There is a confirmed bug report that the new version of battleeye anti-cheat prevents SpeedFan from working correctly. I don't know if they are actually not going to make changes or not, but the bug is an acknowledged state. I would say the answer needs more detail, rather than saying it doesn't provide any answer.

      I had this problem after installing ARK: Survival Evolved.



      Either you can use the workaround someone mentioned above, or switch software. I switched to Argus Monitor. I dont like it as much, however it does the job. It is not free as SpeedFan is, but it costs like 8 bucks a year so it is pretty cheap.

              I have fix it.



              I am very disappointed with the incompatibility of PUBG and SpeedFan. The only solution is to uninstall SpeedFan. Fortunately, in less than an hour searching the internet I found the solution with Argus Monitor.



              Argus Monitor is shareware for 30 days but at the end of the trial period, Argus keeps running even though a registration reminder message is displayed.



              With Argus Monitor I can control the GPU fan (although I have set it by default), the CPU fan (also by BIOS default) and the best thing is that I can control the fans of the system by means of graphics associated to several sensors at the same time GPU and CPU temperature. It is perfect. In addition Argus Monitor shows many more graphs and configurations than SpeedFan. Also Argus does not give errors like in the speeds of the fans. SpeedFan showed me bad speeds of the type 65535 RPM. Argus Monitor is updated every so often and constantly adds new functionalities and new motherboard chips. It has even more functions than SpeedFan. With Argus I can control the CPU, GPU and System fans and put them in 3 modes: by default (BIOS), manually fixed or by software control (with dot graph). It's excellent.



              My configuration:



              BIOS: TEMP-CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-CPU 20-100%



              BIOS: TEMP-CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-SYS 30-100%



              DEFAULT: TEMP-GPU 60-80ºC -- FAN-GPU 20-100%

                  My configuration:



                  BIOS: TEMP-CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-CPU 20-100%



                  BIOS: TEMP-CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-SYS 30-100%



                  DEFAULT: TEMP-GPU 60-80ºC -- FAN-GPU 20-100%



                  ARGUS: TEMP-GPU/CPU 30-60ºC -- FAN-SYS 30-100%

                      up vote 0 down vote favorite Good day all. I have a window that pops up saying Fatal Program Failure (AnyDesk). This is what I have done so far: Uninstalled AnyDesk and reinstalled it. ( The window still appeared ) I disabled AnyDesk start up in Msconfig and the window seems to have disapeared. Lastly I made sure that AnyDesk worked by remoting into it, and it worked. Today the same window appeared.

                      Image
                      up vote 0 down vote favorite I need help with an issue we're facing in a project where we are moving from a Windows-based POS environment to one running on CentOS7. The problem consists of a number of factors, please find the details below: The supplier of our POS application will only deliver an application that is hard-coded to run in a 1024:768 4:3 format. The hardware we are using is a POS unit from HP that has a built-in 16:9 touch-screen. The employees using this solution is not supposed to see nor have access to anything but the POS application. Our sales organization demands that touch is an available feature when going live with the new POS environment.

                      QoS: MAC-Priority for clients behind a repeater

                      Image
                      1 1 I've setup a wireless network using a Linksys-Router (DD-WRT) as an AP and a TP-Link repeater for range extension. To manage bandwith for specific users, I've setup QoS-Rules on the AP (DD-WRT) using MAC-Priority: However the AP shows only the Repeater's MAC and the MACs of users inside the AP-Range. The MAC addresses of users behind the Repeater are not listed : The purple MAC is not listed in the AP-Clientlist. Its related to a device connected via the TP-Link repeater. Q: How can I setup MAC-Priority for repeater-clients? Do I simply add the purple MAC in AP-MAC priority list although it's not listed as a client? I want to setup specific priority instead of giving one priority for all clients behind the repeater by adding the repeater's MAC in the MAC priority list in the AP as ...
