Kapitikarl Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Currently doing a rebuild. CL4 IMHO is broken. Installed it, the following hardware was missing: Commander mini temp 3 and 4 Intel core loads Commander mini LED So I reinstalled CL3 and these items came back without any trouble. If that is not testament that CL4 is a pile of poo I don't know what is. I have seen some of the messing around people have gone through to make their software work. I believe this is a real bad show on Corsairs part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper69 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 I'd forgotten how much I hated Link, until last night. After a rebuid, I've gone back to using my H110i GT (excellent cooler), the Asus fan expert didn't really seem to work that well, (wouldn't control the cooler fans if they were connected to the pump) so I stupidly tried to install Link 4. I got a message that an older version was installed so I checked, it wasn't, so I looked for the extra files and couldn't find them. I reinstalled Link 3, something, which appeared to work and came up with a message that it needed to restart to complete the installation, so I restarted the system, it came up with the same message, 4 times, so I uninstalled it and tried 4 again, no luck. I think that I will just connect the cooler fans to the motherboard and use Fan Expert. Once again, 10 out of 10 for hardware and 1 out of 10 for software.

snapper69 Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Thanks for that Ray (I think), I will have a look later, when I get home, if I have time before the 6 nations match. but if I have any more problems, I'll connect the fans to the motherboard and use Asus Fan Expert. It can stop the case fans if the temp is low enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Thanks for that Ray (I think), Asus Fan Expert can stop the case fans if the temp is low enough. It will assuming you have TH2 or RS1, but I had to guess and you should add the W10 Build to your PC specs ;): Stopping CL controlled fans is next on my hit list once I have sorted out the Mutex. Getting SIV to support this would be trivial, but the CL firmware needs changing to allow this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper69 Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Ok, thanks Ray, that got rid of the recurring message, however Link doesn't recognise my H110i GT. I get a Windows popup telling me that the last USB device I added has malfunctioned and Link sees an AsusTek motherboard CPU fan, spinning at about 2800.

red-ray Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I suspect the H110iGT firmware may have crashed. Power down the system, unplug it for two minutes and then check what Device Manager reports. The SIV [Link Devices] + [Link Status] panels would tell me more if you posted them.

snapper69 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I tried that and Link still didn't recognize it, so I spat the dummy, connected the rad fans to the motherboard, changed the pump lead to the water pump header on the motherboard and now I'm usingthe Fan Expert software. Last night it was running virtually silent (with the case side panels off) and the case fans stopped and the temps were in the mid 20's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red-ray Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I tried that and Link still didn't recognize it. As you have not posted the SIV screen shots I am unable to sensibly comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
