GENiEBEN Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 With older AGP cards I frequently get the "Non-Default-Settings" error which doesn't permit the benchmark to run. Even with freshly installed drivers and default settings there. Right at the moment I got the prob with a MX440-8x 64 bit. Some fix yet? Always annoying when you can't complete your benchmark set cause of cranky AM3. It's always an issue with this bloody old cards because they don't work with default settings so wrapper complains. I will change the behaviour to accept non-default settings but clearly print them in interface. Quote
trodas Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) It's always an issue with this bloody old cards because they don't work with default settings so wrapper complains. I disagree. I did not want to cause any stir, but I do believe that the original Aquamark3 will run for Masterchief79 just fine, as it did for me on the nVidia Vanta LT. I would suggest him to try and report back. I do believe that there is some wrapper error... Because these cards are somewhat crappy (Vanta LT = no no, for me - I put there ATI Rage 3D Pro 128 (yet another crap card) and it worked just fine w/o reinstalling windows or HWbot Aquamark wrapper or changing anything else) ... And what is even more important, that the original Aquamark 3 run at default settings on the pesky Vanta LT. That itself seems to prove that the settings are irellevent - eg. get reported as "can't work with default settings:, but in fact it work when started alone. Edited January 18, 2014 by trodas Quote

Old wrapper did not check for default settings, hence it had nothing to complain about. Quote
trodas Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 I did not meant old wrapper. I do meant original Aquamark3 run w/o any wrapper. That is what I do believe will run for Masterchief79 just fine. Quote
Masterchief79 Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 Indeed, it does. The original AM3.exe always works, unless some drivers aren't properly installed or the hardware just isn't capable of running the bench (not DX6-compatible). So that's fine there. Just the wrapper reports the Non-Default-Settings Error with some older cards. If it would help you, I could make a list, I've got quite a few cards here. Any chances of getting it to work with newer drivers? And thanks for help so far, didn't really expect an answer so quickly Quote
trodas Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 I was ready to bet on that. Because all the time the percieved reason why there is the failure with the Vanta LT card was, that the card cannot handle the default settings. I hardly can object about it, because the card is so old, so it seems reasonable. Then it turned out, that w/o wrapper it just run fine at default settings. And to make things even worser, just replacing it for another so so old card, ATI Rage 3D Pro 128 make things instantly work (using the wrapper). And then I put the Vanta LT there again and it still does not work. Beats me Maybe the wrapper did not like old nVidia cards? On 6800GS/8600GT it just run fine, on the top of all that. Quote
K404 Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Would it help if you released multiple installs, tuned/tweaked for different OS or hardware? Quote
Team.US Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Just a followup to my problem, I was having the same error in x86 XP then I shut off d3d overrider and it worked Quote
GENiEBEN Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Just a followup to my problem, I was having the same error in x86 XP then I shut off d3d overrider and it worked Strange, but did you also check out the patch I posted? Quote
Team.US Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 negative reinstall x64 now will let you know Quote
Crew Strunkenbold Posted January 24, 2014 Crew Posted January 24, 2014 This might be something for you. Your wrapper says HD4600, but Im pretty sure its done with his GTX770. Seems like detection needs a little fine tuning. Quote
GENiEBEN Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 This might be something for you.Your wrapper says HD4600, but Im pretty sure its done with his GTX770. Seems like detection needs a little fine tuning. Well for starters he's using an old version that is no longer supported. As for detection, the GPU info is provided by GPU-Z, which always puts the IGP first, so in a IGP+Dedicated the default card used in submission form will be the IGP. Haven't found a workaround yet.

GENiEBEN Posted February 10, 2014 Posted February 10, 2014 Is this the same bug? Reported as a HWBOT engine bug but I think the image is just missing from the data file.http://bugs.hwbot.org/browse/HWBOT-1325 Yes, same bug. The screenshot wasn't taken at all on Windows XP with JPG option selected. Only v2.54 was affected, not sure if you could filter them. Quote
mr.paco Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Used v2.55.110 bench ran fine score shows in AquaMark but the score dosnt show in gui when finished. Same with v2.53.108. HW used 3770K, Matrox Millenium P650 PCIe , WIN-7/32bit No errors or anything just no score showing. Quote
mr.paco Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Send me the log.txt from v2.55. Done... Quote
Aleslammer Posted February 23, 2014 Posted February 23, 2014 Got a problem with a Quadro NVS 280 AGP and lastest wrapper (older version does the same thing), launching from the wrapper auto setting fails to start AM3. Using the manual setting can run AM3 but when exiting back to windows wrapper is gone, sent the log files. Quote
basco Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 no offense against dentlord but this is impossible with 4770k at 3500mhz? is this reading error? http://hwbot.org/submission/2505095_dentlord_aquamark_radeon_hd_6950_474010_marks Quote
GENiEBEN Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Cpu freq is reported by bios, so it is usually bugged. Quote
basco Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) cant we just make screenshot mandatory for all submissions(all-benchmarks not only aquamark)-i always do since 2007 so i see no prob for others doing this. Edited March 5, 2014 by basco Quote
GENiEBEN Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 The hardware info displayed in the wrapper is purely informative and is not a replacement for CPUZ+GPUZ rule. Quote
steponz Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 seems to be broken in XP x64 tried running without wrapper and same error Getting this same error in Windows 7 64 bit. Runs fine with older card, just not 780 ti... Anybody know how to get this working? Tried all different drivers.. SP1 and non SP1. Different versions of Hwbot benchmark. Doesnt work.... Quote
steponz Posted March 28, 2014 Posted March 28, 2014 Tried patch... different compatability modes.. run as administrator... still not working... wtf... what am I missing. Quote
vipernet Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 I've tried this using numerous cards on my old asrock 4coredual sata 2.0 version at it just crashes the gui once the benchmark has finished. Quote
