Gadget not updating hard disk temperature in service mode

Post by hunnypuppy »

When running in service mode the temperature of the hard disks are not updated in teh gadget. When in application mode it works fine, but as a gadget it just gets stuck at the temp it started with. Teh disk space is updated, the activity sleep/active also does not update regularaly, but temperature never updates. However the icon in the system tray show the right temperature even in service mode, just hte gadget.

running windows 7 32bit

Thanks for your message.

This sounds interesting.
In theory, the information to be used by the gadget should be updated properly.
If you open REGEDIT and navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HD Sentinel, there should be a key called "Gadget". This is the source of information represented in the gadget. Can you please check if you see the actual temperature (which is shown on the tray)?
Maybe if you can use Report -> Send test report to developer option (when you use Hard Disk Sentinel in application mode), that may help to check the issue.
