Hey guys,
Helping a friend out. He recently had a refresh of his old Z170 board to a Z270 to better complement his 7700K unit; he also added a STRIX 1080Ti (A11G) and herein lies an issue.
Specs are:
STRIX Z270H - BIOS version updated over internet to 1009 (July '17)
i7 7700K
G.Skill 3200 2x8GB Kit
1x HDD as main storage in non-RAID configuration
1x HDD as backup storage
Windows 10 Pro installed on primary HDD, auto-patched to 16299.25 (never used during fresh install, was only usable after FCU 16299 build patch)
Seasonic Prime Platinum 750W
BIOS configuration:
XMP profile for 3200 MHz enabled
CPU running sync all cores with MCE Disabled at 45x100
VCore running adaptive mode @ 1.164, negative offset at -0.015 (observed spikes during benchmarks to 1.184v)
LLC set to Level 6
IA / DC set to 0.01
Power saving mode enabled
So what happens is;
1. We install everything bundled on the motherboards' & GPU's CD after Windows Patch (Except Norton & Chrome) - MOBO Shipped with BIOS 0809 or 0909, whatever is dated December 2016
2. After installation, everything works fine. AI Suite works good, couple of burn ins and restarts, no issues. Change of CPU fan curves possible. Created custom fan curves for GPUTweakII no issues. EZUpdate updates only Realtek despite having newer AISuite versions on site.
3. Restart issue for FCU apparent but only for GPUTweak and ledlightingcontrolservice.exe or something to that matter. Added context menu registry fix to combat this issue.
4. Suddenly, everytime PC starts, ASUSGPUFanServer.exe error occurs. Checked eventviewer, issue is due to Kernelbase.dll in C:\Windows\System32. Issue is observed as follows:
5. We also noticed that AISuite 3 does not auto start, cannot be started etc.
6. Uninstalled AISuite and GPUTweakII, restart PC using context menu
7. Installed latest available versions from MyProducts page for STRIX Z270H for Windows 10 64Bit,
8. Encounter the same error.
Would the AISuite installer for my Maximus X Hero work on his board? Sorely need your advice.
Thank you!

4. Suddenly, everytime PC starts, ASUSGPUFanServer.exe error occurs. Checked eventviewer, issue is due to Kernelbase.dll in C:\Windows\System32. Issue is observed as follows:
- When PC comes to a fresh start, GPUTweakII launching causes the error
- Switching 0dB fan mode back and forth shows the error prompt
- Setting anything related to GPU Fan via GPUTweakII causes the error to show
- Error sometimes leaves GPU to consistently run at 36% fan speed, when you change something, sometimes it will consistently follow fan curve
5. We also noticed that AISuite 3 does not auto start, cannot be started etc.
6. Uninstalled AISuite and GPUTweakII, restart PC using context menu

Where can you see remote procedure call fail? AI Suite doesn't start at all for us and we're unable to even see any log via the eventvwr.
Adding to this thread a private message from Gutterhead:
Hello, I too am having that fan error with GPU Tweak II.
I cannot reply yet to your post because I just registered here at this forum, and must wait 24 hours to post.
Perhaps you can reply to your OP and mention this? The more people who report it will bring attention to
the issue.
Something to add also, is it because of https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?98810-Asus-AI-Suite-II-ASUSGPUFanServiceEx-exe-not-working... the intel vulnerability patch? Because everything is going wonkers LOL

Now thinking if I should pause my updates or not. Hard to decide given the criticality of the meltdown patch.
This crap is now happening to me :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Solved!
The following issues (at least for me, on my Maximus X Hero x i7 8700K x ROG STRIX 1080Ti OC) have been resolved by the beta AISuite3 (DL Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EBU...ew?usp=sharing)
GPUTweakII issues
AISuite3 issues
UAC issues (for GPUTweak, install latest version available for your chip on the ASUS portal)
Issues that arise after patching KB4056892 (OS Build 16299.192)
Ensure that build 192 has already been patched prior to uninstalling old AI Suite. What I did was to uninstall AI Suite, perform a clean boot, run the cleaner (link: https://rog.asus.com/forum/showthread.php?95038-AI-Suite-3-cleaner), perform another clean boot, then install. Plus a couple of restarts to check if issue is truly fixed.
Hope it helps!
