I face following problem: If I disable AAM, then the Standby at Windows
Power Setting will not kick in, e.g., when I set Standby after 20 minutes,
it will not go to standby even after 20 minutes has elapsed. It will
function correctly again after I enable the AAM setting in quietHDD.
One more thing, if I left the status AAM disabled by quietHDD and return to
eeeHDD, the Standby will not work also, it will only work if I enable AAM
on quietHDD then revert back to eeeHDD.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Have Acer Aspire One 722 with win7 64-bit home premium
2. quitehdd running and functional when start/resume sleep, but ....
3. switch to battery mode and DC parameters are not set. When you go to 
settings and aply parameters, all is ok for now. 

Using last build.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. use QuietHDD with 780G chipset, AMD newest SATA drivers

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run quietHDD on W2K Pro with shell32.dll version 5.0.3900.7155

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Running the program results in the fatal error "The procedure entry point 
IsUserAnAdmin could not be located in the dynamic link library 
SHELL32.dll." The program then terminates.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
quietHDD 1.5 build 250

Microsoft Windows 2000
5.00.2195
Service Pack 4
with SHELL32.DLL version 5.0.3900.7155
all updates applied

Please provide any additional information below.
A quick check with Google seems to indicated that earlier versions of 
shell32, like those found in Windows 2000, do not correctly implement 
IsUserAnAdmin.

Hello,
I feel it as simple as running the exe, there is no installation to do. And 
therefore no uninstallation.
The program does not launch when you execute the exe, it's just?
So the changes made ​​through the software (AAM enabled, for example) are 
not permanent? And it must be run each time in order to apply the changes on 
the HDD?  Right?

Thank you for responding.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
quietHDD latest version from this site. Using Win7.

I send an "infected" file to avg and just got positive reply. They really think 
its a trojan. As i mentioned before, everything worked fine, until AVG updated 
its virus defs...  

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Press from Traymenu "Disable System Suspend"
2. Item "Setings" will get a tick, not "Disable System Suspend"

already fixed, but needs to be released as build #250

What's missing is a way to preserve options across reboots.
I always have to launch quietHDD again because my settings are not persistent.

Maybe you could implement either a windows service.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Suspend OS
2. Wake it up
3. Check for clicking sounds

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: No clicking sounds, APM is restored to what was initially set in 
quiteHDD GUI (254).
Observed: Clicking sounds, APM is set to drive default value and not 
restored/applied.

Secondly, is there a Linux version of this?  I noticed the problem in Ubuntu as 
well.  BTW, I have an ASUS 1015PED eee netbook with a WDC hardarive (not 
Seagate) and it has the same issue.  I'm really surprised ASUS does not have a 
firmware fix for this.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. download file
2. virus scan
3. TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen detected

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?


Please provide any additional information below.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. QuietHDD starts with Windows 7 HP x64
2. First HDD is setting APM OK
3. External HDD not setting APM

What steps will reproduce the problem?
I am using Windows 7 64 Home Premium on an ASUS UL30VT-A1. I have task manager 
set to run QuietHDD at startup, whether the user is logged in or not, no stored 
password, using /NOTRAY. QuietHDD does start on system startup and is 
effective. One other reason I use task manager is to bypass the UAC prompt for 
QuietHDD that otherwise can't be automatically bypassed without disabling UAC 
because QuietHDD is not digitally signed with a certificate from a trusted CA.

If I put the system to sleep QuietHDD seems to stay running (I've tried a 
handful of times). If I wait for the system to go to sleep per power management 
settings when I wake it QuietHDD is no longer running and the desired APM 
setting is no longer in effect. I can't tell what caused it to exit, there are 
no error windows.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Build 250 Win 7 64.
