ASUS update Dual Intellegent Processors 5 (DIP5) error loading appicon fix



  Asus recently released a new version of native software to overclock and to monitor their motherboards. Few words first. This software some users found buggy, other report not effective - preferring manual overclocking. IMHO this utility is worth trying especially if you are new to overclocking and afraid to burn the CPU or memory or other chips. Another reason to using it is ability to easy control Asus`s custom controllers - EPU and TPU those are using for better control stability and power consumption of your system. But this software really have some problems with Windows even though you can ignore most of this errors. For example,  in Win 8 and Windows 10 when system starts there is an error when  starting DIP power service and this leads to set your power mode every time when system starts - not serious  but a bit annoying.
 So that is why every update users wait and hope bugs will be fixed and it will  become more useful.

   This update , according to ASUS site description, addressed to make it compatible with Intel ITMB driver but in fact it appears to be a completely new version of DIP5 software. It have re-designed interface. Seems to me that Asus has been working on new version Ai3 suite while Intel has begun shipping its new CPU`s 6xxx series aka Broadwell-E.  It has new ITMB 3.0 version (you can read more about Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology ). Asus rushed to make this updated version  available for download and miss the other applications from this suite (Ai Charger+, USB Charger, USB 3.0 boost, Push Notice etc) And this leads users, who have previous version of Ai3 suite, got errors after installing this updates. 
Here is a simple fix of this image errors.

First solution is to remove previous version of Ai3 suite including all its components:
Ai Charger+, USB 3.0(1) boots, Push Notice, USB Charger, EZ Update, System Information.
Its good idea to reboot and do Ai Cleaner to remove any settings left after previous Ai3 suite.
Then install new DIP5 and enjoy life!   If you need any of those apps - at least USB 3.0 boost personally I found useful - you have to install them from previous Ai3 suite (when you start installer from old version of AI3 suite it will show that DIP5 already installed and you can continue installing only missing apps) but after that you will need to fix AppIcon error manually  as I described below or wait when Asus release completely new suite.

Second solution (if you want to keep all Ai3 suite apps, not only DIP5).
As I wrote in first solution - remove all old version of Ai3 (recommended) and install new DIP5 1.03.50 package. Then, start installer from previous Ai3 suite and check what else you want to install from this suite. After that you will need to put AppIcon.png file into applications directory where it searching for image. For example if error windows shows "Can not load image C:\Program Files (x86)\ASUS\AI Suite III\EZ Update\res_gadget\AppIcon\appicon.png". Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\ASUS\AI Suite III\EZ Update\res_gadget\AppIcon\ and copy there  image file appicon.png
   I took one here "C:\Program Files (x86)\ASUS\AI Suite III\Version\Resource\AppIcon\appicon.png").
     Or you can took one as template and draw your own icons ) After you put appicon.png to all location where error requester points.

Enjoy !

Intel I218V and Intel I211-AT driver solution for Windows Server 2012 R2

Image
 Its appears to be a common problem with this network adapters and server versions of Windows. This post solves problem with Server 2012R2, but it can be used for other versions of Windows Server i.e 2008, 2008R2, 2012 and 2016. There are now official drivers for Intel I211-AT and Intel I218V. But there are drivers for same adapters with different letter indexes. Idea is simple - Intel separates chips for desktop and server versions, forcing  to setup more expensive versions of this chips for servers. I`m not sure if there any serious difference, but  Asus  use desktop versions for their motherboards since they targets for desktop segment. So its incorrect to blame Asus for not supporting Server versions of Windows on support page. At the same time many users would like to install Windows  server  OS on their Asus motherboards. Funny situation - Gigabyte uses cheap Realtek network adapters on their motherboards and have no problems. But Intel adapters are more powerful.

Asus Z97 Deluxe - its problems and hidden traps

Image
Pr eamble :  I`m back on Asus. Since my post where I wrote that I`m leaving Asus serious changes happens. Asus made a large work to lift up quality and engineering.   But there are still some "spots on the sun". After about a year spent on Asus Z87 Deluxe/Dual that was about perfect  I moved to Z97 Deluxe WiFi &NFC. I thought upgrade will pass smooth since both systems about the same except  few small changes. But I was wrong. Looks like Asus made this board in a hurry and miss some pesky things. First of all strange accessory pack - why they put wireless charger to this motherboard  ? It does not have any relation to it. But the main mystery is Thunderbolt EX II /Dual PCI ex card. Why they put this accessory board instead of placing those 5520 chip on main board.  Now its not only took one PCI ex port but also add dangling wires inside and outside. So , if you would like 3-way SLI or Crossfire you will have to decide - SLI or Thunderbolt ? Lets have a look on othe

How to choose printer for everyday use ? Information for customers who going to buy printer but hard to choose the right one.

At first I thought it will be comprehensive guide in buying printer for home users, but soon I found out that it is a very complex article. So I will try to write only summary to  provide you with basic ideas how to select printers so this post will be  universal and easily  understandable.    In this post I am gonna write only about ink jet printers. It is common type of printers people buying for home use because of price , ability to print in color and ability to print photos. If you not going to do color printing I guess you will buy laser jet printer without any doubts.    I got my first ink jet printer in early 90s - it was Soviet black and white printer MC6313 - it has very compact size even by modern standards. Huge difference in quality and noise to matrix printers that was popular at that period of time.    Soon first color ink jet  printer arrives - Epson Stylus Color, then was Color II and after that time - color printing at home goes cheaper and cheaper and becomes m
