Aorus Engine Problems

[soundrunner96]

Hi all,

I've been having problems running the Aorus Engine for my graphics card recently. I installed the program over the summer when I got the card and all was well. However in the past few months the program has not been able to run at all. It is set to begin on startup but it doesn't appear to be running at all. Additionally, launching it from the desktop both regularly and in admin mode brings up the prompt to allow changes but no program ever pops up. 

I've tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it a few times as well as uninstalling any other GPU overclocking programs I have (Precision Boost, Afterburner). Any suggestions on next steps? I would like to be able to to use it to set the fans and RGB on the card but having it for overclocking would be a plus.

 

Specs:

Windows 10 1809

Latest Aorus Engine and nvidia drivers

The card is the Aorus GTX 1060 G6 rev.2

 

Thanks for the help!

Only install one of the 3 overclocking softwares you have.

 

To fully rid them, you may need to reinstall Windows. But, yeah. The 3 pieces of software are fighting for control.

I spent a lot of time messing around in Aorus engine with my Gigabyte 2080's and OC'ing them.  A word of advice:

 

Get RGB fusion for control of your mobo/gpu/cooler RGB. 

 

Install one of the other GPU tweakers (afterburner).  Aorus Engine is super slow, glitchy, and probably the worst one I dealt with.

Thanks for the tips, I originally just had Aorus but I got the others after seeing others suggesting them to use and wanted to try the options out there. I'll get RGB fusion and probably just go with afterburner. Thanks for the help!

After installing RGB Fusion I have been getting BSODs when using or exiting out. I don't know if is directly related but it started right after installing. It says there is a problem with gdrv3.sys. Any idea what it may be? I'm thinking that I will just wait to deal with this until I build a new computer hopefully this summer, just won't get any of the sweet sweet RGB performance boost.
