  1. I use your program and i also recommend it to everyone i know.

    For me its perfect but i have one suggestion:

    If i have "pro" version of program why after update to new version you degrade it to "free" if i pay for it?

    This is so wrong, you should at list give "pro" version for some specific time to people who already pay for full version.

     

    If you put in your license code from ASC 6 Pro it will activate ASC 7 as well.

  2. Hi Enoskype

     

    I am very confused as to how a licence is required for a Beta version. This question has been raised numerous times on the forum regarding ASC 7 Beta, and I have not seen an explanation/answer from Iobit on the issue.

    I cannot comprehend how there could be a cost to a user who is willing to risk a beta version in order to assist the developers in correcting bugs/issues.

     

    Actually the license would be usable in asc 6 as well so if they do not find the beta to their liking it can still be used. I believe that ASC 7 ask for a license code because internally it is considered more or a pre-release (or preview release) more so than a beta. I know it says beta 3 but that is still what I believe. They also did the same thing with the final versions of asc 6 pro and ultimate betas.

  3. I am a Iobit fan and i mean i live my life with your app, on my laptop and on my mobiles..

     

    i have since update y asc pro software and had to re-install windows 8 and lost everything including beloved iobit apps...

     

    i have since downloaded your eta 3 version and i love it, i cant express the greatness this app is to EVERYONE it makes that old slow laptop feel and work just like it did when i first brought:-D it!! absolutely recommend to everyone....

     

    however i am a bit disappointed that since downloading its now asking me for activation key, in which i dont have ;-( i feel kinda lost ad out of iobits circle when that screen come up asking to basically re-join..

     

    HELP please Iobit

    Cody - is Iobitiolicious

     

    Cody if you have a license for ASC 6 Pro use that it works for ASC 7

  4. Hi TJB1982,

     

    Thanks for your feedback.

     

    Do you mean that your metro apps does not work after running ASC?

     

    If so, please read my post #272.

     

    Yes they only stopped working after I ran ASC 7. However when I clicked on them it sent me to the store and repaired them. Granted I needed to do them each one by one. It is working now but figured you could use the input and data from the infotool.

  5. Hi TJB1982,

     

    Thanks for your feedback and suggestion.

     

    For the issue about IObit Uninstaller, please send us the related screeenshots to help us look into it.

     

    For your suggestion to add a setting for game in system optimization, actually, you can run Turn Boost. There is a game mode to boost and optimize to give you a better gaming feeling.

     

    For the issue " my networking settings get changed and locked. No matter how many times I tell it to enable file sharing it will not switch over", please also describe it more clearly with related screenshots, too.

     

    Looking forward to your reply.

     

    Cicely I just wanted to let you know that the amd catalyst removal utility also results in breaking the display settings so it is not necessarily an iobit uninstaller issue. However it also restricts your access privileges in windows and completely takes out UAC... This may have also been the issue with the networking because you need administrator access in order to approve the changes. This all happens with the IOBIT uninstaller and the amd utility but I am leaning more towards it being a problem with AMD driver packaging. Best Regards.

    I do not have screenshots because I have re-installed windows since than the video driver glitch. I really do not want to recreate the issue again but it is something that I have noticed consistently with the uninstaller. As for the networking issue it is working ok now of course but it is spiratic it will do it and than if I reboot a couple times not be doing it anymore. But I have attached the log file from ASC just in case that could help pinpoint the networking issue. To be honest I don't know 100% if it is ASC related or windows networking getting touchy

  7. Win8 is AWFUL; it's MS's feeble attempt to copy an Android based OS and has been full of bugs since it launched. Hence the Beta v8.1 already.

    There's a REASON that XP is STILL used by many users (myself included) ~ it's probably the most stable thing they've ever brought out! And 12 years on it's coping very well with all the advancements to the digital world, thank you. Why should we be "forced to update", and spend even more money on Microsoft products that are unfinished and full of bugs? (just look at how many new OS's MS have brought out in the last few years, talk about covering your tracks! Eh, it's like the Win ME debacle all over again!)

    I am using a stable, fully legal, bought and paid for, copy of XP; have never used anything else on my PC thru all it's configurations / upgrades and mods. (it started life as a Dell Inspiron about 8 yrs ago) Our laptops have gone thru Vista, Win7 and now Win8 -UGH! I hate them all!! I think it sucks that Microsoft are dropping support for this and I for one will not be forced to upgrade. I'd rather install Linux when the time comes.

    As for you IoBit guys, 8-) please don't drop your support for this - I know there are many XP users out there that feel the same way that I do.

     

    Actually if you you look at the list of fixes in windows 8.1 very little has to do with major bug and more to do with improvements made to the user interface, customization, and improvements to Directx. Don't get me wrong windows 8 had its issues just like any other OS. It took 3 service packs and about 200 hotfixes to make windows xp stable. Windows 8 was pretty stable on release with the exception of a few rare situations. Windows 7 was not that bad either. Vista I agree should never have been released. I have run every version of windows for 3.1 to windows 8.1 and I think windows 8.1 is great.

  8. Suggestion For ASC 7

     

    It would be nice if the system optimization profiles you select in the settings had an option for gaming as well. Also I have noticed that after running the scan that my networking settings get changed and locked. No matter how many times I tell it to enable file sharing it will not switch over. It also than makes joining / making homegroups a problem. I use regular filesharing not the option to share with the homegroup

  9. IOBit Uninstaller

     

    I noticed that if you use IOBit uninstaller to remove a driver (such as amd catalyst) it causes damage to the operating system. I used it on my pc to uninstall the AMD Catalyst driver and than when I right clicked on my Desktop instead of saying Screen Resolution it just says display. I also noticed that some of the resolutions my monitor supports were not available and that the refresh rates were affected as well. It was no big problem for me because I needed to re-install windows anyway as I was updating to the Windows 8.1 RTM.

  10. Hi Da1nOnlyBNPL, TJB1982 and norton737,

     

    Thanks for all your feedbacks.

     

    @ Da1nOnlyBNPL, happy to hear that you love our products. :-D

     

    @ TJB1982 and norton737, I will report the suggestion to our product team for consideration. As norton737 said, the size should be quite big. Beside, users can get almost all IObit Products from Toolbox easily. :wink: But your suggestion also sounds good. I promise I will report it.:wink:

     

    Thanks for choosing IObit to care your PC.

     

    My whole reasoning for this suggestion is so we have a completely offline installer for those who want the full suite of your software installed on a computer with no internet or a slow internet connection. This would be useful for people installing it on a childs computer that they may not want internet access on or for professionals to install all products at once and be able to utilize all of the potential iobit offers without having to install each of the toolbox components individually. In addition some users may prefer to have an all inclusive installer backed up on a thumb driver or there backup hard drive etc. :-)

  11. That did the trick!

     

    Thank You . . . :-D

     

    It was no problem ken my pleasure. At least iobit will now be aware of the problem as well. That is what makes software like driver booster so complex it is not always just a matter of programming it is also a matter of the drivers working with one another. So at least you can rest assured that Driver Booster did what it was intended to do and this specific problem was actually a manufacter driver :):-D

  12. Manage My Mobile Component

     

    I just wanted to report I have a t-mobile Samsung Galaxy SIII and the Manage My Mobile incorrectly reports the presence of an SD. I do not have an SD card in this phone yet it comes from the factory with 16GB of internal memory. I do not know if this is the program reporting it incorrectly or the phone misreporting it.

  13. Where in the control panel, the device manager?

    Thanks.:?:

     

    The control panel should be accessible through your start menu and than click uninstall a program and look in the list for the realtek driver and uninstall that and than reboot if dolby still doesn't work you may need to uninstall that as well you should always be able to just re-run the driver booster to put them back on but I would do them one at a time. If there is software called conexant on the pc remove that as well.

  14. Hi Cicely,

    Like I said previously, Dolby audio won't work. When I boot, I get this message every time: "Please install a valid driver and software application combination."

    I've attached the file you requested. I hope it's has the answer you need.

    Thank you for your help. It's much appreciated. :-)

    Ken Fougère

     

     

    Ken I did a little digging on this issue for you and it is actually a conflict with the conexant audio driver or realtek drivers on your system if you go into the control panel and remove those drivers, restart the computer and than re-install the Dolby updates it should correct your problems :wink: Hope this helps you. It seems that the realtek drivers have a dolby component embeded in them already. You may need to uninstall the realtek drivers and the dolby advanced audio drivers and re-install them

  15. This is a possibility

     

    AMD Catalyst App Profile install:

    Running Windows 8.1 Preview. Used your Driver Booster to update AMD Catalyst App Profile, as that was all that needed updating. Had to "repair" all my items through the Windows Store afterwards. Really slowed my PC down for a couple reboots. Any ideas as to why?

     

    I think that is because the profiles are based on the windows 8 version of the catalyst which does not support directx 11.2 and therefore can't account for the tiled resources that was implemented in the new directx. The tiled resources drastically change how your gpu and cpu work together in accelerating the video and that coupled with the profiles may be contradicting each other. If you need certain setting for specific games you can always manually make a custom profile for it in the catalyst control center.:-D

  16. Hi,

     

    First of all, I would like to say that I am very happy with Driver Booster. After I installed Ver. 3.0 several day ago, the program found 3 outdated drivers and updated them succesfully. :-D

     

    I just downloaded Driver Booster Ver. Beta 3.1 today. It did found 6 outdated driver that the preceeding Ver. 3.0 did not found and installed 5 of them succesfully, but one of them keep be reported as outdated even after I have it updated. It seems that the problem is because both the old and the new driver have the same version number: 7.0.0.1011 but the release date of the new one is more recent:

     

    Driver Details:

     

    Currently installed: Version: 7.0.0.1011 Release date: 10-Jan-05

    Available update: Version: 7.0.0.1011 Release date: 15-Sep-06

     

    Devices using the driver (1)

    Intel® 82801 PCI Bridge -244E

     

    In the device manager, it's still the driver with the older date that is listed, so Driver Booster did not update the driver, and when I try to update the driver with the Device Manager "Update Driver" button, I get the message "The wizart could not find a better match for your hardware than the software you currently have installed." because of curse there is no newer version, but only a more recent copy of it.

    Maybe to resolve the problem, Driver Booster must ignore the date of the latest driver if it's version is the same as that of the old driver already installed...

     

    What is bizzare is that when I right-click on the driver file pci.sys the product version is listed as 5.1.2600.5512

     

    That device to me would seem to be a component of the chipset drivers from intel instead of a stand alone driver. However I do not know if that is relevant to the reason the driver booster can't find it to download maybe the updated version number is in the datebase but the overall chipset driver isn't just a thought. If your computer specs on your profile are current intel pulled the availability of that driver update
