I had to reinstall my OS and am almost have things running in order, but have a small problem with CPU Meter. It gadget is showing threads instead of cores. I have tried to make adjustments with hardware info and the gadget. I verified the indexes and they look good. What am I missing to fix this problem with displaying threads instead of Cores. Thanks in advance for your assistance and my stupidity.

The CPU Meter shows "logical cores"; i.e., threads. It has always done this; even the original AddGadgets sidebar gadget worked this way. This is because Windows does not see physical cores, it sees logical cores, and reports usage and performance data on a per-logical core basis. It is not possible to change this behavior.

Hi all,

I recently installed 7.5.0 after updating from Win10 to Win11. Everything works a treat, with the sole exception being the GPU Meter.

Can anybody help me diagnose this?

I'm currently running a 2070S Founders Edition on an Asus TUF x570+. I've made sure that HwInfo displays my card. Am I missing some crucial detail?

Did you follow the instructions for mapping the HWiNFO sensors?

I got the GPU meter working with the guide that I found, but Drives meter seems to give me problems. (Lack of sleep too)
So, If someone kindly could point me to the right direction and explain how do I get those percentages working?
Please, thank you. :)

This looks like a classic case of corrupted performance counters. See the Gadgets wiki article here:

I don't think that's the issue, because I saw it briefly (few seconds) to 1-2% and then back to 0%
Or maybe it is, if it should be more active?
I'll check your link, thanks.

I suppose it is this?
Displays percent disk utilization for each drive, plus the total.
Edit: Well, i'm copying files between drives and it show much better (bigger) numbers. Thank you.
