The Layout tab lets you fine-tune how AIDA64's user interface appears and functions.

Preferences / Layout

Show or Hide Information Pages

  • Enable "ASPI" page: View or hide information about Advanced SCSI Programming Interface (ASPI) devices. Disable this if AIDA64 crashes when accessing the ASPI page.
  • Enable "Audio Codecs" page: View or hide details on available audio codecs. Consider disabling this during network audits to save memory.
  • Enable "DMI" page: View or hide data about the system's motherboard, BIOS, and other components retrieved from DMI (Desktop Management Interface). Disable this if the information seems inaccurate.
  • Enable "OpenAL" page: View or hide details on the OpenAL audio interface. Disable this during network audits to avoid potential conflicts with audio drivers.
  • Enable "OpenGL" page: View or hide details on the OpenGL graphics interface. Disable this during network audits to avoid potential conflicts with video drivers.

Manage Menus

  • Enable "DirectX" menu: View or hide all DirectX-related pages. Consider disabling this during network audits to save memory.
  • Enable "Config" menu: View or hide pages showing Windows configuration details.
  • Enable "Database" menu: View or hide pages showing information on installed database software.
  • Enable "Benchmark" menu: View or hide all benchmark test pages.

Organize the Interface

  • Sort menu and submenu items alphabetically: Sort menu entries for easier navigation, especially with many enabled pages.

  • Display original CPU clock for mobile Intel processors: Show the base clock speed of mobile Intel CPUs, regardless of throttling.
  • Hide all benchmark reference results: Hide all scores in the benchmark comparison list.
  • Hide the best benchmark reference results: Hide the top half of scores in the benchmark comparison list.
