SpeedFan is diasbled automatically after waking up from the sleep mode.

I am using SpeedFan. In the 'Advanced' settings, all 'PWM mode's have been set to 'manual', i.e. controlled by SpeedFan. But after waking up from the sleep mode, all will be automatically changed to 'DO NOT USE', i.e. controlled by the BIOS, and they won't revert to 'manual' unless SpeedFan is restarted.

Does anyone else have the same problem? Is there any solution?
On my ASUS H81M-A, all ASUS services, AI Suite 3 and Fan Xpert 2 have already been disabled. But it doesn't fix the problem.
 
Don't use Speedfan. Uninstall it.

Connect your fans to the motherboard and use the utility software that came with the motherboard to monitor and control fan speeds.
 
The utility software that came with the motherboard to monitor and control fan speeds is ASUS Fan Xpert, but it displays no motherboard and hard disk temperatures, so I have to use SpeedFan to adjust the case fan speed automatically according to the hard disk temperature.
