hi Uncle, so after the release of the 3.00 your developing is dead? :p
Never. As long as he can use his hands and eyes he will continue to develop and polish RealTemp. :D
KURTZ: It's tough to walk away from an obsession. :D
I've been working on coming up with a fix for darkzone who has issues while running RealTemp on Windows Server 2008. I've found a few bugs that might cause a problem so I should be releasing a beta version shortly for anyone that is having issues. I haven't heard of too many problems so far so I'm assuming that RealTemp 3.00 isn't too bad for most users.
I might write a side program with graphing capabilities so it will be easier to see the slope of your temperature curves which will make playing around with calibration options (idle and TJMax) easier to visually see the effects of. As burebista says, there's always something I can think of.
Edit: I finally got confirmation that the Skull INI file option can be used to read both CPUs in a Skulltrail system:
http://img161.imageshack.us/img161/4186/skullci8.jpg
To get this to work you need to run two instances of RealTemp from two separate directories.
Add to the RealTemp.ini file:
Skull=2
to read your second CPU and use
Skull=1
or don't use any option and it will read the temperature data from your first CPU.
I think I need to add some code to prevent people with only 1 CPU from using the Skull= option.
Maybe an 8 core version of RealTemp has just moved up on the things to do list.
Can you imagine the size of the Settings window then? :D
burebista had a question for me. He is seeing some inconsistent results when comparing the RivaTuner built in load meter to what the RealTemp plug-in is saying during gaming.
The RealTemp Load meter is based on using internal timers within the CPU and I think that it is a little different than how traditional load levels are calculated.
I'm not sure what method is more accurate but the RealTemp Load meter seems to be accurately displaying the Load on my Q6600.
On a mobile processor with individual cores entering deeper C3/C4 sleep states, this method might not be accurate. I haven't tested this yet.
On my Q6600, I ran a Prime95 Small FFTs test and increased the load from idle to 1 thread, 2 threads, 3 threads, 4 threads and then back to idle.
Here's how the log file looks. For this CPU, the load looks like it is being correctly reported. Task Manager will show the load bouncing around from core to core but the average reported load is as expected.
Code:DATE TIME C0 C1 C2 C3 LOAD%

Rivatuner's CPU load plugin calculates load using the same (or similar enough) method as Task Manager (which even doesn't take into account clock modulation, how primitive :p:). I am not sure if this is of any help, or even if it is related, but these pics might give you some idea as to why they show up differently:
http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w...h_RMClock1.png
Running the cooldown test.
http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w...h_RMClock2.png
Just setting clock modulation to 12.5% and then back to 100%.
Thanks randomizer for showing an example of when the traditional load meter might not be accurate with a Core based processor.
I did some more testing and found that the Load meter in RealTemp is a lot more stable compared to the RealTemp - RivaTuner plug-in. It uses the same code but for some reason, the plug-in shows occasional load spikes and dips that aren't recorded by the load meter in the RealTemp program. I'm going to have a look to see if there is anything I can do to the plug-in to improve its stability.
Edit: I ran two threads of Prime95 Small FFTs and found that the MHz part of the RealTemp / RivaTuner plug-in seems to be causing a problem for the load meter. The Load Meter graph displays a lot of variability but calms right down when I turn the MHz off. Until I find a fix, I'd run either MHz or Load but not both at the same time.

Bad news messenger returns :D Sorry about that, but it's not working:

Tell me, I need a specific module or service to run? Why asking: I have some deactivated non-critical services on my machine, can they have an impact in this issue?
LE: I ran a CPU Cool Down Test, maybe is helpful.

It has taken a while but I think I finally understand what's causing this bug in Windows Server 2008 darkzone:
http://img443.imageshack.us/img443/6016/bugfa3.png
Since RealTemp 3.00 works fine in Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7; I think this issue is mostly a MS bug but I have a fix for it.
I think the next version of RealTemp for you darkzone is going to be a good one. :)
I thought about it already - here. But why the older version is running without this annoying bug?
I also hope the new version will be THE ONE :D
Noticed something weird today. I have always had a problem of cores 0 and 1 jumping up and down 5c whenever under load. It was like clockwork, after a few minutes under load it would drop 5c, then back up again after a couple mins. Process would repeat over and over again. Cores 2 and 3 would steady. Also I am not getting errors in Prime 95 during this.
Look at these two pics and check out the load %.
http://img02.picoodle.com/img/img02/...2m_58fc341.jpg
http://img33.picoodle.com/img/img33/...dm_f2e2b01.jpg
I have all eist and the other setting turned off in BIOS. I would assume that the load drop is why my temps are changing on cores 0 and 1. what would cause this?
Nevrsadie: I'm just looking into a RealTemp bug or two at the moment. Hopefully I'll have a beta available this weekend and you can see if that makes any difference.
http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/3/...alTempBeta.zip
Beta testing continues. :)
Here's my latest fix for darkzone's missing cores. It might also fix some occasional, odd looking Load % or temperature readings.
The RealTemp RivaTuner Load % plug-in looks much more stable now as well.
To install the new plug-in open up the RealTemp Settings window, click on the RivaTuner button, when the file requester pops up, click on Cancel. Click on the RivaTuner button a second time and find where RivaTuner.exe is located and click on OK and it should install this new version into the appropriate directory for you. The version of RTCore.dll is 3.04 as well so you can check the version number in your plug-ins directory if you want to be 100% sure. If you follow the directions, you should get the new version installed.
Start RivaTuner and select RTCore.dll in RivaTuner and it should be OK.
I've switched to a newer C++ compiler as well as 101 other changes so if anything is broken, let me know.
Thanks for update :)
Very strange situation ..

New beta RT 3.04 is running OK !

rig -2 (multi boot separate HDD's ) Quad core ( details in signature )
Xp-Pro SP3 (32bit) - NO GO !
Vista Home Prem 32 bit - NO GO !
W7 Beta -64bit - NO GO
all the same error pop-up '' missing - MFC71U.dll '' in all 3 different os
(never used/installed Riva Tuner on these 2 machines / 4 diff. separate op systems .. - could be this a problem ? )
will add screens if needed ... just need to 'Pshop' them together from diff. disks .. ..

Hi Unclewebb
Once again, thank you for your hard work and efforts. I have installed RealTemp 3.00, I am very impressed with the new features you have added in (GPU temp) as well as your revised TjMAX settings for the QX9650 (I must admit at first I was a bit :confused: as I misunderstood my TjMAX to be 95, but now it is 100, things seem to be slightly easier to calibrate).
http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/6233/...sortestea8.jpg
Eventually I might move to Core i7 (perhaps i975 or maybe a later revision) as at the moment I am more than happy with my Core2.
Kudos Unclewebb and best wishes.
Kind Regards
John
same problem, for now i solved it with geting mfc71u.dll from HERE and copy it in to realtemp dir.
Thnks for quick reply SoLoR
yes traced this file and found this MFC71U.dll in my Rig-1 %System32 folder [ mfc71u.dll ] ( file ver 7.10.3077.0 )
where the latest RT 3.04beta run OK // (sorry, my typo above i wrote MFCU71U.dll - was wrong i edited/fixed it) //
hmmmm just copied it to an other machine (xp pro 32bit ..// ..%system32 folder ... and still NO GO ? just next popup -
:) just copied it from event/error log to avoid typos again :)
----
Application popup: RealTemp.exe - Unable To Locate Component : This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.-----
PS!
well, didn't test further now (with VistaHP32-bit and W7-64bit) .. LoL i feel my self still too clumsy and unskillful with those new things :)
any way if i will found these missing dll's from other OpSys (other machine) then where ? what folder? should i copy them on Vista 32bit and W7 - 64 bit ) ? -
is this same '' grand old '' %System32/ ?
Thanks :)
I don't know what did you do, but now is not only the two cores missing, is worse: the entirely program's window is missing :confused: Program runs somewhere in background, but the window isn't visible at all. No error messages, no missing .dll's, no nothing. That window just doesn't appear.
I warned you this was beta software.
At least the load meter is looking good now in RivaTuner with two threads of Prime running.
http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/828/loadyb0.png
It looks much better than in this post above:
http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...postcount=3233
http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/3/...alTempBeta.zip
I added the mfc71u.dll file to this download. Long term, I'll likely be going back to using mfc42u.dll which everyone already has on their system.
I know that's a beta software, I wonder how much patience do you have with me to solve this annoying bug :up:
Monday I will run this new beta onto Server 2003 machine, that I have at my workplace, too see if this bug appear only when running on server type operating systems. Keep in touch.
I has no problem loading 3.04 on Windows 7(x32).
Now 3.05 need 10 sec to load :rolleyes:
We call that progress!
I think there is a bug in the old C++ compiler that I am using that is causing a problem for darkzone. I've been trying to find a fix for him but obviously some of my cures have been worse than the original problem.
3.05 starts up instantly on my computer.
I might have to write a specific version to correctly handle the C++ 7.1 / Server 2008 bug and then remove some of these patches and get RealTemp running correctly for the rest of us. If you have any trouble with any beta you can always use version 3.00 which works pretty good, most of the time.
Edit: Here's a little testing program to help me understand what function this bug might be in.

If you have a Quad core then the SetThread tool should look like this:

core 0: 1
core 1: 2
core 2: 4
core 3: 8
---------
All Cores = (1+2+4+8) = 15
The number in the box tells me what processor the thread was previously running on. Going down in the chart, for each core it tries to switch the thread to that core 4 times. On my computer, it works exactly as it is supposed to and shows in the second box going down that the thread got switched properly.
The number in the chart represents what core the process got switched to based on my chart. A 0 in this chart shows that the SetThreadAffinityMask function was not successful.
I hope when darkzone runs this little app on Server 2008 that it becomes clear exactly where this bug is.
If your OS shows anything unusual then post a pic.
