What cpu are you using ???
That's the only reason I can think of...
@wez
Yeah HWMonitor pro is what I use most of the time.
I'm using v1.10 which was the latest the other day...
The voltage level's aren't quite right, especially the 12v.
And the rest of the voltages are just useless.
Fan rpm speeds don't work in it either.
And the optional temp sensors are missing from it.
I gotta use firefox to upload a screenshot to show you..., brb :\
Ok, uped a screenshot showing you the diff between the 2.
I'm gonna install the asus probe it software and show you guys why I can't use it.
Oh btw, I don't have any fans hooked to the bopard that's why everest doesn't show them.
When I do everest works in that respect but hwmonitor doesn't.
Edit:
This is what the asus program does on my system.
It says the bios, cpu, vga, etc etc fails.
Something to do with the performance counters or wmi in windows.
And if it didn't have that prob lol, it's not much in terms of good looks lol.
Clunky looking thing, no offence.
I wish it was programmed a bit diffrently and had a better interface.
I know that's not likely to happen though.
I can use everest's html/registry interface to get my readings in xp and win7's desktop (active desktop or gadget).
Prob is, in win7, the gadget interface takes up 50megs for no reason, and an extra process.
I don't use gadgets right now because of that.
That and everest needs to be running in the bg, which adds on to that.
Not worth using a 100megs for temp's and voltage readings.
:\
Well I got other uses for the active desktop stuff but win7's implimentation of it sucks.
One of those opt temps are the mem sticks heatsink temp, the one stick closest to the cpu.
Another is my pwm heatsink temp and the other my ambient temps.
I dn which one is which at the moment lmao...
Shame everest doesn't have a branch off program only for temps and voltages.
I'de be using that if they did.
I was hoping hwmonitor would update for the ch4 board, with corrected div/mul methods for reading the values on this board, plus the missing stuff.
But so far no go on that one.
I thaught about trying mbm5.
The isa bridge chip is support by that program.
Likely it would only find a few of the things though and not all of it.
But apperently I can't get it to run in win7.
Speedfan.
Well, I can't run that at all anymore.
I haven't been able to run that for I think 2 years now.
It crashes on the cpu usage % reading when it's starting up.
Speedfan and the asus probe software don't run on my system because of the tweaks I did.
Which is my fault...
But that's because of the way they were written, if they were written better then they would run...
If anyone knows of an alternative that shows as much as everest does, I'm willing to try that...
Edit:
Oh CnQ...
@mav2000
Possible that you may need to set the cpu and cpu-nb voltages to auto or offset mode.
CnQ seems to work with a directly set multiplier though, you don't need it set to auto, at least I don't.
Check with cpu-z to see the active pwr state mode (cpu speed).
Hwmonitor helps with it's vcore value and cpu watt usage (should go down to around 60w's on idle).
And tMonitor shows you when turbo mode kicks in and etc.
I use all 3 to see what is going on.
You need the latest amd cpu driver though for it to work 100%.
In win7, min performance lv I have set to 5% (pwr management, advanced).
In xp, well, I reccomend you have it set to always on.
Because when you make a special power config for it (reg or cmd line), it acts up when switching pwr states.
The performance is horrible I mean.
Asus's epu program will make that power profile for you in xp.
You don't need that program get it to work though, just the amd driver.
But it does help make you a power profile if you don't allready have one like it in xp.
Like I said though, I don't reccomend using it.
This is the cause for the performance prob in xp when you try to fully use all of your pwr states:
Thing is there is allmost 0 info on these settings and trying to adjust without that info, well I've tried a few times.Code:[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Throttle] ;"PerfCriticalTimeDelta"=dword:000493e0 ;Default, (300000 Dec), 300ms ;"PerfDecreaseAbsoluteModifier"=dword:00000001 ;Default, 1% ;"PerfDecreaseMinimumTime"=dword:000249f0 ;Default, (150000 Dec), 150ms ;"PerfDecreasePercentModifier"=dword:0000001e ;Default, (30 Dec), 30% ;"PerfDecreaseTimeValue"=dword:00002710 ;Default, (10000 Dec), 10ms ;"PerfDegradeThrottleMinCapacity"=dword:00000032 ;Default, (50 Dec), 50% ;Disables Throttling A CPU Using Acpi "PerfEnablePackageIdle"=dword:00000000 ;Disabled ;"PerfEnablePackageIdle"=dword:00000001 ;Enabled ;"PerfIncreaseAbsoluteModifier"=dword:00000001 ;Default, 1% ;"PerfIncreaseMinimumTime"=dword:000249f0 ;Default, (150000 Dec), 150ms ;"PerfIncreasePercentModifier"=dword:00000014 ;Default, (20 Dec), 20% ;"PerfIncreaseTimeValue"=dword:00002710 ;Default, (10000 Dec), 10ms ;"PerfMaxC3Frequency"=dword:00000032 ;Default, (50 Dec), 50% ;"PerfTimeDelta"=dword:00000000 ;?
Been able to force the max performance level but that's about it.
:\
Win7's config for this stuff is totally diff.
It's pretty much adjustable in the cpl and actually works good ^^.
