Sometimes (seems to be mainly after system is powered on after having cooled
off) I get the boot message that Hardware monitor detected an error and I
should go into the power menu to check it out.
When I go in there, I don't see anything that jumps out at me as really
wrong. The temps are about 100º F for MB and 120º for CPU. Both fans
spinning a couple thousand RPM. Voltages are close to what the legend
indicates. I do notice the CPU core voltage is a little higher (1.55v) than
the max. voltage indicated on the box the CPU came in (1.525v).
How can I tell what the "hardware monitor" is complaining about? I have
found no documentation on what ranges of values the monitor considers
acceptable. I would hate to disable all the monitoring to get rid of the
error.
I wonder if the power supply just takes a couple of seconds too long to
stabilize, or maybe the cheap case fan spinning up to speed generates the
error?
I wish the BIOS was a little more explicit about indicating which
measurement it considers a problem.
If I could get the error consistently, I could disable the monitors one at a
time to determine which on is the problem, but I can't.
Thanks,
