I get this annoying beeping every time I use Uguru to moniter my temps because my 120mm sys fan can only reach 1950 rpm, short of the 2000 rpm lower limit. There's got to be a way to fix this, does anybody know how? I already have the latest bios release. Thanks.

In the AbitEQ program click on the "monitor settings" button and adjust the threshold on the fan in question. Looks like you can set it to a minimum of 1000RPM which will stop that alarm from going off.

What version of the uGuru software are you running? I'm using the latest from:

ftp://ftp.abit.com.tw/pub/download/utilities/uguru/1.18/uguru-v118.exe

Try that and see if it gives your the option to lower it to 1000.

Hey, I did some hunting around the registry, you might be able to accomplish what you want by looking in the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ABIT\HardwareMonitor\ai7Preference\FAN3

There's some values called "HiBound" and "HiLimit" and "LoBound" and "LoLimit". I'm not sure which one you want to edit but its worth a shot.

Thanks Arch, I tried that too earlier, but just in the config files in the uguru folder I made. Anyways, after 2 uninstalls and reinstalls of the updated uguru, it's working well. Thanks again for your help.

I used the AIdef.ini files in the Uguru folder to completely disable my cpu fan settings as I am watercooled. The setting for the sys fan is there somewhere too. Just make sure you back it up before you start messing around that way you can always replace it if needed. One other thing, after you alter the setting in the aidef file you have to go into the monitor settings in EQ and push the default and apply button.
