Hi everybody:

I have been to the bios and changed the value of Vcore to 1.80V manually (and the "manual" says the bios supports "manual" adjustment), but as i got into windows, the software VIA HWM gave me a Vcore value=> 1.91v????

The Vcore value in Bios menu => 1.85V

What the hack??/ Could someone tell me what's going on here????

THanx alot

most boards read the Vcore a little higher in Windows than in the BIOS. Don't worry too much about it.

My KT7A did the same thing, with the same readings. I think the reading in Via HWM is the correct one. Mine started doing this after a long burn-in session. It's actually a good thing if you need more vcore.
