It there a program for the Shuttle Ak31a that will...

[Hamham]

allow you to see your cpu/case temps while in windows?

thx for your help:beer:

Hi Hamham, welcome to the Forum,
The best program that you can get to monitor Temps, Voltages and Fan Rpm's is MotherBoardMonitor, that you can found here (http://mbm.livewiredev.com/) ;)

Hey The Doors, you keep telling everry one to get MBM but I downloaded it and when I set-up 1 of the temp. monitors, it went off telling me that my Mobo was at 123degrees C! did I do something wrong? I would love to be able to see what my temps are at all times.

Thanks for the help if you have the time! :)

[Warlord2]

it should work fine

just make sure you have the right sensors loaded

for me it was Winbond 1 and Winbond 2

Dread try selecting every option possible with every possible diode.

From there it is very simple to know what is case and cpu temps.

I suggest every time MBM, coz for me it's really the best program for Temps, Voltages & Fans Rpm monitoring, you have only to go on the on page of MBM and check down/left into the list of Mobos supported the right sensors to set, like just suggested, nothing else ;)

Thanks for the help! Some times the object of desire is hidden right under our noses:eh?: .

You're welcome! ;)
What are the temps now?

[dreadlord79]

I'm not positive right now (at work again, no I don't sleep here) but if memory serves: #1) 14deg C. #2) 24deg C. #3) 34deg C.. I am not sure where these are located since the Mobo books by ECS suck, but #1) should be near the bottom, #2) is probably near the top of the board and #3) has got to be my CPU. I think this is a pretty good temp. using a Vantec FCE-62540D Socket A/370 Heatsink with the 38CFM Delta non-lapped! No ASII either! Do you think doing these things I just mentioned would help any?

[Arkaine23]

lapping your heatsink and applying ASII should lower your CPU temp a bit. Also, bear in mind that MBM temps are not really accurate.

I'd guess it;s 1) not connected 2) southbridge sensor (usually called the motherboard or system temp). 3) cpu socket sensor.
Unless you have an external probe plugged in it's unlikely you have more than two sensors. Southbridge sensors are reasonably useful numbers but cpu socket temps are way out mostly. Only useful as a "fire alarm" really.
