you shouldn't have deleted it, just go to Restart or Reset. Happened to me once, it always locked up my comp after I tried some settings, so I just double-clicked the program called Reset, and it worked perfectly after.

hope this helps

a program called reset where do i get this

[minoukat]

Oops, sorry, said it wrong ! Reset is part of CPUFSB, it's one of the icons/programs in the folder where you extract CPUFSB

[AMD900*]

well is there any way i can get it back?

[minoukat]

did you empty the trash after you deleted the folder ? if so, you'll have to redownload it, I think

EDIT : here's one link I found : http://members.tripod.de/podien/CPUFSB.ZIP

[minoukat]

CPUFSB is only a part of a program called CPUCooL, that monitors Voltage, temps, ..., also including what CPUFSB includes.

Here's the download link : http://download.cnet.com/downloads/0-10102-100-5710082.html?tag=st.dl.10001-103-1.lst-7-1.5710082

yes i did how do i delete it of my system (completely of my system) so i can download it again and install it

[minoukat]

did you reinstall the program after you deleted it ? or just ran the CPUFSB executable from the zip file ?

[AMD900*]

yes i did and it wouldnt work so i deleted the file from zip program

[minoukat]

did you try just runnging the program without installing it ? Maybe just execute the Reset program. I'm starting to get short of possibilities !

[AMD900*]

well i didnt know it had the reset program and i dont know i just deleted the program also i just downloaded CPUCool and i got the same massege it wont open it

[minoukat]

maybe by deleting every registry key that concerns this program, it'll reinstall and work correctly afterwards. go to Start, Run, type in Regedit, and look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SOFTWARE, and in the different folders for another folder called CPUFSB. then just delete this folder. That **might** work, I'm not sure, and could possibly mess up the registry. What OS do you have ? if it's Windows ME, or Windows XP, try doing a system restore to an earlier point, before all this happened

win 98se

k, I just reread the entire thread, and I have some questions : 1. did you install the program or just run it after being unzipped, without installing it first ?

2. what did you delete after you saw it didn't work anymore ? The .zip archive or the folder in what it was unzipped ?

ok i already deleted one file on my regestry and is till wont intall so i done i search and i found this HKEY_CURRENT_USER>software>system management bus>cpufsb now should i delete the system management bus file or just the cpufsb?

[AMD900*]

i intall it first and i and i deleted the folder first and then the archive

[minoukat]

I would say just delete the CPUFSB key, not the entire system management bus

ok, im trying to download cpucool form www.talknet.de/~podien/CPUCOOL.HTM
it 2.40 mb but it quits @ 1.5 OR 1.7MB WHTA IS THE PROBLEM

[minoukat]

try it with a download manager, so when it quits or stops, just restart it

[AMD900*]

where can i get that

[minoukat]

Download Getright from www.getright.com, install that and run it, and while it's running, start downloading CPUCooL. There should be a different-looking download window if it started in Getright
