Another MBM5 ques.

[WarriorII]

Just put in MBM5 (newest ver. 5.2.0?) and it reads really high.
I had the previous version in B-4 and it was close.
I can reset the CPU1 sensor to read more accurate for my mobo. (ASUS -10C)
But the CPU2 for MB temp is WAAAAAAAAY OFF ! Over 25C off.
I readjust it, and it is still off by 4C. (high)
I have it maxT out.

Only thing I have changed is the OS. To XP.
So, I know my 38C CPU temp, & 28C MB temps are there,
I just can't get this thing configured right.

I have tried different readers for sensor pick up
(as slected on screen for sensor 2) and it defaults to none.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

MBM sometimes wont read a sensor correctly and needs the offset value adjusted. When I set mine I get the temp reading from the bios screen and then use the offset feature to +/- the temp in MBM to match the bios reading.

That's how I adjusted the Sensor 1 to read for the CPU.
But the Sensor 2 is all outta whack.
What version are you running?

 

[Maximouse]

The latest MBM.

Sensor 4 is the cpu diode reading
Sensor 2 is the temp reading from the On Die sensor in the cpu
(should be higher than the reading from 4.
Sensor 1 is the Northbridge temp.

My temps right now are:

S#4 (diode) 39c
S#2 (Ondie) 50c
S#1 (NB) 24c

You could have a bad sensor.

I don't normally suggest a different forum, but I have had tremendous success with responsesfrom the staff of Livewire(MBM5 creators), they helpede fix some bugs in the software for my motherboard, perhaps they can help you.

Cool, no pun intended.

Thanks for the help & clarification.

Where do you adjust the voltages in MBM to match the bios??

i see no such settings..and im using the latest one

Under the settings for alarm (for each sensor) scroll down until you see "Compensation for this sensor", then set the +/- Value

Still can't get it to match the MB sensor.
Seems there is / MBMB5 is set up now for SMP mobos. I have 2 sensor readings for CPU temp. I think Sensors 2 & 3.
#1 doesn't even come close to mobo temp. (28C)

There is no such setting in MBM...im running the 5.201 version

There is no such setting in MBM...im running the 5.201 version

Last Line in the pic...:"Compensation for this sensor" is the one that allows offset adjustments.

I am using 5.2.1.0 Beta, but the prior version I was using had this setting as well.

 

[equalizr]

like i said...there is nothing there to compensate for the "voltages" to match the bios readings. i knew about the temp one

Uhh, I think MBM reads from the BIOS voltages - so they shoudln't be different.
