thank you, thank you...so soo much!! wooho!
one question tho, but this has to do with reasonable voltage levels, and
termperatures, not lm_sensors/i2c...
in the past two years i have gone threw 2 amd cpu's...first i had a
boxed amd athlon 1.4ghz...using its amd-provided heatsink and fan. temps
measured fine afaik...and about a year later my pc started
freezing...repleaced the cpu and all was well again :) i replaced it
with a "bare" amd duron 1ghz cpu, (but re-used the hs/fan from the
1.4ghz cpu) as it was all i could afford at that time. that 1ghz cpu did
the same freezing thing a month ago... 7 months after i bought it. so i
found the recpit and exchaged for it another, as it was still under
warrenty. they didnt have anymore 1ghz cpu...so i got an amd athlon
thoroughbred 2000+ (1.667GHz!! :) thats what im using now. my stepfather
said it might be my power supply unit being somewhat faulty and possibly
causeing harm to the cpu (perhaps shocking it, or depriving it of
electricity??). but i would be somewhat surprised, as i have an Antec
powersupply--a well know, well respected case and power supply maker.
but i suppose every product has a few defectives sold.
this is why i badly wanted to get lm_sensors/i2c working...
now "sensors" shows me this:

if the min/max value it shows are what the voltage show be between... it
would seem my VCore and +3.3volt are a little wrong. both a little too
low. do you know if the difference is big enough to cause problems?
lastly, but also important, the temperatures. "+95?F" why the "?", is
that an estimate... does it need to be calibrated? im not too worried
about it as i hear cpus should be able to handle 110F (44C) alright--but
of couse its not good to stress-test them! :) but i have a copper
heatsink with that nice loud 7000RPM fan on it...so i think i will be ok
anyway, i know that except for the temp's "?", none of this has to do
with your program, but i figured you guys would be the people to ask.
sorry if im jsut continuing to bother you guys.
i would like to thank you guys, you have been very helpful...not to
mention quick to respond! i REALLY appriciate it!
thanks again,
farrell f.
