See also FAQ 4.27 here: http://www2.lm-sensors.nu/~lm78/cvs/lm_sensors2/doc/lm_sensors-FAQ.html#Section%204.27 > So aside from getting "sensors" to work, I have another question, I belive > temp1=CPU temp, temp2=MB temp (from looking at the BIOS), there are 2 other > temps detected apparently, temp3=125, and temp4=25 (Celcius) - is one a temp > for my nvidia graphics card, or the HDD? I'd just like to label them > properly :) It may be that both temp1 AND temp4 are CPU. This is not uncommon for ASB100 with an Athlon. But definitely temp3 is bogus and *none* of these are graphics or HD temps. BTW if you want HD temps look here: http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/ Regards, -- Mark M.
