Alternatives? Was: i2c-i801 on Intel Server Board se7525gp2?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




I have done some research on my motherboard. The E7525 chipset, used in a 
number of Dell's (though I bought mine as bareboard) will not show any 
usable sensors to LM_Sensors. Most posts redirect the owners of systems 
with these chipsets to Dell's OpenManage.

I bet I won't be able to use that particular solution as I do not have a 
Dell, but what other alternatives might start looking for to get CPU 
Temp/Fan Speed from my motherboard?

Thanks in advance for any leads,

Nick
