The pins are used for a different functions. Do you have any reason to believe that your fans are actually connected to this chip? -- Jean Delvare ------------------- Jean, hi, Honestly speaking I have no other reference (e.g. Windows) than this installation to see what the chip is capable of reporting. I'm assuming that, besides FAN-speeds, it also monitors and reports voltage levels, etc... But I couldn't find any datasheet to support those thoughts. So probably that leaves me with a motherboard of which I cannot monitor anything... Or do you have any other suggestions to get readings of, let's say CPU core temperature, etc... Kind regards, Jan van Tiggelen
