I say "unlikely" because sensors should be activated if they were used. But we can still investigate this. Please provide the output of: isadump 0x2e 0x2f 0x08 The other possibility is that the ICH9 internal sensors are used, but we do not support them yet. Well we do not support the PC8374L sensors either... The DP35DP technical documentation suggests that the ICH9 is used for the fan speed control and monitoring. It's not so clear about temperature and voltage sensors, however it claims automatic fan speed control, which usually means that the fan and temperature sensors are in the same chip. So my guess is that the only thing that may actually be monitored by the PC8374L on your board are the voltages. -- Jean Delvare
