I am still not clear if this is a definite BIOS issue or a driver issues or partly both. I do have access to our firmware engineer who develops the BIOS. If you think that this is a 100% BIOS issue I can ask BIOS guy to fix this. Also I appreciate if anybody can tell me what needs to be fixed exactly in the BIOS. It's a BIOS issue. The driver shouldn't have to enable HW monitoring, the BIOS should. Unless the HW monitoring pieces of the Super-IO chip in this machine are not used but that doesn't seem to be the case since you say everything works fine when you use the force_start parameter. Note that there are machines out there that have Super-IOs with HW monitoring capabilities which are not connected/unused and hence not enabled by the BIOS. Are there any options in the BIOS? Do you see temp/voltage data in the BIOS? ...juerg > Thanks > > Kushal Koolwal > > I do blog at http://blogs.koolwal.net/ > _________________________________________________________________ > Windows Live?
