The value might be different from what you expect because these embedded sensors have very poor accuracy in low temperature ranges. What the above value really means is that your CPU is properly cooled and you do not have to worry about overheating (unless the value gets close to 70°C under heavy load.) > It does not appear that Biostar provides Linux chipset drivers, although > your FAQ indicates this should be supported in this version of the > kernel.

I can't help you further without the complete output of a recent version of sensors-detect (for example http://dl.lm-sensors.org/lm-sensors/files/sensors-detect) on your system. -- Jean Delvare _______________________________________________ lm-sensors mailing list lm-sensors@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.lm-sensors.org/mailman/listinfo/lm-sensors
