After testing with an older beta, today I installed the newest beta version
0.1.26.1 and am still experiencing the same incorrect spikes in either my
MB or CPU temperatures.  Open Hardware Monitor reports spikes of 83 when
both Everest and CPUID Hardware Monitor both reported my temps never
exceeded 34. The image I sent you is from the older beta but the new one is
reporting the same thing.  It has to be a bug because the spike is ALWAYS
83.  Not once has it reported the spike as 81 or 82 or 84 or 85... but
ALWAYS 83 no matter if just surfing the Internet or maxing my system with
Orthos.  The spike is always 83. 

Add a global option to switch °C to °F (or to °C and °F) displays.

The information of voltage and of speed of the ventilator is not shown. 
Is there any other way of showing them? (They are selected how visible in
the View Sensors)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
There are no fan speeds displayed.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
V. 0.1.27 Beta on Windows 7

Please provide any additional information below.
In previous versions the fans were displayed, but all at 0 rpm.

Please attach an OpenHardwareMonitor.Report.txt, which can be created with
"File / Save Report" in the Open Hardware Monitor folder.

Add AMD CPU and bus clock readings.

Right now only one CPU is supported. If a system has more than one CPU the
behaviour is undefined.

The mapping of operating system CPU affinity mask to hardware logical
processor id is assumed to be 1:1, which is wrong on certain (32-Bit
Windows) systems. This can lead to two core temperature sensors being read
twice, while two other are missing.

Implementing APIC based CPU topology enumeration should fix both issues.

For example on W83627EHF chips, some temperature sensors get added and
removed every other update of the display, which makes reading the display
difficult.

I have wrong defining CPU frequency and bus speed

Hello !

Would be better to have a forum ....

I came to OpenHardwareMonitor, because usually, nothing fits my
needs:Monitor and optionally shut down my server, if temperature is too high.

The main cirumstance for this is, that usually no user is logged on. All
monitors I am aware of, are just starting in the users logon session.

I personally started with WingRing0 samples to make it by myself ...
But:OpenHardwareMonitor could be split into a service [you use .Net, which
means, this is really a no complicated task!] which is responsible for
monitoring and a user program, which just displays the values to any
persons, which are logged in in any session .... Especially a problem on
servers, which many times runs unattended.

Just my personal note.

Best regards!

Subject cpu shows 100% usage on cores 3 and 4; Task Manage shows these
cores idle.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Not really sure
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I've been using HWSensor and it detects the 4 cores of my cpu individually,
this doesn't. It does detect load indivually, just not temp. I didn't think
much of it until I saw the individual core temp on the screenshot of the
software so I began to wonder if it was a bug of some sort since I can't
find a setting for it.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

0.1.23.2
Please provide any additional information below.

Phenom II x4 940 cpu on an Asus board. I'm not sure what info you requre so
just let me know..If this is normal for my system, ok.
Either way. This is very nice software and I will be switching from
HWmonitor as this provides more info and detects both my video cards which
is something HWmonitor was unable to do. So thanks!

I see info on my processor, my video card and my hard drives, but no info
about fans or mobo sensors.

I am using Windows Vista Home Premium SP2
My mobo is an ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO

I can't set the program to run as administrator from the exe, since the
option appears greyed-out. I used the command "run as administrator", but
no changes.

Hello !

Have you noticed, that the WingRing0 lib is no longer present? I registered
this just yesterday, looking for help to compile the driver by myself [If I
use open source, I always try to being able, to manage the project by
myself, because ONE DAY, I'll possibly depend completely on it ;-) ].

Best regards!

ADL_Overdrive5_CurrentActivity_Get can return the status ADL_OK even in
cases where only a part of the ADLPMActivity record is valid. If the ADL
reports a core voltage of 0.0 V, or a clock speed of 0 Mhz, then just
deactivate these sensors. 

When I run the monitor program, it is not showing no one sensor.
My board is G31M-ES2L (Gigabyte).

           Nikolay

OHM would be even more useful if it could display on the Logitech G15
keyboard's LCD, similar to SpeedFan.  Additionally, integration support
with LCDSirReal (http://www.linkdata.se/software/lcdsirreal) would be great
too.

i have a little bit changed.
And tested with P7P55, M3N78 and Everest 5.5.2100

You can use it in your code

I could neither identify the source of this error nor reproduce it. Maybe
trying to run the Open Hardware Monitor with "assembly bind failure
logging" enabled as described in the exception could give more hints about
what is going wrong.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I hope, that SMART and drives with their temperature are normally show!?


What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I am using 0.1.30.0 BETA on "Windows Server 2008 R2", en, x64


Please provide any additional information below.

Currently I am using Speedfan, having a similar problem. MAY be, the
problems appears, after I installed Intel Storage Manager and managing an
RAID5 array. The RAID5 contains three SATA drives, which are not shown by
Speedfan. My system drive is a Corsair SSD, which is displayed by Speedfan
including SMART data [but no temperature]. OpenHardwareMonitor does not
show any drives.

My report was generated in a RDP session, running a local admin account.

Sometimes the VCore displayed is incorrect. In a previous screenshot (Issue
#1) it was OK, now it's reading over 2V which is physically impossible.

The CPU VCore is wrong for this mainboard, it shows 0.86V when the correct
value is 1.26V. The EVGA X58 SLI Classified seems to use a voltage divider
with 4.7k and 10k resistors for the CPU VCore (and perhaps the DRAM as well).

http://hardforum.com/showpost.php?p=1035483713&postcount=58

It's working. Some of the voltage line are missing, and one of the temp
sensors (AUX) is disconnected but OHM shows it nonetheless.

I'm also attaching a screenshot of the voltage configuration screen from
SpeedFan, showing how the SuperIO is configured on the MSI K8 SLI Platinum.

New feature requested - "Run as a service".

Now, there is an option "Autorun". But this option is triggered when the
user login. I'd like setting "Run as a service" to run the program without
login of the user. Then you can connect from time to time to the computer
using RemoteAdmin and read sensors' values.

Thank you!

Implementation is similar to Winbond chips, but creating a new class might
be a good idea.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The CPU temperature is always 5 degree Celsius lower than other similar 
software shows. I am not sure which software shows the real temp but I am 
just making you aware of this fact so you may want to look into it.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Latest version on Windows 7

It is desirable to be able to run the program on multiple computers in
"service mode" and collect data from sensors at once from multiple
computers remotely.

Thank you!

Adding simple moving average to temperature readouts would increase
readability by smoothing out noise.

When laptop gos into hibernating, the monitoring software shuts down. Also 
it shuts down (somethimes only) when it goes into sleep mode. The 
monitoring software should stay open (in the tray bar) regardless the state 
the laptop is in (except when it is completely turned off).

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I am using the latest version of the software under Windows 7 OS

Please provide any additional information below.
This kind of behavior happens since the last upgrade (Beta0.1.28). I think 
the "run in windows startup" feature is provoking it. I love the feature 
but I think it needs a little tweak.

A useful option that would be welcome in OHM.

When OHM is left open for a long time, the graph becomes crowded. The only
way to fix this is to close OHM but that also mean losing the whole
backlog. What we need is a menu to select the amount of data to be plotted,
e.g. Show All/Show Last 30 min/Last 10 etc.

If OHM is left open and then the machine is hibernated, it will hang on the
saving settings window, and never goes on to the black screen w/progress
bar. Windows XP 32 bit.

Using the navigator I found the reported fan speed is often a bit off and
erratical. Using the percentage seems better and more intuitive to me.

No Information about sensors (fan and motherboard temp) of notebook 
Compaq6910p. Only show icon named "30BE" without a tree.

Information about proc and HDD are showed.

PS
I attach first lines of the report file.

I should be seeing the power voltages, and fan speed regulator output as
well as all temperature (ie CPUS both of them and N/S Bridges)..

All thermal and load data displayed is correct.  Hard Disk detection is
correct as the associated thermal values.

Only much data is missing such as the following:

Missing all fan speeds, All Power voltage, and 1 of the 2 cpu is missing
not even showing as a second core. The single visible CPU Load displayed is
accurate.

Windows Vista Ultimate w/ SP2
The system is a dual Opteron 246 with 4 Gig Reg ECC DDRAM

The fan divisors have to be adjusted in realtime to avoid reading 0x00 or
0xff from the fan tacho register. The fan tacho should be kept at a high
value for better resolution, but with a margin to 0xff. Maybe a good window
is [96, 192].

Most likely the problem is caused by moving the Update to a seperate timer
thread. All the GUI updates have to be done from the winform thread, or
strange things might happen.

Please add Power Profile change menu.
It will be useful for changing power consumption. I use profiles for limit
processor performance. 
I suggest add this option with processor sensors.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Unable to build solution under Visual Studio 2008. Missing resource 
reported.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
When shutting down I receive notification that OHM must be closed. 
Also suspending machine causes OHM to shutdown, when machine is started
icons appear in tray but browsing other them causes them to disappear.

Is there, or will be a way to translate open hardware monitor? I'd like to
contribute by translating it to portuguese and spanish.

It is good to have another option "Warning of high temperature or fan failure".

When the temperature rises above the threshold set by the user, a warning
is displayed on the screen / email / SMS / log
