The BIOS itself, during POST, makes very funny noises (instead of the customary two beeps) and then stops with a message stating that the system was shut down due to termal event. I have to acnowledge it by pressing F4. Then the boot proceeds normally. One other strange thing is some of the filesystems I have are found "clean". In the event of a catastrophic crash I would expect to find all the mounted filesystems dirty. What am I missing?
> My BIOS has a section "PC Health Status", that has in it a "shutdown > temperature" enable/disable. Do you have something like that? I see nothing to that effect. I only have a "monitoring" option that shows temperatures, voltages and fan speeds. If there is some control funcrtion must be hidden somewhere else. Next time I reboot I will have a closer look to all the options in order to see if I missed something. BTW: Murphy strikes again: this night the system survived with no problems :) > > wmtemp is a temperature monitor, it does not record. I wrote > the recording function myself. On, thanks. I will do likewise. Any idea about the fan-control problem? Thanks for Your time Mauro -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
