Default -12V reading in BIOS - 11-18-2003 , 09:46 PM






I am getting a a reading on the -12V of -1.97V in my BIOS on a K7S5A
Pro with an Athlon XP 2100 overclocked to 1.9G. I have had a few times
that as I exit out of a game, the system crashes and goes to some sort
of wierd BIOS / Network load screen. After I hit the reset button,
everything comes back up fine.

My CPU is reading 44C, and the other two readings I am getting in
SpeedFan are 37C and 34C. SpeedFan shows my -12V reading at 0.06V.

I'm cornfused.. What does all this mean?

Speedfan 4.09 also gives me a strange reading for -12v on my k7s5a (reads
2.94v) mbm5 says it is -13.87v. For -5v speedfan reads -5.81v and mbm reads
0.0v (which is what my bios says)

From what little I understand, I think the -v rails are some sort of legacy
relating to ISA cards and don't really matter much on newer kit - but if
anyone knows for sure...

The temperatures are for the cpu and also for the motherboard/case what the
lowest third one is I am not sure - nothing or the psu.
