Bios temp is jumping again, and again and again

Temps on the rise again. Like i said before, just out of the blue , temps on everyother reboot will rise to 40C. Usually when C&Q kick in im about 26C average, now the lowest is 35C. This will never be solved. I liked it when i was getting 22C average for a month straight. I just want a steady average, thats all im asking, not 22C one day then 35C the other. Even with same bios.

I think we need some sort of FAQ on this subject since so many people seem to be concerned about it.
The temperature readings from these boards have never been, and probably never will be accurate. Learn to live with it.
Temperatures after a warm restart are often 5-10 degrees different from a cold boot. Something to do with the sensors being warm and not getting calibrated properly.
Temperatures read from different monitoring software tools are usually different.
Temperature readings from different BIOSs are often different.
If you have no heat-related stability issues, there's no problem.

Different readings between RivaTuner CPU Temp monitor and Bios Temp monitor

I just installed the RivaTuner temp plugin and it is reporting a core temp of 50C, CPU0 and CPU1 at 65C-66C. If I restart the PC and go to the BIOS the temp is being reported as 43C with a system temp of 42C. At most I would guess that 30 secs have elapsed since I viewed the temp in RivaTuner before checking the BIOS. Is this normal? Why the difference? Are my temps too high?

I will try to monitor the temperature with the chassis open tonight. I feel like there is a lot of blockage in there, but I don't know exactly how to tackle it. The PSU alone has a ton of wires in there and they are criss-crossing everywhere. I tried to zip tie them together as neatly as possible, but there is just a lot of crap in the middle of the case. I also have 3 HDD so that pretty much blocks the entire front fan. I could try using the top and bottom most mounting slots so that there is some air passage between 2 HDDs. The graphics card is also mounted in the top most PCIe slot. I could move that to the bottom one which should provide a better air channel. Other than that there isn't really much more that I can see doing. The case is a Tsunami Dream with the solid side. I could try modifying the side panel so that I can install another case fan. It currently has 2x 120mm fans, one rear and one front. I don't know what the CFMs are on them so I don't know if it is worth swapping them out for more powerful ones. Thanks for your help. I will run some more tests tonight. I did adjust the ratio in the bios so that I could run the RAM at 800mhz and I upped the RAM voltage to the 2.1v that Corsair recommended for it. Could those be affecting the temperature that much? Should I try restoring the RAM settings to factory defaults before trying again? Other than that I have done not other BIOS mods other than what was necessary for RAID.

K8N Neo2 Chipset cooling and 1.8 BIOS/temps issue

Hi, Not really a problem thread, more some resolutions I want to share (didn't have much luck finding these answers so thought this might help someone...)
First - I've replaced my chipset cooler with the Vantec CCB-A1C (Copper). I think mine is a fairly late revision board (though I forgot to record/photograph the chip while it was bare ) but the stock HS had the usual rubbish tiny spot of gunk slightly off centre. Gave it a nice (thin but even) layer of AS5 before fitting the Vantec and quite happy with the results: The Vantec is actually considerably louder than the stock fan but by using Speedfan to throttle it back to 50% it becomes almost silent and the chipset temp hardly rises above 26C now (32C idle rising to 40+ under load previously).
And on the temps issue - I flashed the official 1.8 BIOS a little while ago and was disturbed to see my CPU temp go from high 30s to around 19C! There was no way that could have been correct (at least 10 degrees lower than ambient? I'm running an XP-90 but it's not magic!).
So I've been looking for news on these 1.9 bioses and popped in here http://www.lejabeach.com/MSIK8N/k8nneo2.html and found the 1.8F bios. Have flashed and now my CPU is reporting 26C which is at least a bit more like it! My system temp is stable at ~38C, but I have no idea of the location of that sensor so there could be other factors keeping that one high.
One question - does anyone have a definitive list of settings/temp offsets etc for Speedfan? And maybe some diagrams showing sensor locations? /hopeful
Apologies if any of this is old news of course!
My Specs:
Antec TrueBlue 480W
A64 3500+ Winchester w/XP-90
K8N Neo2 Platinum
1GB Corsair TwinX-XL
Club3d 6800GT w/Arctic NV5 rev2
Twin Maxtor 160GB SATA Raid 1
Creative Audigy 2

are you looking at your bios or are you using something like motherboard monitor?
oh yeah.. btw.. the case temp thermometer is top left... i discovered this with a 120mm fan pushing air over places on the motherboard

OSX update 10.10.2 causes mouse to jump around and text to be highlighted randomly in Dreamweaver CC 2014

OSX update 10.10.2 causes mouse to jump around and text to be highlighted randomly in Dreamweaver CC. When trying to click on a specific line of code in a js file the cursor ends up in a different place in the script and several lines of code highlighted. Clicking again jumps the mouse to a different position and even more lines of code highlighted and some characters rearranged, breaking the lines of code. Very frustrating.

Preran,
I am having the same issue. I have a MBP connected to 2 x Dell 27" monitors over Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cables. Once I updated to OS X 10.10.2 this cursor highlight/jumping around issue only occurs on the connected monitors. If I move the program to the main laptop display the issue goes away. It does not require me to restart the program or the machine to make it work correctly. One way I am able to identify the issue is if I go to the line numbers in code like I wanted to select multiple lines - in the one that works correctly, the cursor turns into a white version where the tip of the cursor points to the right. When it is wrong, the cursor stays black and will only have the tip point to the left. Its just another way I identified if it was working cause I tried uninstalling DW and reinstalling - didn't work. Reset preferences as you discussed - no go. And I used other editors like IntelliJ and Adobe Edge Code - all of which work fine and don't display this issue.
I tried the preferences reset you suggest and it doesn't work. I have another machine with OS X 10.10.1 on it and this issue is not there on any monitor. Any help with this ASAP as it pretty much stops you from being able to do any editing especially with longer pages as it consistently wants to page up when you select anything and if you then click again in another area it tries to move the highlighted code to that new spot.
Update: I have a USB Microsoft Arch touch mouse connected (always worked just fine). When I go to place my cursor at some point in the code it causes the highlight flicker. If I switch over and use the built in trackpad, then I can place the cursor without the highlight issue. When trying to select multiple lines or sections of code, that still see's the highlight, page up and move of code issues regardless of input type.

FLV exported from PPro jumps up and down...

Hello... I'm exporting an FLV from Premiere Pro CS4 (Mac). When playing back on both Adobe Media Player and when posted on my website it jumps up and down periodically - the whole video pops upward several inches, then back down again, then up again...etc. Has anyone had this before? Ideas? Have played with export settings to no avail. Any help or suggestions most appreciated. Tx.

Thank you for all your replies. In examining my projects details more closely to post here (see below) I think I've had an "Aha" moment. It seems the jumping happens on the clips that the GenArts effects are applied to. (The video isn't up on the website as I didn't want to post it as long as this issue pertained. Will let you know if I get around to putting it up for entertainment...er...educational value...but right now would rather spend time sorting the problem out.;)
I think if I exported this Sequence and made another project with that clip as a whole unit THEN exported an FLV it would probably solve the jumping - IF it is indeed being caused by the effects. Although it always irks to have to add a bunch of steps....
Now - as CS4 doesn't export AVI from a MAC :-( (...does anyone know if CS5 does? It is a preferred format and I can't believe CS4 took it away...) what would be the best format to export as, keeping in mind I don't want to lose any quality... .mov? .mp4?
Export Settings
Format: FLV/FV4
Preset: FLV - Same as Source Flash 8 and Higher
Codec On2 VP6 (tried Sorenson Park…same prob. and lousy resolution…)
Frame Rate: Same as Source
Bitrate Encoding: VBR (tried CBR…same prob.)Encoding Passes: One (tried 2…same problem)
Bitrate: 1,500
Undershoot 90% target
Source footage is mostly .avi with an .mp4 for the logo at the end.
Audio is .wav
**Effects: Some brief Gen Arts Posterize, Edge Rays, Glint, Glare, Lens Flare. All applied individually, not layered on top of each other.**
(I will check with GenArts on the apparent affect of their effects.)
Thanks again for your input.

Compressor frame count jumping back and forth

Hi guys,
I've never noticed this before, until last night when compressing a 25-minute film in Compressor at 'DVD-90 minutes, high-quality'. What in the past on this film might take an hour or so, last night took about 14 hours (i.e. all evening and through the night).
Compressor was advancing through the frame count, but then would return to an earlier frame, then jump forward through the frames again, then jump back to 10 or so frames earlier, advance forward, go back, etc. It took ages for it to get through a dozen frames or so.
It seems to me in the past when I observed Compressor, it works its way consecutively through frames, advancing forward one frame at a time.
I guess Compressor was reinterpreting data from an earlier frame, but is this normal? My film only has one of two video layers, up to 8 audio layers, some imported Motion QT files, and a very large PICT image file (scrolling end credits).
When examing the frame count where Compressor seemed to get bogged down, it appears it was towards the end of the 25-min. film (around the 42,000 mark). It seemed to be stuck there, jumping back and forth all night. Must have been when it was trying to digest the PICT end credits... Eventually it did complete the task and the export was OK.
If Compressor is having problems with the PICT (?), perhaps I'll test this out by putting my end credits on a seperate FCP sequence, export them as a QT file, then re-import that back into my film and see if Compressor is happier...
Any thoughts?

Ongoing changes? What do you mean exactly? Anytime you add filters to a clip and render you are slightly lowering the quality...slightly. But exporting, expecially via Compressor, will add even more. How many changes are you making?

Adobe Flash 16 and 17 cause safari & Firefox browsers to jump up and down the page

Running MAC Pro 2010 10.10.2 Yosemite - Version 15 of adobe Flash was working fine. When version 16 came out the problems started with web pages jumping up and down and not being able to type/ edit things as web page jumps up or down away??? I Used the adobe Uninstaller , restarted the MAC, looked for the files in the library adobe said to look for ( non were there) and tried to install Adobe ver 15 of flash
And it starts to install, then the install window turns BLACK then the error message says install failed?? Try again? I have tried this a few times and always the same message.
Any idea how to install this older version 15??

It's not really the politics -- we're all pretty friendly on an engineering level (the business stuff is competitive, but that's always the case), but in how serious the security landscape is. There are armies of people reverse-engineering and weaponizing bugs in all popular products (often times way more people than work on the products themselves), and the time it takes to reverse-engineer the patches in a current version to weaponize and use against older versions is really short now. If you're not staying updated, you're a sitting duck.
If you look at this from an immunology perspective, what we don't want is an epidemic, so just like we do with childhood diseases, we want to maintain herd immunity. If 95% of the population is patched, it's difficult to deploy malware that spreads like wildfire. If you have a population that never updates (it used to take about 6 months for the majority Flash users to pick up the latest version, now it's closer to 48 hours with background update), even attacks that you've already fixed remain viable for months. If attacks have a short shelf-life, this pushes up the cost of developing the attack to where it's out of reach for most bad actors.
The Extended Support Release I linked to above *is* an older version of Flash, but it has all the latest security updates. It also won't be blocked by Safari. If the problem goes away, it's something that we broke in a new feature. If it doesn't, it's fallout from a security change, and I'd like to get more info on how to reproduce it, so we can try and fix it for the next patch update.

My m ac os x 3 keeps jumping spaces and highlights all by itself?

my m ac os x 3 keeps jumping spaces and highlights all by itself. sensitive to touch have to keep my hands not resting on computer and then its works??
any feedback appreciated.

Wow, could be most anything at this point.
One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for problem in Safe Mode...
PS. Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive
Reboot, test again.
If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it could be some hardware problem like Video card, (Quartz is turned off in Safe Mode), or Airport in 10.4 & below, or 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

Firefox jumps back and forth between time?

I have the most up-to-date version of Firefox (11.0 if I recall correctly) and Mac OS X 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) updated on my . I have just recently been having an issue where firefox seems to jump back and forth through time. The time difference is at most a minute or two, but it gets very frustrating.
For example, while I am writing this question, Firefox will jump back to a point where only half of the first paragraph is written, jump back to the 'present', jump back a bit, and then return to the 'present'. This happens with scrolling through websites as well.
I updated yesterday because I bought Diablo III and wanted to make sure everything was current to let it install smoothly (which it didn't... >.<). I noticed upon the restart that my background will switch to a blue background from my picture. When I try to change the background back, it will revert to the blue background after 5 seconds or so. Perhpas this is related to the Firefox issue?

Same specs here, but not seeing the issue you are describing, I suspect yours is a isolated issue.

Well lets eliminate Firefox and the add-ons/plug-ins as a possibility first.
1: User Firefox to uninstall all add-ons, then uninstall FF.
2: Use Safari to check the status of your Flash and other plug-ins using this site
https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/plugincheck/
3: Install FF again, then install your add-ons over time, one at a time, to try to determine when the problem occurs.

Sounds like another issue, but localized to that particular account.
Create another user in System Preference and see if it continues there as well.
You can delete your
com.apple.systempreferences.plist
file in your User/Library/Preferences folder and reboot, the file will be recreated minus your preferences which you reset.
Also download and run all of the free OnyX's mainatainance and cleaning aspects and reboot at the end (must), your machine will get a enema of sorts that might clear up the glitch.

Jumper SW1 and SW2, where are they?

I have a 2100+, and my KT4 Ultra is only recognizing it as a 1500+. I know it is because the FSB is set to 100, but when I try to change it to 133, my computer dies hard, and I have to clear the CMOS and start over. But printed on the MB is a table that says I have to set Jumper SW1 and SW2 to 1-2 in order to change the FSB successfully. But I couyld not find any jumpers anywhere on the board that weren't audio or the clearing CMOS one. Where are they? Is there some other solution to my problem?
Help!!! I have been looking for a relavent answer to this question for the last two weeks. (and yes, my power supply is fine...)

I am experiencing the same problem. I have an Athlon XP 2600+ barton (333mhz), and every time I try to clock the CPU at the factory speed, it will shut down.
I also noticed the FSB jumpers on the motherboard, and did some experimenting with the jumper settings on 1-2 and 2-3 for a 166MHZ fsb. After I set this and change the fsb in the bios to 166mhz and a multiplier of 10-15 it reports clocks speeds from 850mhz-933mhz?!
My question is for the KT4 ultra does the fsb have to be set through jumpers and bios, or just bios?

R835-P56X: Bios Options - Intel (R) AT and AT Suspend?

I was poking around in the BIOS for my R835-P56X and found a couple options that I haven't seen before:
Intel (R) AT
Intel (R) AT Suspend
I can't find any discussion of these options in the User's Guide (which doesn't cover the BIOS except for what can be changed with the HWSetup utility).
Does anyone know what they do?

The question would be if it translates into real gains in real world applications. You should test some 3D game or something to see if the performance is really great or just the same as usual. glxgears is quite a useless benchmark by itself (though it's good news that you get 3000 fps anyway).

Satellite A300 screen keeps jumping up and down

Hi,
What is on my screen keeps jumping up and down, any thoughts, is this a problem with video card in Satellite A300?

I have tried to install the display driver from the European website. During uninstallation I got a messgae to say failures occurred during uninstallation, and then during installation I got the message of Install package failure!
I have my external monitor now connected to laptop, but in personalising display settings, I cannot get my computer to recognise that I have two monitors now, as both keep coming up with number 1 (Multiple Monitors) on ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650, and they both have that degraded view, a bit like in safe mode.
So in checking of device manager under display adapters I have:
ATI Mobility Radeon HD3650
and under Sound, video and game controllers I have:
High Definition Audio Device
Realtek High Definition Audio
In this whole process I deleted a file that was previously here called
ATI HMD...
should I resinstall this?
So I'm not sure if the new display driver has been installed? help.

I tried to download images from a jump drive and now the jump drive seems blank. How can I recover the images? Is there a software program out there to do this reliably?

I took photographs with my Lumix camera (JPG) and put the sd chip into a jump drive and put them into my usb port to load. The images never loaded and now the sd chip has no images when I put it back into the camera. What can I do to restore the images? Is there Mac compatible software out ther to restore them? I am running a Macbook Pro OS X v 10.7.5. Thanks for your help.

I'm not sure I can help you with this situation. Odds are you probably can't recover the images if they aren't hidden in the card, but this just seems to be a fluke. I've had flash drives that be plugged in only to find out that was their iminant death.

Is it better to use just one project or to jump back and forth?

Greetings,
I am using Captivate 4. And I am wondering if it is better to use just one project or to jump back and forth?
I have one main project and rather than make one big project, I wondered about jumping off to small projects and returning to the main one.
I was trying to figure out the suggestion of jumping back to slide 10 and jump off to another project and then back to slide 20.
Do the projects have to be published to see this work?
I am just learning about Captivate so I am unsure of the best practices.
Thanks.

It's not that easy in Captivate projects to jump to a particular slide midway through another project. Captivate is set up by default to just launch each project from the first slide.
There have been workarounds published on this forum that allowed jumping into the middle of another project, but they can require some complex coding in either JavaScript or ActionScript.
