Core Center Pro

Hmmmm I actually have a couple of questions on this. Currently according to Web Site this is latest core center pro for K8T Master 2 Far V1.01.03, 2003/12/03.
On a machine i have built for a customer his CPU2 temp is 70 on mine its 42.
His rpms on cpu 2 is less than 3k, I tried to set this higher but software keeps putting it auto mode and wont let me set it higher. My thought is there has to be a setting in registry, I unistalled it and reinstalled it. No luck.
In bios, there is a setting for the fan tolerance and says 1-5, is 5 higher tolerance meaning that only if cpu temp is at extreme that it runs fan higher?
Next question is 70 acceptable? what is the max temp i should like be concerend about?

I think 70 is bit high for continuous use.  The CPU protection will automatically shut down your sytem if temp reaches 90 but that's to avoid immediate, catastophic damage.
Mine runs a around 40C.  I don't see how the one you built is getting so hot unless the case a poor design or you have some mondo video card blowing heat onto your CPU.
The only time my temps where anywhere near that high is when I tried using an internal USB media card reader  .  Needless to stay, the reader stays unplugged until I'm ready to use it.

  • Core Center Pro Problems w/MSI-9620v1 (K8N Master2-FAR)

    -Running XP as shown in sig,
    ---My issue is Core Center running on two User accounts, causes instabilities or maybe just false readings, resulting in Alarm/Shut Down. Shutting down and then jumping to BIOS's H/W Monitor shows it's not even close to my alarm settings, let alone critical. With the system temporarily being at the tattoo shop while sending his MoBo out for repairs, the two User accounts must be accessed on a regular basis, so fast switching/switch users is the preferred method log logging on.
    ---Originally I had issues with Core Center showing in Taskbar on all accounts other than mine/Admin, though it was a running process. Added. When I thought it wasn't loading, I started it (clickity-click on icon) and it automatically would say CPUs were overheated.
    ---Is there a fix that can allow the Core Center to run on two profiles, or am I going to have to shut it down when switching to another profile and open it when the other profile logs in? That would be a bit of a hassle for the other user. He's computer illiterate & would be happier jumping on the computer, searching craig's list or whatever, and then getting off the computer without having to click this, click that and click that before he logs on/off.

    I do not know many people that use CoreCenter.
    I stopped using it myself in the beginning, as you can simply set the fans in the BIOS.
    And the over-temp-shutdown is done by the BIOS automaticly so no reason to set in CC either.
    -Thanks Bas,
    ---I can't adjust anything but alarms in CC anyway, so I just use it for the advanced warning. Maybe it was a conflict between BIOS & CC that caused it, never checked to see if the settings were the same between the two User Profiles, but again the 2nd User profile is gone, so it won't be a problem for me any longer.
    ---So to me, your response sums it up. Wanted to do this first thing, but wanted to test them first and see if the fuss about OEM coolers was justified. Time to upgrade the CPU coolers; Well, at least the one for CPU2, nearest PCI-E1 (which is always 4°C-8°C higher than CPU1). I've notice temps have gone up 9°C on all (system, CPU1 & CPU2) since I first built the machine, but just wrote that off in thought as "the new BeQuiet! PSU is single fan where the Ultra was dual". Though they're clean to the eye (system is cleaned of all dust, what little there is due to intake filter) and they still show a steady 5900RPM, the CP1 fan shows intermittent (false I would imagine) report of 11k every great once in a while (not in BIOS though).
    ---In the good name of forum etiquette, I will search for recent cooler alternative topics and jump in. If none found, I will add to an old, unlocked thread... and if still none found, I will start anew.
    ---Thanks again,

  • Dual Core Center working in Vista but not XP on a dual boot system?

    Hi All.
    My system specs are:

    I am running a dual boot system with Windows XP Pro SP2 on one partition and Windows Vista Ultimate on the other.  Both operating systems seem to be operating properly except for an odd situation with Dual Core Center.  In Windows XP Dual Core Center only indicates the Mainboard properties - No VGA, whereas on Windows Vista Ultimate Dual Core Center indicates both VGA & Motherboard properties.  I have installed MSI Nvidia drivers for the Graphics card & also tried straight Nvidia drivers for the card but it has made no difference VGA will not show up in XP.  Yet on installing Dual Core Center on the Vista partition VGA showed up immediately.  Can anyone help.
    If anyone can come up with an answer to this it would be a real help.
    Many Thanks in advance.

    have you try to update/install the dual core driver from amd?

    is that ok with you Sir?
    It's your pc, not mine. So, yes, it is alright with me. I don't bother when people mess up things for themselves. We're always here to help things get on the road again... and we're happy to do it. 
    Just try to see what I'm telling you: if you do not experience serious trouble, then leave things alone. Also, always try to decide if a program is really necessary or that you can do without it. For example, if you use corecenter mainly as a monitoring tool, I'd advice you to uninstall it and not to install any monitoring tool at all. You can set Cool & Quiet in BIOS and make it work by installing the AMD CPU driver (you already did, I suppose) and set power settings to Minimal power in Control Panel. This way, you system will not overheat and if it does, it will shut down automatically. Corecenter doesn't contribute to these functions in any way.

  • K8t neo fis2r - core center not functional after installing sound card

    Hi.  I had been using Core Center with Dynamic Overclocking enabled and all was well.  When idle, my amd64 3000+ (2.0ghz), was running at 800mhz.  Under load it would go up to 2100mhz.  But yesterday, I installed an Auzentech x-plosion sound card and after i installed the driver, the dynamic overclocking stopped working, my cpu is running at max all the time.  (The variable fan speed function still works). 
    I checked the IRQ and there is no conflict, I uninstalled the amd64 driver and core center and reinstalled.  Still does not work.  I uninstalled the auzentech driver, rebooted, and cancelled new hardware wizard.  Then the variable cpu frequency feature worked.  Once I install the driver for the auzentech, dynamic oc stops working.  I was thinking to try another pci slot but it appears to be a software issue rather than a hardware issue.  The new version of Core Center does not work with my board even though msi says it's compatible so I'm still using the one that always worked.  The amd driver is the latest and also always worked.
    Has anyone else had a similar problem, perhaps using the auzentech sound card with this board and Core Center?  Or does anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Hey guys, I just went to AMDs site to get the dashboard utility mentioned and in the readme, it stated that in XP, the power option needs to be set to portable/laptop.  But in the past, I read that it needed to be set to "always on" and that it is, in fact, what I had it set to before when cool n quiet was working.  Now I change it to "portable/laptop" and it works and set to "always on" doesn't work anymore.  So now Core Center reports I'm at 33c @800mhz at no load.   I don't get it???  I'll have to try an alternate utility just to verify that is indeed working.
    btw, QV, I checked system properties, (right-click my computer > properties, or "system" in control panel) and on the "general" tab, it indicates an AMD64 3000+, 2.0GHz.  But I'm pretty certain the clock frequency is dropping now as reported by core center because of the decrease in the cpu temp at idle.  Am I looking in the right place in XP?  I have XP pro, SP2
    Again, thanks for the input and Happy New Year  

  • Core Center causes crash with XP SP2

    I've recently configured a non-admin account on my P4 XP Pro computer, and encountered a problem that is well described back in October of 2004, where core center causes the computer to crash.  See this link for details . . .
    https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=65349.0
    Given these problems, and nothing in that thread suggesting a resolution, I'm thinking of maybe just turning off Core center with Hijack This.  Do I really need Core Center or something like it to safely operate?  I'm not overclocking, and I have an extra fan in my case.
    Terry Quinn

    No you absolutely do not need CoreCenter at all.
    CC is only meant for layman o/c'ing and this software does too many funny stances than what we could handle so try to get rid of it asap.

  • P6N SLI V2 problem with "dual core center"

    I have the P6N SLI  V2 with E4400 and 7600gt running XP pro sp 2.
    after installing and running MSI's "dual core center" (including .Net framework) I only have the "VGA" option enabled, the "MB" option is disabled as well as the D.O.T option. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling as well as downloading the latest version, but I have the same problem. I get no MB options at all (like no cpu temp, fan speed, core speed etc.). I didn't make any changes to the BIOS yet (other than changing the boot sequence), and ideas?

  • MSI Core Center problem!!!

    I´ve just updated the MSI Core Center to ver 1.6.2.0 because 1.6.1.0 kept increasing and decreasing CPU fan speed all the time, got a bit annoying.
    After the install and restart of PC, when Core Center started, the PC automaticly restarted. Only way I can use my PC now is by dissabling Core Center, or going to older ver. but thats not the best solution.
    I have passiv coling on NB, but this havent caused problems before, and keeps a normal temp.
    MSI, i think u should look tthe Core Center program over, somethings wrong.
    Pardon my english (I´m from Sweden).

    hi khinax,
    Please give your signature (computer spec).
    Why you adjust the fan speed doesn't it run automatically with 3 pin?
    Use CC with not much problem.
    I use it for DOT with ver.1.6.1.0 which quit better than 1.6.2.0, this is the only software that can communicate with the COreCell.
    Work fine right now.

  • Dual Core Center hates me

    My MSI P965 Platinum woes continue   
    Firstly, my DVD burner wouldn't work properly until I flashed the BIOS. How can you ship a motherboard where something a simple as the IDE channel doesn't work properly. Looking at the number of threads here where the JMicron chip was the issue I'm surprised it hasn't been banned yet.
    Secondly, I finally got my HHD speeds back to normal after installing my system with my SATA ports set to RAID and the RAID drivers (even though I'm not using RAID). Today though I am experiencing random system freezing and even a reboot.
    Now my latest headache is with the Dual Core Center that just won't work. And I do have the .NET 3 Framework installed. It installs fine, but when I try run it crashes and says DCC has encountered an error and needs to shutdown.

    My question would be why are you using Dual Core Centre at all?
          * it is well know that it is a poor utility
          * Overclocking better off done in the bios.
          * Use Coretemp or SIV 3.14 for monitoring temps, and CPU-Z.

  • Dual Core Center - not worth bothering with?

    Hi,
    New to this forum so please bear with me!
    Just installed a K9N Neo V3 and upgraded to latest BIOS.
    Have installed latest version of Dual Core Center software and when I select the the Silent option withing a few seconds the window pops up and it starts playing a Siren sound like something is wrong. It reports the CPU FAN RPM as quite low - but then I have a Artic Cooling Freezer Pro 64 CPU cooler which controls the speed based on temp.
    I cant find any instructions on how to use / configure Dual Core Center. How do you adjust warning levels?
    Can you adjust the System Fan Speeds based on Temperature?
    I tried uninstalling Dual Core Center and installing the latest version of SpeedFan 4.33 but that wont show any FANs at all on the main screen or config screen.
    Are there any other software worth trying?
    Thanks In Advance

    The two SYS FANS that I have installed.
    Anyways I seem to have solved the problem - the two fans came with Molex adaptors etc so I just swapped the 12v & 5v connectors round and connected them to the PSU rather than the MB connectors.
    Now the PC is ultra queit and still has two fans sucking warm air out - albeit only running at around 900RPM
      OK... I'D Like to Understand, If those fans came with Molex Adaptors, How did you Connect them to the Mainboard in first Place?
    Now this is How I modded 2 X 12mm FANS that were Molex and came along with my Case.
    Chopped off a 3 Pin cable from Old Cpu Cooler That was not being used, Insert the 3 Pin Cable into one of the Fans Molex Adapter as an extension. Because the molex connectors on these fans are Usable via Male/Female, simply connect The 2nd Fan to the 1st one and hooked it up to My Fan Controller, now I have the Ability to control 2 fans on 1 Knob, and I Do Wick them both up to keep My System cool under Load. The Fan Controller is the reason I needed them on a 3 Pin, could easily use both fans on One 5V ZM-MC1 connector just the same.

  • Fan RPM's read 0 in BIOS no matter where I plug the CPU fan, but it registers in Core Center???

    Hey,
    I used to have BIOS Rev 1.0, updated to 1.2 thinking it would fix the problem about the Fan RPM's not registering, meaning they show 0 in the BIOS, but it didn't fix it, but it registers normally in Core Center in Windows XP Pro.
    What the heck is the problem?? are any other poeple getting this problem?, everything is correctly connected and operates correctly.
    Specs are in my signature.
    Thank you,

    I have the same problem.  Don't worry too much about it.  Most BIOS' won't recognize a CPU fan below a certain threshold, and the Thermaltake Silent Boost's stock fan probably fits into that category.

  • Which memory modules to use for upgrade 8 core Mac Pro

    I am planning to upgrade the memory in my new 8 core Mac Pro, I use it for graphics and video editing (FCS2), I am wondering what would be the advantages and differences between getting the 8GB upgrade in 2-pair of 4GB module or 4-pair of 2GB module, I know the price for the first choice is almost double the second.

    OK, so according to the http://www.barefeats.com/harper3.html Memory Tests, all slots filled means the fastest speed. So here's my question:
    I'm about to buy a 2,8GHz MacPro with 2GB RAM, and I want to upgrade to 8GB. I was considering buy an 8GB Kit from Crucial (629.99$), and either leave the original 2GB and add the 8GB to the free slots, or just take the original out and leave only the 8GB modules. And this would be my question before reading the Memory Tests article.
    So I went back to Crucial's online store and did some math, to see how much it would cost me to fill the remainder slots (6, counting off the 2 used by the original RAM) with 1GB modules, instead of my previous idea of 8GB (2x4GB). So, a 2GB Kit (2x1GB) cost 127.99$, multiplied by 3, which is what I would need to achieve a total of 6GB, to add to the original 2GB, will cost 383.97$.
    That's 246$ less than the 8GB Kit! And according to the Memory Tests, even faster.
    Isn't this too good to be true? What's your word?
    Thanks a lot.

  • Need help improving XP SP3 performance on 4-core Mac Pro 2009

    I'm running Windows XP SP3 under Boot Camp 3 (Mac OS X v. 10.6.2). Currently, XP is on a second partitioned HD, but it was previously running on a drive all its own with the same problems which are:
    When I boot into Windows the sound stutters quite a bit. I updated the Realtek drivers and used the Apple USB device (24" LED speakers) but nothing completely got rid of the static/stuttering.
    The real problem comes when running Left 4 Dead. Whenever I get to a new part of any level (where zombies are) the graphics freeze for up to a few seconds and the sound gets glitchy, repeating broken staticky snippets. I don't have other games installed but I get similar performance when watching a YouTube video in Firefox.
    Is this normal for Windows on a Mac Pro or do other Mac Pro Boot Campers run Windows smoothly? I have seen YouTube videos of Windows running smoothly on MacBook Pros and iMacs. Just wondering if I'm doing something wrong.
    Finally, I'm running two graphics cards, an ATI 4870 and an NVIDIA GT120. I've run with both on, one off, the other off, the NVIDIA removed, the NVIDIA installed. No matter what I do, the video glitchiness is always pretty bad. (The audio is also bad.)
    Thanks in advance for any info or pointers.

    I have had success running boot camp on an 8-core Mac Pro from 2009. I have an ATI 4870.
    I initially used Windows 7 Beta (32bit) and then RC (64bit) and finally the shipping version (64 bit Professional).
    32-Bit crippled Crysis performance for me (only the demo). I was able to run the game with most settings all the way up (excluding Anti-aliasing), at 1920x1080 and it ran fine for about one minute before hitting the hard-drive for about 10 seconds. This thrashing occurred repeatedly and I have up - that problem was resolved when I moved to 64bit Windows.
    Other games I have played with no trouble are The Orange Box & Borderlands, each with maxed resolution and settings.
    Optical audio and the front headphones work fine for me - though the 4 conductor cord does not recognize the microphone (from an iPhone headset) in Windows, which gets me down as it would be nice to audio-chat in some games.
    Try these thing in this order if you can, and have not already:
    Patch the game (though if this is happening in Firefox as well, it seems like an OS problem)
    Update directX (I really have no clue here, I assume Windows does this automatically?)
    Try demos of other games
    Upgrade the OS to 64bit (Especially if you have over 3GB of ram
    Go from XP to 7 (I have had no trouble with Windows 7 on my machine)
    Try a DVI monitor (I am using a 21" Westinghouse, have never connected an Apple display)
    Good luck!
