illogic-al Posted October 22, 2003 Report Share Posted October 22, 2003 wow. i got a massive temp drop (for me) from 61C to 54C on my overclocked 2000+ (to 2100+). you know what this means. time to go 2200 You know the drop only happen when the cpu is idle don't you? Go to 2200 and play a bit of quake, and watch the smoke appears from your cpu but go ahead.. I always like a little bit of destruction (especially if the thing being destroyed is not mine) Anyway, I did try that utitlity and watched my temp drop from high 30s -low 40s to around 33C. Quite a drop for an overclocked 1700+ :) :( did not know that. grr. it's 2100 fer me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkrekula Posted October 26, 2003 Report Share Posted October 26, 2003 kkrekula, There seems to be a new test kernel that could solve the problem with NForce 2 MBs. I found it when reading the mandrake-expert mailing list archives http://archives.mandrakelinux.com/expert/2...10/msg00892.php Let me know whether it solves your athcool problem Using the latest official kernel (2.4.22-18mdk) I tried to: - enable ACPI in the boot options - enable the ACPI service But I still get the same result. As soon as I start athcool 0.3.1 ("athcool on"), my computer freezes (I have to perform a hard reset). /Kenneth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonMage Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Have you tried it with ACPI=off? That's how I put the option for my Mdk 9.1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted October 27, 2003 Report Share Posted October 27, 2003 Bummer......I was hoping to get a little cooler, but everything's already enabled on my Abit KD7, VIA KT400, Athlon XP 1900+. Currently running at 34c on ML9.2/kernel-2.4.22-6mdk. ML/ACPI with this mb still doesn't work....never has. :roll: On ML9.2/kernel-2.4.22 try acpi=ht http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/ker...310.0/0521.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
