    I don't know why, but sometimes my computer give me a beeeeeeep!!and Hmonitor display a temperature of 253°Celcius!!! for 1 second or something ,

    Usualy my HDD temperature is betwen 29 and 37°Celcius (depending mostly on the temparature in my room)

    Is that normal ? or do I have a problem of voltages or something?

    I'm thinking about the voltages, because I always have those two indications displayed in red:

    Core +1,76V
    Aux +2,53V

    When I put my mouse cursor on these 2 indications, it display a maximum and minimum value for each one. Here they are:

    Core: Max=+1,79V / Min=+1,74V

    Aux: Max=+2,54V / Min=+2,53V


    Any help would be great

    You got your comp hooked up to a tv or something else?

    Sometimes, on some mobos some monitoring proggies may pick up unintended signals from tv&#39;s and suchlike.

    All these readings (temps, voltages etc) have to go through an A2D (analogue to digital) converter. A2D converters are quite slow devices, so it is possible to catch them in the middle of a &#39;refresh&#39;. When this happens, you get strange values which is probably what is happening here.

    It is often possible to check if the A2D is performing a refresh. A good piece of software will do that or look out for these anomalies and read the temp again. It sounds like Hmonitor isn&#39;t doing this.

    Political correctness is based on the principle that it's possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    The cpu temperature is ok from 47c to 59c ( very rarely to 59c) most of the time it&#39;s like 56c. And it didn&#39;t bug like with the HHD temp displaying.

    Thanks for your help

    Perhaps there is a BIOS update for your motherboard that deals with this issue. What motherboard is it? Or check the manufacturers web site for information.
