    Hi;
    Have a new W3V with bios version 0402 with default installation of PC Probe 2.21, BUT, trying to use a plugin to share PC probe info with Serious Samurize http://www.samurize.com/, installed newer versions of PC probe (2.23.01, 2.23.04, and 2.23.06) and in all receive same msg: "Cant find Lmcontrol procedure".
    Dont know if updating Bios to recent 0502 this will be fixed...
    Any idea?

    Thx.

    PC Probe is a touchy little program.. it doesn't like other probe softwares to be installed, let along run at the same time....

    Thanks,

    No, probably I didn't explain right... Samurize is not a probe soft, just "reads" from oher probe soft (mbm, speedfan, PC probe...)

    (glad that my little "spam jingle" wasn't considered as boring *real* spam)

    No no... I looked into the plugin... it's cool..... I just think there might be something better than pc probe that you could use, maybe... I don't know one off hand, because I use pc probe for the most part...... but I still wouldn't totally trust the numbers it shows..

    Are you sure it can read from pc probe? What exactly is it looking for? That's where we should look.

    Thanks,
    Justin

    yea, there's a plugin 4 samurize to read PC probe values @ http://www.samurize.com/modules/mydownloads/singlefile.php?cid=6&lid=1374 but it works with PC probe v2.23.04, and this version gives me the same error... probably due to having different sensors in motherboard than desktops PC's

    Could be the problem... The desktop pc probe won't work on the laptops.

    yep, all versions tested are looking 4 sensors that are not in my(all?) notebook. But, why was installed 2.11 by default in w3v knowing that does not works? (who knows.)
    Pity.

    Speedfan is able to read 2 temps, but no fan rpms in w3v.
    MBM does not works at all.
