9600 XT Smartdoctor problem

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.videocards.ati (More info?)

Forgive me if this is a stupid question but I am having a problem with
Asus smartdoctor. It no longer shows the advanced features although
it did previously. (voltage, temperature and fan)
I have a Asus 9600 XT card and smartdoctor was
working a treat when I first had it but it doesn't now.

The only change I have made is to get a 2500+ xp barton cpu and install
it. I didn't even change the drivers. Surely this couldn't do it?

I am new to the ati world having been reprieved from the nvidia side.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Matt,

I did what you said and removed my secondary display and the
advanced features came back briefly. I am going to try to remove all the
drivers and reinstall them, hopefully this will do the trick permanently.

Thanks again

Konichiwa.

Just to update on this thread incase anyone else has this same problem.

I have just tried setting my clock speed to 100Mhz to simulate a drop in
processor and guess what? Smart Doc shows all the extra features but as
soon as I go back up to 166Mhz they disapear? Good programming Asus!
