Thank you guys for your replies.

And it is Sis 645 chipset.

I actually did try the motherboard monitor, but seems like it doesn't really work either. I actually went into the forum on the MSI website, and everyone with this board, and everyone who knows about it tells that the temperature sensor or the way it measures it is messed up....and that MSI has no fix for it...or at least not yet.

Other than that, it is an awesome board for the price. I bought mine for $74. It allows FSB change in 1Mhz increments, from 100 to 200. Also it has alot of options for overclocking.

I have 1.6A ghz P4, and I am at 133MHz, so that is like 2.12 GHz. I can boot into windows2000 at 150MHz, that is 2.4GHz, but Prime95 will give me errors. I haven't tried anything between 133 and 150, but I just stay at 133 since it is stable and all I aimed for is above 2GHz.

It's just that I wanted to check the temperatures since I did the wire trick to up the default voltage and since I am overclocking. But I just ordered the CompuNurse temperature probe, so hopefully that will help measure the temperature more accurately.

Thanks again.
