According to HWInfo it's a Northwood. To be honest, I hadn't really looked at the spec much, since I was given the machine, and it replaced an old Compaq iPaq desktop that was really struggling.
I'm currently doing a scan with Speedfan running (it's still on Directory Scan and all seems well). However, I haven't really looked around Speedfan yet, and the CPU is reading -128C, which I'm guessing is not right (half way to absolute zero is probably a little excessive!). All other temperatures reading fine though (23-36C). I'll keep an eye on it for when it gets to the meatier processing. Off to download netstumbler to see if I can't get the wireless thing sorted. The neighbours are new, and I'm guessing they're running a wireless network, plus probably some cordless phones, TV senders and - hey - flying a model aircraft round the room just to monkey with my signal some... -- Cessquill ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Cessquill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=330 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=59234 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
