I tried Motherboard Monitor 5.1 and MBProbe 1.30. They both don?t show my third fan and some readings look whacked-out. Is there another program that works better with the EpoX 8KHA+ board?

There`s one on the Epox Utility CD called USDM ,try that.

I tried the USDM Epox Utility and its just as bad plus hard to read. Here is what I mean about whacked-out MBProbe readings...

[Voltage]
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vccp1 = 1.74
+2.5V = 4.95 <------[whacked-out]
+3.3V = 1.52 <------[whacked-out]
+5V = 4.87
+12V = 12.10
-5V = 0.83 <------[whacked-out]
-12V = 2.28 <------[whacked-out]
Vbat = 3.07


[Temperature/C]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Motherboard = 25.0
CPU = 43.5


[Fan Speed/RPM]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CPU = 5035
Chassis = 4090
Aux = 0 <------[missing, but 3-wire fan connected and running]

Anybody else that owns this board experiencing similar readings?

The monitor measured the WRONG voltage. This is actually the AGP voltage running at AGP4x. To me, as long as your system is completely stable, I wont be too bothered with all the readings.

This is my reading on the Epox, but since it is all perfect stability, I really dont care what I am looking at.

CPU Core - 1.82v
+3.3v - 1.52v
+5v - 4.81v
+12v - 11.86v
-12v - 1.63v
-5v - 0.58v
+5v standby - 4.92v
Battery Voltage - 3.12v

This is with a Sparkle 350w

I changed a setting in MBProbe so that it reads voltages using a divider for the Winbond chip and it looks better with the negative voltages.

[Voltage]
~~~~~~~~~
Vccp1 = 1.74
+5VSB = 4.95 <------[ok]
+3.3V = 1.52 <------[AGP4x]
+5V = 4.87
+12V = 12.10
-5V = -4.07 <------[better]
-12V = -11.63 <------[better]
Vbat = 3.07


My fan speed for the power supply fan header still shows "Aux = 0.0 RPM". I tried swapping it with the fan that was plugged into the chassis header and still got no reading.

~~~ UPDATE ~~~

There is NO information for the third fan header (PS FAN) in the BIOS PC Health Status screen. Looks like EPoX was kind enough to add the extra fan header but didn't include it in the hardware monitoring. I feel cheated :(
