I have two case fans, and my MB's BIOS is showing both their speeds (a bit under 800 RPM), and the CPU's fan speed (around 2000 RPM). But MBM5 shows this:

CPU fan (Fan 1, around 2000)
Fan2 (zero)
Fan3 (792)

Why can't MBM pick up the speed of the other case fan? I looked in the settings and I can set any fan to any fan device, but there's just 3 available (and also none and custom).

If you have something older than 5.3.7.0 installed, you will need to remove older and install this first. It is also available at http://www.MajorGeeks.com under Diagnostics.

Actually, I did have 5.3.7.0 installed. I hadn't run the update, though. Turns out I had it on my system, downloaded 2 years ago. I downloaded the update again and installed it, but I see no difference. :confused:

Oddly, MBM reports both a CPU and case temperature, but in the BIOS's PC Health menu, only the CPU temperature is represented. I wonder why they wouldn't also show the case temperature in there. Also, I thought that mobo's usually have 3 temperature sensors, or at least sometimes.
