x800pro ati tool problem

[stevejack]

Hey guys, I have a Palit x800pro and ati tools will not allow me to adjust the fan speed. In the log, the error message is "Temperature monitoring: chip not detected". I thought that the x800 series supported temperature monitoring? Is it likely that this 'Palit' brand simply doesn't have the ability to detect temps?
Thanks in advance,
Steve

did you install a ati catalyst driver probably??

[stevejack]

Hey, yes I have the latest catalyst drivers, I tried to reinstall them too, but nothing has worked so far. I have also reinstalled the ati tool. The fan seems to be on its highest speed constantly. Any ideas?

I have an Asus a8n-sli deluxe motherboard, Athlon64 3500+ Venice, Palit x800pro. could it be that something just isn't set up right?

does the card have a temp. sensor? what's the device id?

did you try uninstalling atitool, reboot, then reinstall atitool?

[stevejack]

yeah i rebooted/install, following the instuctions given elsewhere on this forum.

sorry, im a newb at all this, where do i find the device id?

[stevejack]
