Re: Server Shuts Down - HELP



Russ,

First things first - again thanks for your help and support.

Second - Damn thing is still going!!

Third - I really didn't have to go into BIOS to disable the setting. Compaq
has monitoring software thats runs and from there I just clink on disable and
the setting was changed. I truely didn't want to reboot that damn thing one
more time. Stupid but true.

But the setting that were set are

I/O boards:49' C
CPU: 39' C

The current temp is 32'C

If the server stays up for more than a week, I will replace the sensors. If
it goes down again I will check to see what (if any) level it is set at.

I will also try the leving it in DOS mode and running the CPU test all night
long to see what is happening.

Again thanks for checking up again.

Ciao
