In most GPUs all its domains are driven by a a single clock, so you just see a single GPU Clock. But some are different, e.g. some older GPUs or even the latest Navi 3x runs the shaders at a different clock than the frontend. Your GPU has different clock domains so the Geometry Clock reflects the …

Hi Murmak! Maybe there is a chance you can help me, please. I’ve got a 2009 laptop with GeForce 260M, my problem is that none of known apps can read gpu load. I tried hwinfo, gpu-z, msi afterburner. All of them report zero load. I tried different drivers from 2009-2016. No luck. I’m on windows 7 …

Currently I have no idea why this is happening. I'd suggest to disable various options, you already disabled LPC1/2 and SMBus and it didn't work. Maybe try others like ACPI. Still nothing. :/ Nothing I disable helps. Please attach DBG file when all things are disabled, especially LPC1/2 and SMBus.

So, I'm having a bit of a... unique time with my Asus K7M. The board is a Slot A board with an AMD-751 northbridge and a VIA VT82C686A southbridge (personally before this board I have never seen a solution like this). The board uses an Asus-branded chip for sensors I believe (AS61256-8 / 9942S0701 …

Hmm. Both crashes (during CPU clock measurement and L2 cache timing) involve timers. So I'm wondering whether there might be some issue with system timers, but really not sure what exactly.

Hmm, it seems to crash during a normal loop measuring the CPU clock. I'm wondering whether the system runs stable otherwise and no issues in other applications... How about NSSI or similar tools?

Yes We had a little business involving data from a Gxm processor. The FSB would go up and down (12 to 33) but never still at 33mhz. I was wondering, a real time reading of the FSB could be wrong because some oscillator is malfunctioning? I don't know how clock is generated. They were budget …

We try to guess the date encoding because manufacturers use many different formats, however this doesn't work always properly. Try to convert the number in HWiNFO from Dec to Hex and you'll see it 😉
