I have an Asus P38-F motherboard that is reporting a voltage error in it's internal hardware monitor. It says the -5v rail is reporting -6v (the bios has the option to disable the HW monitor on a per rail basis so the error can be suppressed). What's even stranger is when I measured the -5v pin my multimeter reported that it's +4v. The other power rails all report voltages that are very close to the numbers that the motherboard's HW power monitor is reporting so I don't think it's an issue with my multimeter. I don't technically need the -5v rail, the AWE 64 Gold doesn't have a pad on that pin, but is this error pointing to some deeper problem that I may face down the road?
