Smartguardian [DFI special]


Recommended Posts

what are good temps to run at?? i have nothing overclocked, but my chipset temp gets anywhere from 44 to 50c without a full load, and my LDT bus is a red 1.16v and my VBAT+3.0V is a red 3.1V

 

is this something to be concerned about or am i just being paraniod?

LDT bus 1.16v is fine

 

EDIT: Update 05/10/07 changed this to the correct Voltages!

Go to Option - Voltage - and disabled CHIPSET marking

Also for AGP +1.5V disabled the marking

 

This Smartguardian is basically for nF2 & nF3 and don't know the nF4 LDT Bus, so its complicated: This nF4 LDT Bus take the place of CHIPSET and the CHIPSET take the place of AGP +1.5V. :shake:

Pffff :mad: , it's time for a real update from ITE or DFI. :nod:

One ask: searxhing for a version compatible for X64, i fall on ITE Site on Raid driver.. Is a Smartguardian working on WIN64?

The last ITE official supported Smartguardian is for Windows 95/98/NT/2000/ME, about DFI Ihdoctor.zip = Smartguardian which support DFI boards it's no problem with nF3 and Windows XP (32b), but maybe we need to ask DFI (Angry_Games or RGone ....) for this question :confused:, AFAIK it's the same kind of IO.dll to communicate with the chip as MBM used.

 

See here for details ITE (chip) IT8712F EC-LPC I/O :

I have try install the standard version, non X64... The installation is made , just when i launch the soft, the message " File not found:itevio.dll. or this driver is installed on the program files "(x86)" .../ folder installed ITE Smartguard... I think it's just the soft need be "tweaked" for find this file it must search on the bad place... :D a little little little tweaks to do by conceptor....and it works.. a command line to change on software launch for find the files at good place....

( this remember me the Splinter Cell who lcheck the OS installed at launch and send a message at launch... the SP CT work only on Win XP Pro, home, Me 2000,98 etc... I have a MAC pehraps...,.... :shake: .)

Very nice work Joop. Thanks for all the effort. Kudos!

Thank you 'soundx98' for the compliment, also my honours for the great MBM modifications. Evidently i use it also. :nod:

 

Is it work for NF4 X-Al or NF4 Infinity?

Sorry, i'm not sure, usually the DFI 'Ihdoctor' = Smart Guardian is on your DFI CD! when not present? ask DFI for it!

At last it looks like the 'System board Layout' have the proper ITE IT8712 chip. (see POST #1)

 

And 'NF4X INFINITY Features' included:

Hardware Monitor

# Monitors CPU/system temperature

# Monitors 5V/12V/3.3V/5VSB/Vbat/Vcore voltages

# Monitors the speed of the cooling fans

# CPU Overheat Protection function monitors CPU temperature during system boot-up

 

Maybe it is in the BIOS only?, but again ask DFI!

Btw, when you get the answer, can you please let use know? :)

Is there any way to configure the 3.3 rail like you can with the 12v and 5v? I got those working precisely (verified with multimeter on atx connector) but my 3.3 is woefully inaccurate

Unfortunately, I have not found at the moment a way to compensate the 3.3 rail.

 

Working at the moment at a 'smart.ini' update for the DFI LP nF4:

Main screen

LDT Bus

CHIPSET

 

Option - Voltage

Correct 'Data field' voltages & warning with added remarks for:

1) LDT Bus 1.20V [Data field]

2) CHIPSET 1.60V [Data field]

3) DRAM x.xxV [Data field] remarks for example BH-5

and more minor changes.
