Whats up good people?

I have a little problem using Realtemp. (The newest ver.)
When I run it it doesnt quite recognize the CPU.
When I run sensor test like 5-10 min in, it freezes my pc.

I am running Vista Ultimate 64-bit
My CPU is Core 2 Quad Q9550 @ 2.8

Any help would be much appreciated! :p

Hehe, Kevin knowns about you. :) This is his answer to your unrecognized CPU
The Specification box in CPU-Z shows the exact information that is written into the CPU. For some reason, it doesn't have a model number in that box so RealTemp reports ----. Sometimes with Intel ES Engineering Sample CPUs, Intel leaves out that information but with most retail CPUs that information is always there.

You might want to read the readme.txt that came with the software package.

Add the appropriate GPU=x (x= number for you GPU) line to your realtemp.ini file.
-use GPU=2 if you have an ATI GPU
-use GPU=1 if you have an Nvidia GPU
-use GPU=3 if you have one of each
-use GPU=0 if you have neither GPU or if RealTemp crashes or is unable to start because of the ATI code.

Ok that is no big deal then but It freezes when I run the sensor test. I tried it twice using different versions too.
