Delasangre4231 Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 I am not 100% sure whats going on because I built the computer for a friend who is terrible at explaining things and not very advanced with computers. But We installed it and it idles around 10C and when I did a stress test on the CPU it wouldn't go over 32C under full load. This is awesome but I see alot of people showing higher temps so is this how its supposed to be? The real issue now is that its been running great for a few days but he said its now showing a notice upon first login to windows that his CPU is running like -30C and at some -voltage number. At least that's what I can make of his computer illiterate jumbo. So is there a malfunction where its not reading right or is just needing to fully initialize on startup?

wytnyt Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 theres no way these readings are correct,what you see others have are the normal why your friends are so low ,one can only speculate without at least a little info.a screen shot of link and its devices page would help.you can check to see what other monitoring programs are installed as this can confuse readings.looking in your bios will show more accurate temps.

LennonNZ Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Unless you live in a Fridge 10C Idle sounds pretty wrong. The CPU temperature cannot be lower than ambient room temperature. Say for example you room temperature is 22C then maybe your CPU would Idle at 30C. If your Idle temperature is 10C then your room temperature might be 0C which in my opinion would be a little cold for you to be in. :-) (Or maybe thats the best way to cool a computer) It sounds like you have to add 20C to your readings to get the correct figures. Why its doing this.. Its impossible to say really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 computer components,programs installed .link status would be a big help for possible diagnosis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 I am running Speccy and Corsair link and Asus AI suite. I am pretty sure when we were looking in the bios it backed up those temps. I just remote logged into his computer and in corsair link it was not showing any reading for either fan or the pump, no temperature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 first thing i would do is uninstall aisuite,its been proven they dont work together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryman Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 speccy and corsairlink shouldnt cause problems with corsairlink although you may get wrong motherboard temp on speccy if corsairlink is running...although aisuite on the other hand DONT RUN WITH CORSAIRLINK causes LOTS of problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Ok so I uninstalled AI Suite 2 and the computer is rebooting. I will see if Corasir link will show everything again. One thing to note is that I looked in AI Suite and it showed the computer was idling at 28C so thats more likely? Hopefully With AI suite gone it will show correct readings in Corsair Link?

wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 a cold boot is needed to re-initialize link,not just a reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 As in shut down, press power button, vs restart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 As in shut down, press power button, vs restart? let the computer remain off for 15 seconds to fully reset things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 So AI is gone and I used the cleaner tool, Link is still not showing anything still so I am going to reinstall that. But I think speccy is showing weird temps too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 it may be best to clean any monitoring programs and redo link,just to be sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 That didn't work, do I need to reinstall the Link USB Dongle (Drivers) too? Everything is uninstalled and it wont display fan speeds on Link All I get is 32C water temp, 10C CPU Temp, HDD and graphics card, but no LED Indicator or pump or fan speeds.

wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 when you uninstalled link did you also delete the profiles and appdata/corsairs folders? if it initially worked then its a conflicting program or not a fully uninstalled link. i delete the dongle first myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 If I delete the dongle how do I install that part again? Does it come with link? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 If I delete the dongle how do I install that part again? Does it come with link? yes its a part of the install,upon installing link,a window pops up asking for dongle install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Still wont work. If I switch to the other profile I made it shows -32c water temp so I am not really sure whats what? Different temps on different profiles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 explain how your going about deleting your link please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wytnyt Posted August 11, 2013 Share Posted August 11, 2013 im getting ready for bed but it sounds like your not fully doing a uninstall,particularly the profiles do this go to add/remove programs and remove usb dongle,then uninstall corsairlink2 then go to c:/programs/x86 and delete corsair folder then go to start menu/current user/appdata/roaming/corsair and delete corsair folder then do a coldboot now install Version 2.3.4816 and see if that fixes things...

Delasangre4231 Posted August 11, 2013 Author Share Posted August 11, 2013 Ahh see I couldn't find the folder, I was uninstalling link 2 then the dongle, reboot and reinstall. I will try to remove the corsair folder. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
