What are Motherboard Monitor's two 'hoops' in system tray?

When I run Motherboard Monitor I see two hoops on the right hand edge
of XP's system tray.

What piece of hardware is this related to? Why not try asking in a group
that is acutally related to your problem?

Better yet, did you read the help file that came with it?

This relates to a homebuilt PC which I want to overclock. The config
is quite power hungry and I want to avoid memory errors and the like
from poor voltage/temperature control of the motherboard and its
peripherals.

My bad... I'm sorry... really. For some reason I read "Network Monitor"...

My guess is that the two "o" symbols are degree symbols. Haven't been in the
settings for MBM for a while, but I'm guessing that you have the "Use a
windows font..." selected on the "Tray & OSD" section. I'm looking at
v5.3.5.0.

BTW, I appreciate the civil reply as well.

Hope this helps a bit.

It is software. This is not a software newsgroup.

The crossposting was excessive too and didn't specify a
followup group.

FURTHER, it is quite selfish to expect someone to do your
work for you, but to not let anyone else benefit from it in
the future with the "X-No-Archive: yes".

RTFM!

x-no-archive: yes

Kony, my posting relates to a software utility which is used only to
understand hardware behavior.

I reckon you wouldn't complain about a software memory usage monitor being
dicussed, you probably wouldn't complain about BIOS settings being
discussed. Nor about hardware reporting utilities like AIDA/Everest,
Sandra, FreshDiagnose, PC Wizard, etc. These are software too.

So why make an issue now out of MBM?

I guess maybe you got up on the wrong side of the bed that day you posted.
:-)

I guess you are right about over-crossposting. I try to limit myself to 4
as advised by the standards. But I came across so many hardware groups it
was hard to do it this time. Apologies if it upset you. I will bear that
in mind.

Got to say that I hate FollowUp-To because if I am a regular visitor to only
one of the crossposted groups then I will miss the rest of the thread even
if I actually reply to it.

You seem to insist on FollowUp-To and just for you I will use it but I
believe it loses people who might have been interested in the outcome but
who don't want to subscribe to a new group.

At least RFC 1036 explicitly allows 'Followup-to' to name multiple groups so
I will choose a small subset of two.


FURTHER, it is quite selfish to expect someone to do your
work for you, but to not let anyone else benefit from it in
the future with the "X-No-Archive: yes".

Sorry about the X-No-Archive. However no later reader will miss much
because any replies (like yours) will quote the relevant parts of the text.

According to the RFC, X-No-Archive is only a request and databases are free
to ignore it. It was implemented only releavtively recently in an RFC
update so it can be assumed to be a viable option.


RTFM!


RTFM? But it's not in the manual.

If you can guess the answer then maybe you should be able to say some more.

Here is a pic of it.

The hoops still appear even if I display apps like IE in full screen
mode.

What do the hoops do and what do they indicate?

What makes you think they have anything to do with MBM?

I stop MBM and the two hoops go away.

I restart MBM and they come back.

Oh I see. Very odd.

Do you see them when you run MBM?

No. Actually I don't run MBM, but when I did, I didn't get the hoops.

Sorry I can't help
