Missing temperature menu
I just installed a Sparkle FX 5700. The manual mentions a temperature =
monitoring menu in the display properties as an option. Where can I get this? It's = not included on the CD and is not on the Sparkle's site.. Any idea? |

Right click on your desktop / Properties / Settings / Advanced / GeForce FX
5700 / On the popout menu you will see temperature settings left click on it. "Roger" wrote in message ... I just installed a Sparkle FX 5700.

Hell, if they can make the card cheaper by removing the temperature monitoring readout Sparkle surely does! |

The card doesn't have the temp monitoring circuitry.
The manual is a generic one covering a range of cards. "Roger" wrote in message ... "Dark Avenger" wrote in message om... "Roger" wrote in message ...
