Introduction
------------
If you don't want to read any other docs, at least read this one!
Please note that MBProbe is designed for experienced users and as such the
docs can get quite technical in places. If you don't understand some of the
terminology, a good place to start is http://www.pcguide.com/

  giveio.sys   : Port I/O driver for Windows NT/2000/XP (c) Dale Roberts
  ntinst.exe   : Installer for the above driver

Installation
------------
1. Create a directory e.g. 'C:\Program Files\MBProbe'.
2. Extract the files into a that directory using your favourite archiver
   e.g. Info-ZIP, PKZip or WinZip.
3. Create shortcuts in the start menu and, optionally, in the Startup group.
4. If you are using Windows NT 4, 2000 or XP, you need to install the
   giveio.sys to allow MBProbe access to the I/O ports.
   Ensure you are logged on as a member of the administrators group.
   Extract MBProbeNT.zip to the drivers directory. This is usually
   'C:\WinNT\system32\drivers'.
   Run the "Command Prompt" (Start Menu->Programs->Accessories in Win2K).
   Type "cd \winnt\system32\drivers".
   Type "NTINST" which automatically installs the driver as a service.
   If MBProbe doesn't works right away, reboot first.

Running MBProbe
---------------
1. Check techinfo.txt for additional settings:
   a. Adjust the temperature and fan labels to match your board.
   b. Some motherboards need to add the "MotherboardType" registry key as not
      all monitoring chips can be safely autodetected.
   c. If the voltage readings are off, try adjusting the voltage divider
      setting.
   d. If the temperature readings are way off, try adjusting thermal diode
      settings.
   e. Adjust the fan divisors as low as possible without the fan speed
      reading dropping to zero.
   f. Socket-7 users will need a CPU temperature offset.
2. Check knownissues.html if you have problems.
3. Read the FAQ if you have more problems.
4. If you can't solve them, then e-mail me using the template below.
   Failure to follow the bug report template may result in your e-mail being
   bit-bucketed (=deleted).

Uninstallation
--------------
1. If you are using Windows 95, 98 or ME, proceed to step 2.
   Windows NT 4, 2000 and XP users need to uninstall the giveio.sys driver.
   Quit MBProbe first.
   Ensure you are logged on as a member of the administrators group.
   Run the "Command Prompt" (Start Menu->Programs->Accessories in Win2K).
   Type "cd \winnt\system32\drivers".
   Type "NTINST -uninstall" to automatically uninstall the driver.
   If you have trouble uninstalling the driver in Windows 2000, try this:
   a. Right-click "My Computer", choose Properties.
   b. Select the Hardware tab, click "Device Manager".
   c. Select the View menu and enable "Show hidden devices".
   d. Expand the new "Non-Plug and Play Drivers".
   e. Right-click "giveio" and select "Uninstall".
   If this still doesn't uninstall it, try deleting the following registry
   keys:
     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\Root\LEGACY_GIVEIO
     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\giveio
2. Delete the directory you installed MBProbe into
   e.g. "C:\Program Files\MBProbe".
3. Remove the shortcuts from the start menu and the Startup group.
4. Remove the registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Jonathan Teh\MBProbe".
5. MBProbe files, program group and registry settings have been removed.

before e-mailing.

Feedback is needed from users with a monitoring chip listed as untested (see
known issues).
