Bios?

[Schonza]

I"ve updated the bios on my computer just recently. It says when I boot up that it is running f4 (latest bios for my mobo) but on cpu-z it says f2? what does this mean?

CPU-Z is obviously a software now seeing a failure to properly read from the bios there. The post screen is the thing to go by not an older freeware that more then likely needs an updated version.

Oh, ok thanks for that.

That's a typical problem even on the best freeware programs where you see one thing the software says while the hardware says otherwise. SpeedFan for monitoring temps and voltages while a great freebie has had some people more or less "climbing walls" at times when saying the cpu is "cooking"? when the hardware monitor in the bios shows something else. You know yourself that the update went on well since you are able to get here.

Yeah, well that's what I thought, but always good to double check Thanks.
