Appendix E. Installing The Winbond Hardware
Monitor Software
The Winbond hardware monitor software is a self-diagnostic system for PCs. It will protect PC hardware
by monitoring several critical items including power supply voltage, CPU and system fan speeds, and
CPU and system temperatures. These items are important for the operation of the system; errors may
result in permanent damage to the PC. Once any item is out of its normal range, a warning message will
pop up and remind the user to take proper measures.
The following description will tell you how to install the Winbond hardware monitor software and use it.
Insert the AT7 series CD into your CD-ROM drive. It should execute the program automatically. If not,
you can go to the CD location and execute the execution file from the main directory of this CD. After it
is executed, you will see the screen below.
Click “Utility” button.
Click “Hardware Monitor” button to start install
the hardware monitor system utility.
