[misterhouse-users] Ibutton problem with new CPU

[Clive F. <sc...@fi...>]

I have built myself a new box based on an Athlon 64-bit 3800+, and am
slowly enabling my misterhouse applications.  Everything runs incredibly
fast, but I am having problems with my ibutton temperature sensors.
They run fine using the Dallas iButton viewer, and they are correctly
detected and listed by misterhouse.  But I am only getting a few
successful readings each day in misterhouse.  I suspect that this may be
because of the AMD Cool & Quiet technology, which minimises power
consumption by varying the processor speed (to meet the requirements of
what the processor is being called on to do at any one time) - see eg
http://www.techwarelabs.com/reviews/processors/socket-939/index_2.shtml
.

I am using win XP with SP2, and an Asus A8V Deluxe motherboard.

Any suggestions?  Is anyone else using an Athlon 64-bit processor, and
if so, are they getting temperature readings?
