You're encountering an issue where the LM-Sensor tool isn't detecting the Vcore value on your Pentium G3258 HTPC. It seems like other sensors are functioning normally but aren't interfacing correctly with LM-Sensors. This could be due to a configuration mismatch or a specific behavior of the Pentium processor. After running `sudo sensors-detect`, ensure you're using the correct driver version and that your system's BIOS supports the necessary features. If the problem persists, consider checking the hardware specifications or consulting the manufacturer's documentation for any special setup steps related to this chipset.
I attempted it but it still won't display vcore. Apologies for the issue.
lmfao so I ran it again for shits and giggles and it randomly worked this time. It discovered another sensor and gave every voltage the motherboard read The catch -- it coincided with the motherboard in question suddenly refusing to take notice of the multipler. It's set clearly, but both in the OS and in the BIOS it is just showing the 3.2GHz stock clock speed I could reset CMOS, but being a very cheap motherboard the clear cmos button is on the front of the board and not in the IO board, and being a HTPC getting at the motherboard would involve finding a screwdriver ffs >_< Fwiw the stock Pentium is enough for what I use it for, but it's the principle dammit!
LOL, yeah that's just damn typical isn't it. Did you try i-nex app?, just in case it's a bug. Yeah, for my personal rigs,I have gone with a mobo that has a reset CMOS button in the IO, just in case I have some hardware in there that's obscuring the battery or whatever as I tend to go for m-itx boards now for easier re-purposing down the line as an HTPC, NAS or whatever. If you didn't mind modding the case of your HTPC a little, you could wire up a momentary switch to reset CMOS.
