CPU-Z Readme file ------------------ Version 1.39 February 2007 Contact : cpuz@cpuid.org Web page: http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php Validation page : http://valid.x86-secret.com/ Forum : http://forum.x86-secret.com/forumdisplay.php?f=16 CPUID SDK : http://www.cpuid.com/cpuidsdk.php CPU-Z is a freeware and can be freely distributed. Configuration file (cpuz.ini) ------------------------------ The configuration file must be named cpuz.ini and be present at the same directory level as cpuz.exe. It contains the following : [CPU-Z] TextFontName=Verdana TextFontSize=13 TextFontColor=000060 LabelFontName=Verdana LabelFontSize=13 VCore=0 PCI=ON MaxPCIBus=256 DMI=ON Sensor=ON SMBus=ON - TextFontName : Font used for the information boxes. - TextFontSize : Size of the font used for the information boxes. - TextFontColor : Color of the font used for the information boxes. Value is expressed in hexadecimal, and consists in a classic Red/Green/Blue color code : RRGGBB - LabelFontName : Font used for the label boxes. - LabelFontSize : Size of the font used for the label boxes. - Sensor : Set to OFF disables sensor chip detection and voltages measurement. - PCI : Set to OFF disables the PCI information. This disables chipset, SPD and, depending on the hardware, sensoring information. - MaxPCIBus : Sets the maximum PCI bus to scan. Default value is 256. - DMI : Set to OFF disables the DMI (Desktop Management Interface) information. This concerns BIOS vendor and version, motherboard vendor and revision. - SMBus : Set to OFF disables SMBus information : SPD, and, depending on the hardware, sensoring information. - VCore : Switch voltage report on sensor chip. Parameters ---------- -txt=filename : Launch CPU-Z in ghost mode (no interface appears) and generates the register dump file (.txt) in the same directory as the exe file. -html=filename : Same as "-txt" except it generates the html report. -core=id : Displays clock speed of core #id (id can be set from 0 to Number of cores minus one). Keys ---- F5 : save the current tab in a bmp file F6 : save the current tab in the clipboard F7 : save cvf file in the current directory Cache Latency Tool ------------------ The cache latency tool is now a stand-alone program that is included in the CPU-Z package.

After your driver has been downloaded, follow these simple steps to install it.
Expand the archive file (if the download file is in zip or rar format).
If the expanded file has an .exe extension, double click it and follow the installation instructions.
Otherwise, open Device Manager by right-clicking the Start menu and selecting Device Manager.
Find the device and model you want to update in the device list.
Double-click on it to open the Properties dialog box.
From the Properties dialog box, select the Driver tab.
Click the Update Driver button, then follow the instructions.
Very important: You must reboot your system to ensure that any driver updates have taken effect.
