weird -12v and -5v reading

[wesamess]

Hi, I am mostly a lurker here.

I built a rig about 3 months ago with the following specs:

m3m32mvpwifideluxe mobo
asus3870x2
antec 1000w
corsair 1066 dominators.
amd9850be
vista64

For some reason I have a strange reading (which I've just noticed, yes I am an idiot) where my -5v and -12v are just no where near where they should be. I was wondering if there was any other way to check those voltages. And if these numbers are correct, what am I doing wrong?

A little history on my rig:
I had the bsod (clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval) constantly. I sent the processor back to amd. They said nothing was wrong...which I still don't believe...and sent it back to me. So I figured that the motherboard was the problem(lots of people were having the same problem with that board and quad cores) and swapped it with a dfi lanparty ut 790fx-m2r (I should have gotten the cheaper m2rs) but still had the same problem. Then I underclocked the processor to 2.4Mhz which helped out a lot but I still crash and bsod on average 1-2times a day. Overclocking is totally unstable. Uping the voltage doesn't help either. Maybe the bsods and no overclocking potential is because of the voltages?

That's what i thought too.. i always disable -voltages in monitoring apps, as well as VSB/VBAT.

They are not used now - The -12V was used on serial port circuits and -5V for ISA bus based circuits and floppy controlers, you should just ignore those - and btw, your other voltages look good so no problem. Just set them to ignore and only monitor the 3.3v, 12V and 5V

We need a "that was easy" button just like Staples. Welcome aboard wesamess!

Yes that was an easy one - But I remember too being curious about the -12V and -5V back in the days !
