RoHS means ‘Reduction of Hazardous Substances’ (primarily lead). Which means that they used unleaded solder on the board, instead of the old ‘leaded’ kind. I’d expect you’ll have a very hard time finding a manufacturer with that name, but I suppose its possible… Are there any other markings on the board?

It just crashed the entire system after about 15 minutes. SOOOOOO.... back to the original request for information: probably you graphics card driver. Which one do you use on which platform and operating system? the driver manager on my Linux Mint18 system says the driver is: amd64-microcode Version 2.20160316.1 Processor microcode firmware for AMD CPUs Which I guess is the driver if I was using the on-board video but I just looked at the card and written on the back is 'RoHS'. I wasn't to sure if that was the video card's manufacturer so I looked it up.... and it is. Now I'm lost..... I don't know how to find out the specific card or how to install it's driver:( On Sat, Nov 4, 2017 at 6:03 PM, Michael > wrote: As it is looking now it was my card. This is a note to someone who I hope helped: Thanks for inspiring me to look up the video card driver. There was one listed but the button next to 'do not use' was blacked in.

Date Fri, 20 Nov 2009 09:15:23 +0100 From Clemens Ladisch <> Subject [PATCH] k10temp: temperature sensor for AMD Family 10h/11h CPUs The k10temp driver has been in the kernel since 2.6.33. look at the config for your kernel to see if CONFIG_SENSORS_K10TEMP is there. I imagine your kernel already has the moduile built, unless you have been building your own. try 'modinfo k10temp' and see if it is there already. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss -- :-)~MIKE~(-: -- :-)~MIKE~(-: -- :-)~MIKE~(-: -- :-)~MIKE~(-: -- :-)~MIKE~(-: -- :-)~MIKE~(-:
