So good news! The module works.

Bad news is that the external temperature probe doesn't seem to -- despite showing up in the BIOS. Six temperatures show up in BIOS:

CPU
System
VRM MOS
PCH
CPU Socket
External temperature probe (used to monitor my cooling loop)

However, seven show up on this driver and only five give valid results:

CPU
System
VRM MOS
PCH
CPU Socket

The other two are:

PCIe x1
M2_1

What info can I provide to assist?

I tried extending the temperature sensor registers by 2 (to 9) and unfortunately it just shows 0s, so I don't think this is an easy one I can fix myself.

Thinking about it more, TSEN_1 while it shows in the BIOS is not usable as a fan control source -- this makes me suspect the external temperature probe is actually off of like GPIO or something instead of built into the IC as a register as it would be usable as a BIOS fan control source if it did have a register?

Hello It's hard to find information about theses 2 sensors. I'm not sure that theses sensors are controlled by the nuvonto controller 6687.

That's what I'd arrived at. Thanks for confirming! Maybe someday I'll give it a Windows install and try to figure out where MSI Dragon Control Center pokes to get the TSEN_1 value.

Thank you! -Atma
