Windows 10: Motherboard sensor no longer working with windows 10

Do I really need to re-install 8.1 to see if it's a software issue? Because before I went to 10, it worked fine. But now in speccy and OpenHardwareMonitor, I am unable to get a reading. Obviously, if you can't tell, I'm a bit of a noob. Any thoughts or help?

Windows 10 , New motherboard , Activation no longer working...Help please running 1511 , how to update to 1607 for troubleshooting.

If your original win 7 came pre-installed it is/was tied to the original motherboard. When you upgraded to win 10 it was still tied to the original motherboard. You are going to have to purchase a key

new mobo=new computer=new license

In order to determine the actual state Windows is in, run this command in an elevated command prompt and then paste the contents of report.txt in your reply: report.txt should be on your desktop.

Licensingdiag.exe -report %userprofile%\desktop\report.txt -log %userprofile%\desktop\repfiles.cab

 

Windows 10 , New motherboard , Activation no longer working...Help please running 1511 , how to update to 1607 for troubleshooting.

Hi , I had Windows 10 working perfectly , it was via a free upgrade from windows 7 , BUT my motherboard went faulty , I had to send the motherboard back , They refunded me and I had to make a new choice of board.....new motherboard fitted , all put back
together...hardware all working great !

Anyway , Windows 10 now says Windows is not activated.

I know this is because I have changed my motherboard , my current version of Windows is 1511 , I have read that I need 1607 to be able to access the troubleshooting option , which I assume will re-activate my Windows key ?

I did take a copy of the windows 10 key , by using a keyfinder and saved it to my computer in txt , but even when I re-enter the original Windows 10 activation key via cut and paste, it checks the key , then fails the key .

My version of Windows says I am upto date.....but its running 1511 and not 1607 .

Help Please how do I fix my situation

 

Not 100% positive, but pretty sure you need to install the ATKPackage from here,

ASUS ROG G751JT | Notebooks | ASUS Global

 

Hmmm... thanks. I mean, I did. But I wonder if the windows ten version is what's doing it. The ATK package for 8.1 works fine with ten.

 

It may be that Asus pushed the newer driver out too soon. If the Windows 8.1 driver works, use it. What does Core Temp show if you run it?

 

Nah, the 8.1 version isn't making it work. I could have sworn it was fine with 8.1 and not 10. So, I guess the only way to see if this is software related is to install 8.1. I can always just go back to a system image of ten. But if it's physically not working, is that an issue? Can it affect the fan and when it turns on or anything like that?

 

I am confused... I'm talking to people and they're telling me there is no "motherboard" sensor. The CPU, GPU, HDD's, sure... But why even have a motherboard sensor? The things that would make the motherboard hot are already monitored. I've gone through several high end laptops and have always had a reading of a motherboard temp, but now I'm confused. Is this just something speccy removed? Do these laptops even have a motherboard temp? What the heck? Because I'm talking to someone who knows a lot more about computers than me and he's saying there's no reason to have a motherboard sensor or monitor it's temp and how that makes no sense.
