Pop-up/Alert message

[Barb]

I have received the following message/alert when online. Is this for real
or is it another cleverly disguised sales pitch? I'm worried it is
something that should be checked out by a professional.

"System Alert from Intel---A power supply voltage has gone outside of it's
recommended range
Click the View Details button for more information.

View Details: Sensors have detected that one or more of your system's
cooling and/or power devices went outside of the normal range. However all
sensors have returned to normal.
Click on the View Alert History button for more details.

View Alert History:
8/23/03 l8:58:47 a Voltage [+3.3V] has gone outside of it's recommended
range
8/23/48 A Voltage [+3.3V] has returned to it's recommended range.

Same message for 8/22, and it only lasted a minute also.

Sounds real to me. I know the PCs can watch the voltage
levels of all the outputs of the power supply on some
systems. And they can give you warning if its getting
high or low. Sounds like your power supply might be going
bad. If it keeps it up you might take it to a repair
shop. The powersupplies are cheap compared to a CPU.
