Incorrect voltage readings

What's wrong with this picture? If you said you're voltage readings are totally fubar then you're correct. Been this way ever since I've built this system but everything runs the way it should and never crashes.

Makes no sense. Anyone have a clue what could cause this?
 
From my understanding voltage can be misread by 3rd party programs or even the motherboard itself.
Also, some motherboards have power saving features where it undervolts when idle. Did you measure the voltage under load?

in any case, try measuring the voltage of the power supply directly.
 
I wouldn't trust third party prog either....use a tester. Voltage reading can vary, depending on what's not even running, but drawing voltage anyway.
 
Your PC couldn't even function if the voltages were that low. Either Everest is misreading the sensor output (Due to insufficient support for the chip type, whatever) or something's wrong with the sensor itself.

Your PC must be relatively new if it's running Windows 7: Check your CMOS settings for a menu related to hardware monitoring and see what the voltage readouts are there.
