I just upgrade to a i7 920 / msi x58 pro-e yesterday.

after clean install with latest afterburner, it works perfectly fine for the first time, but after restart it starts malfunction with a message "Some of MSI Afterburner components are expired, missing or corrupted!"

I did try some other that suggest to install on other PC and copy the folders over, but it did not work.

I also have tried 1.3 version but it does not support 5970 voltage regulation.

anyone know what problem that is here?

PS: I find this board's IOH have some insane temperature, I even replace the heat sink on it still hover around 100c on idle until I put a 60MM fan directly blowing on it, which drops to 84 somehow...
 
Since it only happened after the mobo change, it very well could be a driver conflict with whatever drivers you installed. There's also the possibility of data corruption, although that seems very unlikely since you haven't said anything about having problems with other programs. If I was in your shoes, my next step would be testing different driver versions and see how it works out. As much as I like AMD, their software isn't what I would call polished. Intel also isn't immune to software flaws. I hope you can get it working, as Afterburner is a great piece of tweaking software. Only second to Rivatuner, but it doesn't have R800 support yet..

I don't doubt it... it depends on your case actually. I had an X58 Micro in a cramped case and the Northbridge would run around 80C (passively cooled).
