CPU Monitor

[EvilCrow]

I need a program that will display my CPU's speed, temperature, etc. on my desktop so I don't need to keep opening the same prog when I want to check my temps.

try this http://mbm.livewiredev.com/
i have it display my temps on my taskbar by the clock

MBM doesn't read any of my temps, or do I need to reboot it first?

[sam]

you have to set it up first.

use the "MBM5 help" with settin it up. look under programs-mbm5- mbm5 help

Woah, I installed MBM and enabled the heat alarm and it said my CPU was running at 79C, which is impossible.

So, I checked Aida32 which normally says I'm running at about 46C, and it too said 79C.

So, I shut down the system, booted it up, opened BIOS, checked my temps and they were in the 40s.

Obviously, MBM doesn't like my system, or I used the wrong sensor??

try a different senser, or maybe your mobo is incombatible with this program i have tried it on a few computers and it is not always compatible

I just don't understand how Aida32 and MBM both said it was 79C?
