always show cpu meter?

[Jerome Cates]

Is there a way to always show the CPU usage meter? I used tclock in Win98
which was very handy to have a view of CPU usage and Memory load instantly.
However it seems the author hasn't released (yet?) a XP version?

Thanks

Tclock works fine in Windows XP. No special version is needed.

Just checked it. It does work but I find that the CPU usage meter is blanked
out. And I can remember reading something about this not being available in
XP?

Thanks

You're welcome. I should have checked before I answered earlier,
but I don't see a CPU usage meter to be blanked out. Are you sure
you're talking about Tclock, and Tclockex, a different program?

If you're talking about Tclockex, I don't think that has a CPU
usage meter either, but it does have a System Resources meter. If
that's what you're referring to, the reason it's blanked out is
that Windows XP doesn't have the structure that's called System
Resources in Windows 98 and Me. That's one of XP's big
advantages; there's nothing to run out of, and nothing to be
concerned with.

I used Tclockex years ago, but I personally prefer Tclock.
