Is there anyway to get the Systemtemperature by DLL?

Hi there,
would be nice if someone can say me, if there is anyway to get the
Systemtemperature/CPUtemperature and so on by a Windows integrated dll.

bye.

Nope. You need a third-party program from the mobo manufacturer or an
application like the "Motherboard Monitor".
 
That answer was a bit too swift. It is possible, however I would think that
no-one has done it simply because it's not a good way (or correct way) of
doing it.

Well, why don't you get more specific. What's the Windows DLL file
name and what API functions allow for getting these temperature data?
 
Actually it's a WMI call. And I'll be darned if I can lay my hands on it right
now. I can locate everything else. Want to monitor the fans? How about
processor or Ram usage? Or perhaps getting all the stats on the processor is
your prefference today. Those I have at my finger tips but I just can't find
the call for temps :(
Sorry Detlev That's the best I can do for now.

Yep, it's possible to use a WMI script. However, there are additional
drivers necessary for that particular mainboard - provided that there
are adequat hardware sensors. In case of an Intel mainboard, the
"Intel(R) SMBus 2.0 Driver" has to be installed for instance. Anyway,
the OP's question was as following (quote):

Once again, the answer to *that* question is 'no'.

Never mind. Please note that I'm *not* the original poster.
 
I was just pointing out that it is possible but really in most cases it's just
not worth it. There are already so many apps out there that will do it for you.
Besides it peaked my curiosity. since I posted that last message I have been
going through my database looking for it. Still no luck so I quit. For you I
would have kept going 8(

As already mentioned, the "Moherboard Monitor" works with many mobos
provided that there are adequate hardware probes.

Thank you so much. ;)
