Monitoring the CPU temperature

[Guest]

Hi,

How do I monitor the CPU temperature in Windows Vista? There's no CPU
temperature indicator in task manager->performance.

Regards

Hi Juan,

That sort of functionality is not provided by the OS, it's provided by a
utility from the maker of the motherboard. Check with them for a
Vista-compatible software set designed for this. As this type of software
uses device drivers, it is essential that it be Vista compatible or it will
likely fail.

I second Speedfan (http://www.almico.com/speedfan.php). It works
great, and has a hard drive monitor, temp monitor, fan control, etc.
