JujitsuFreak, Thanks for your reply! Yeah, I've tried Mobilemeter as well. Also, just to clarify, I wasn't calling the CL56 a dinosaur. I said that maybe other people consider it one. Maybe they don't, either. Anyway, I love mine and...
-Bump- OK ... so, maybe the Compal 56 is considered a dinosaur now compared to, say, the ASUS Z71V, but I know a lot of you have this laptop. Any CL56 owners, if you have found a way to monitor your CPU temps, I'd appreciate a...
