Yo all,

Just a quick question. I'm trying to check out the temperture of my CPU and can't seem to find a app to tell me about it. The CPU always has a temp value right? I've got one showing my HDD temp but it won't show my CPU temp. Any1 been able to get the CPU temp?

Thanks

Libertine

ps. I'm using Mobile Bench to give me my HDD temp. It doesn't show my CPU temp

Have you tried Mobile Meter (http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley-Oakland/8259/) ?

Nope nothing. The ACPI section is grayed out. Is this is the section i need? Why won't it show?

Something is wrong with your WinXP setup or some other program gained exclusive access to ACPI features (unlikely but possible). Or it is possible that you are working under user account that does not have enough priviledges (non-Administrator) to read ACPI data.

Could also be a lack of temp sensor. My eMachines doesn't have an accessible one, the fan is probably on a thermostat.

Technically P-M has a builtin sensor and it's easy to wire it to make it accessible programmatically. If specs says ACPI is supported, it should be supported (and I checked specs for the laptop in question). Very strange
