Topic title says it all.... Having trouble with core temp, but not interested in their solution (disable driver signing permanently)....

Need suggestions for a good temp monitoring program for x64 Vista Ultimate....

Thanks for your time....
 
I use HWMonitor from cpuid

Everest works well also, but you have to pay for it after a 30-day trial. It's much more extensive and has some neat features though, like putting info into the vista sidebar

Coretemp......search over on Xtremesystems.org for a patch that lets it work on 64-bit. It's a simple batch file you run one before you run coretemp, and it will stop Coretemp from crashing.

Do you mean it is ran only once...then anytime no matter a restart of the pC or not you dont have to rerun it?

Run it every time you want to run coretemp. It's generally run as a batch file which includes the hack and a command to launch coretemp.

What annoys me is Vista asking me if I trust HWMonitor every time I launch it. Is there any way to add programs to an allowed list??

As long as you have admin rights, you can run this line:

C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /k %windir%\System32\reg.exe ADD HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System /v EnableLUA /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
 
I wonder if there's a single program that's accurate in software. SpeedFan 4.33 gives me pretty forgiving readings (never over 50C under load, averages are 22/48) and HWMonitor shows up to 62C under load (36/60). I'm inclined to believe the higher number. To that, I'd guess that HWMonitor is the better option, but how does one verify?
