using thermometer......if u dont have one use ur palm...turn ur cpu or better open the cover and feel it.....
To find the temperature, do what Dinz said. I'd suggest an electric thermometer, they're more accurate. BUt don't use your palm. It'll singe you.
To find the voltage, I THINK it's in the chip documentation. theyr'e usually around +/- 12 volts.
i think he means he wants to know how to retrieve it using VB, which i have no idea how. ;)
you might have to use C++ to do that....not sure though.
um...actually there are sensors on most modern motherboards that measure the CPU temp, motherboard temp, fan speed, etc. for example, my current CPU temp is 42C, motherboard temp is 22C, and CPU fan sped is 7500rpm. :)
That's thru some app you have, right?Quote:

yep :) Asus Probe (came with my mobo). it's not a very good one, but the others i've found are either not that good either, or are shareware and i can't find any cracks. :(
Almost every newer MB's have all these featues available in the BIOS! It's not just ANUS MotherBoards *g*
As for how to retrieve this I do not know crap about that! sry
All new hardware monitoring devices use the SMBus to detect each devices' status. The SMBus is a serial bus designed mainly for devices inside the computer to communicate to each other.
What you are looking for would be DLLs that let you access the SMBus.

He wants to MAKE one and not use one. sunnyl's link should prove useful, if he knows italian :p
I think he just wants to know how...Quote:
