    Temperature Software

    When I was on Vista 32bit, I used this program called I8FanGUi to show me the temperature of my GPU/CPU in my taskbar.



    Is there a program like this for Vista64bit?
    I keep getting a Driver error when I try to install i8fangui on 64bit.

    Try SpeedFan - Access temperature sensor in your computer - or, if you use the Windows Sidebar, there are numerous gadgets that do that as well.

    I'm using SpeedFan now, good program, however, It's not detecting my 8400's temperature.

    It's detecting the other temps.

    I also used Everest Ultimate Edition, it detects all the temperatures, however it does not have built in Fan Control /=



    ..I'm checking out CoreTemp now.

    edit: It seems as though CoreTemp only has support for CPU Temps /=

    Sorry, I misread you wanting to monitor your GPU as well.

    I haven't found one program that does both and displays them in the notification area. Core temp + Speedfan do both.

    Can someone download the 64bit version and see if they get a driver error also?

    Dell Inspiron Inspiron/Latitude/Precision fan control

    sorry for double posting, but after reading a bit, it seems as though I need to disable driver signature feature in vista.

    However, the tweak I found, does not work for Vista x64 SP1, so I guess, I gotta keep searching.
