I've tried to install Hmonitor, but I does'nt get any info when I start it. I'm using a laptop, Compaq Evo N150, anyone with experience using this or other programs on laptops? |

With a Dual processor motherboard. Pick a good one up for £300 which you can run up to 4.0ghz (2.0ghz each cpu)

Doesn't your operating system have to support multiple processors, I think only Win 2000 does, not sure about XP |

Windows XP Pro and Windows 2000 do support dual processors.
No other operating system will

I think Intel makes dual cpu mobo, go to their web site www.intel.com
They have the expensive Xeon type.
See www.abit-usa.com for Abit range of mobo - they have some nice dual cpu mobo.
Asus too, www.asus.com but these are expensive server class mobo. |

To make use of programs such as Hmonitor, you must have temperature sensors already in place in your computer.
Not sure if notebooks have them, but some desktop PC motherboard have them built in (2 or 3 pick-up ponts, one or two sensors standard).
Otherwise get your own thermistors from the electronic component supply shops - DIY. Thats what I do for my graphics cards.
There are now hardware kits available with a digital display and pre-wired termperature sensors (just stick the sensors on what you want to monitor, connect power plug to kit), no need for software. Fits on the facia of one full slot. |
