It's shareware but it's simple and works.

Try Motherbaord Monitor - this also costs nothing and is the best
motherboard monitoring program out there in my opinion. It is used by the
majority of overclockers.

For the life of me I can't get MBM to work on my machine. I have an 8RDA+
with an xp2500+. It doesn't give me any temp readings no matter how I try to
set it up. The Hmonitor program set right up and reads all of the temps
voltages and fan speeds. Got any ideas what might be wrong? Besides the fact
that I don't know what I'm doing.


Sorry, dunno, but according to the mbm-supported mainboards list, it
should just work.

So as I see it there are a couple of options.
a) MBM doesn't recognise the sensorchip
b) You forgot to tell it which hardwaresensor to connect to each
sensor-readout (by default, none is selected)

Easiest way to check - go into mbm5, general, system info, and hit
the little computer on the bottom. It will generate a report, which
will say what sensorchip is being used, possible sensors, selected
sensors, and their readouts.

Go into your BIOS and see if it reports any temparatures. If it does,
then, assuming you picked the right sensor, you should get a reading
in MBM.
Worst comes to worst - you may have to go thru all the sensors
available in MBM. I would recommend that you decrease the sample time
so you don't have to wait a long time between each reading.
