I am asking you, if i can monitor CPU temperature in any computer. Now i have laptop (Lenovo SL 400) and i need to monitor temperature or any parameters such as CPU clock, HDD temperature or others. CPU temperature is most important. I am using OS windows XP and Labview 8.5.x for studying purpose only. Is anythink solution for me how read this temperature from notebooks hardware ? pls help Quote Link to comment
dblk22vball Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 A quick google search (which you should do too) shows that you can get the data through the standard chip/motherboard api's, you just have to know what motherboard/temp sensor chip is installed. That is all the help I will give you since it is a school project, and you need to learn how to do it yourself. If you start coding and get stuck, then post back with some code, and what you are stuck on. Quote Link to comment
Neville D Posted January 30, 2009 Report Share Posted January 30, 2009 If you work it out, it would be nice if you could post a solution here for others to use in their applications. N. Quote Link to comment
Maca Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 If you are really keen you should be able to get that info off the SMBus (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Management_Bus). I think it is also accessible through a win API (see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa394493.aspx). A quick Google search also revealed the following link: http://temperature.myweb.hinet.net/index_en.htm , but I havent tested or even looked at the source code, so I have no idea if it works or not.
