SIW and CPU's Temperature
I've added code to display the CPU's temperature for Intel's Core Duo/Solo, Core 2 Duo/Extreme, Xeon 5100 and all AMD's K8 chips.
The temperature readings are very accurate as the data is collected from a Digital Thermal Sensor (or DTS) which is located in each individual processing core, near the hottest part.
The beta version can be downloaded from http://www.gtopala.com/siw_beta.html
If you have a Core or a K8 CPU, please test it and let me know the result.
I don't know the meaning of Sensor0 and Sensor1 for AMD K8. Do you?

I'm using a Pentium D 3.2ghz, and using the latest version of SIW, but I can't find the temperature in SIW...under 'sensors' I do see the temp reading for GPU and hard drives. What am I doing wrong? thanks, Tim
Pentium D is not a "Intel's Core Duo/Solo, Core 2 Duo/Extreme, Xeon 5100".
It doesn't have the DTS.
I have a 500 Gigabyte Western Digital hard drive model number WD5000AAKB-00UKA0. The specs on this drive say 7200 rotational speed. Your SIW utility (all versions) says it is a 5400 rpm model. Is this correct? I have another drive,a 20 G Western Digital, on the same system but your utility confirms the rpm specs on the drive.
WD5000AAKB-00UKA0 issue: are you using SIW 2010 build 0428?
