Motherboard Monitor, or Something Else?
Black Mamba:
SysTool is really cool, especially for hardware freaks.
Everest has had a free version derived from an even older but popular tool called Aida32. If you only need the monitoring stuff and the PC is not top notch that the freeware version could work very well.
Darwin:
Hmm... I'm liking mobmeter EXCEPT that it's using 11MB of RAM - having its window on top or minimized makes no difference. I'm going to give systool a shot next. I was a happy Everest (and before that AIDA) user until they ditched the freeware version. Their pricing is really reasonable, though... If you aren't changing hardware all the time, the last freeware version should be all you ever need.
mouser:
i'm liking systool the best so far.
ps. 4mb background usage (compared to 3.5 for motherboard monitor)
Black Mamba:
SysTool leaves behind a SysTool.sys driver in system32 after uninstalled. ::)
I hope I've got rid of it completely although I removed manually the file and some registry entries.
Carol Haynes:
SysTool doesn't recognise my mobo :(
By the way it didn't leave a file in System32 on my uninstall - did you still have it running in your system tray when you ran the uninstaller?
