Kinda stumped here...I installed the latest NVIDIA drivers (Beta 101.41) and there isn't an option to check GPU temps. Am I missing something?? I'm running Vista Home premium. Any suggestions are welcome!!

Thanks ;)

I'm not familiar with those specific drivers, but are you sure there is no temperature monitoring option there? (Normally found under 3D Settings Performance option in the control panel).

If not, then you can try SpeedFan as a previous poster suggested. All depends whether your motherboard has a sensor that is capable of reading the PCI-E bus to get the sensor reading from the graphics card.

I know with the latest GF8800 XP drivers you have to download NTune to see the temps and fan speeds. It's not built into the drivers. It should tell you this when you try to see the temps. Kinda a pain IMO, but more powerful/useful too.
