D800 Motherboard monitor

Archived from groups: alt.sys.pc-clone.dell (More info?)

Hello All,

I am hoping someone has already gone through this situation and can
recomend software.

I would like to monitor the on die temp and any other sensors the D800
has. Any deszktop can do this, can a a laptop? Can this dell?
Thanks,

Any and all help appreciated.

Asus motherboards have had temperature and fan monitoring hardware for a long
time. Generic stock Intel motherboards do, too, beginning with the D815
chipset.

The OP (or anyone else for that matter) might try downloading Intel's Active
Monitor Utility and installing it on a Dell P4 system. The Dell boards are
certainly not generic Intel, but they are an Intel design using Intel chipsets,
modified to meet Dell's proprietary requirements. You never know. The Intel
Active Monitor Utility may work on a Dell. For those who are not familiar with
it, it's a lot like the Asus & VIA chipset utilities. Here is the URL:

I found a nice app called "MobileMeter" which graphs temps for HD, CPU,
Charge rate, also clock freq. which I noticed goes anywhere between
600mhz and 2ghz.

still looking for fan control and speed-step control. I hate this speed
step dealio.
