Default Is there an "easy" way to get the hardware parts temperature? - 08-31-2005 , 05:46 PM






Hi,
Is there an "easy" (I mean, with .NET framework and no asm code) to get
the hardware parts temperature assuming there are sensors to sense it? Like
the CPU Core temp or any other parts. I know the temperature of some parts
is available in the BIOS depending on the brand of the motherboard. So is
there a way to get these informations from within .NET? I know it's probably
brand specific, but maybe MS wrapped something around it?

thanks

You can use WMI to get the information. Here's an example:

Hi,

probably exactly what I was searching for, but my system always returns 0
result, so I can't know for sure. I'll try to test it on other computers.

Thanks a lot.
