i'm using this gadget for temperatures monitoring from several years and i'm wondering if there is a way to "integrate it" in rainmeter.
the desktop sidebar gadget works reading the values from the program. It needs a so called "gadget host" running in tray in order to read the values for the desktop gadget.

Thank u. I didn't know about hwinfo. I was mainly interested to a function of CPUID gadget. it allows me to set a values ranges for each entry and the coloured bar changes its color if the entry value is near to the maximum setted value.
For example... The SSD temperature, i setted temps <38° as safe. If its temperature reaches 39° the coloured bar change in red.
Is this achievable with rainmeter too? I'm sorry, but i'm a newbie, i installed rainmeter from 2 weeks.
It would actually be relatively straightforward to exactly duplicate that widget with HWiNFO and Rainmeter. However, there are a ton of skins more or less like that on deviantART. Perhaps one of them can do the job for you without having to start from scratch:

oh thank u. All those skins will be very useful excercise for learning. Last question. Is it not possible to read the mainboard temp in HWinfo? I can't find it.

Glad to help.
As to what is available in HWiNFO, that depends on what sensors are available on your system. The motherboard temperature is available for me.

My system is a bit hot right now, as I am playing Guild Wars in the background...
