Call for a Coder to build a Tempurature Monitor

Crashes my Rainmeter without any error message (expect for windows 7 saying "Rainmeter has stopped working").
Yes, I used the 32bit one.

Try this and check Rainmeter.log.

Please try this. I fixed some NULL pointer access violations, and added more debug logs.

i refresh the skin about 10 times and everything is fine

the readings, and the cpuid hardware monitor readings

I guess it is / was the the fact that I have an ATi Card that crashed the plugin.

Now I only get this

I'll also help testing

Running i7-920 with dual gtx285.
Might be interesting to have someone who has 2 graphics cards to test


About how CPU (and probably gpu) temperatures are calculated:
Every CPU has it's own "TJ Max" (Thermal Junction Maximum). This is the theoretical maximum temperature a CPU can operate on. For most CPU's this is between 85°C and 100°C, which is way too hot for a normal CPU to run (for instance a Core2 Quad shouldn't run higher than 65°C). Now the motherboard will not report the actual temperature but the distance away from the TJ Max.
So let's see:
Core Temp = TJ Max - Distance to TJ Max
So if you have a i7 for example, which has the TJ Max at 100°C, and an application reports the temperature is 35°C (yes, I have a good cooler), the calculation is:
35°C = 100°C - 65°C
That 65°C is what the motherboard is actually reporting back.

Just some info, some might be interested

I'll try running it now.

EDIT: Right, how do I get the temps to show up? I copied the WinRing to a couple of places and looked around but I don't see how I can get (the skin?) to work.

[maminscris]

after you copy plugin in plugins folder, and winring in rainmeter folder, restart rainmeter

[boebi]

Nothing happens here :/

[MooseyDoom]

Hey, has anyone gotten the 64-bit plugin working? U used the plugin from r3 and I'm fairly certain I've got winring in the right place (C:\Program Files\Rainmeter), but Rainmeter crashes with "Rainmeter has stopped working" every time I try to open the skin. This is what I got from the debug:

Also, Intel Core 2 Duo T9300@2.5GHz and Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT if that's helpful at all. Thanks in advance!
