thanks,you should leave RC11 that people know about change.

-Cpu VID info on the main screen instead of the timer.

RealTemp is back to ver. 3.30 RC11

I am using XP and I get the "Driver Not Loaded" error. I see the fix for Vista to right-click and select run as Admin. But XP doesn't seem to have that option.

Thanks!

Real Temp 3.35
http://www.fileden.com/files/2008/3/...alTempBeta.zip

Lots of minor changes behind the scenes including better support for Intel's new socket 1156 CPUs as well as their new Core i7 mobile CPUs.
Changes include:
-the use of the i7 Turbo method to calculate the multiplier for all CPUs. If this causes a problem for older Core 2 CPUs that may have the internal timers disabled then you will need to add this line to the RealTemp.INI file to use the previous method:
MSRMulti=1
The new i7 Turbo based method when used on a modern Core i7 or i5 CPU with C3/C6 enabled in the bios will be able to show you the multiplier of the hardest working core which in my opinion and Intel's opinion, best represents how fast your CPU is actually working. This method also works well with Core 2 mobile CPUs that support Intel Dynamic Acceleration (IDA).
The i7 Turbo method allows Super Low Frequency Mode (SLFM) to be displayed correctly on the Core 2 mobile processors that support this feature. A multiplier of 3.0 at idle when this feature is enabled is typical.
-the elapsed timer has been fixed so it shouldn't lose time any more.
-a work around for an incorrect bios setting was found for the missing core issues that sometimes plagued Quad core owners.
-a Task Manager based load meter (TM Load) was added as an option. The original load meter is based on the percentage of time a CPU is in the C0 state which is very accurate for many CPUs. Mobile CPUs work completely different and this number does not accurately reflect the load of the CPU at idle so now you have an option.
-the XS Benchmark was changed slightly so now you can Cancel it while it is running and you shouldn't see any more, "Program isn't responding" messages when it is fully loaded testing.
-an option to display your temperatures in Fahrenheit was added. Just add this to your RealTemp.INI file.
Fahrenheit=1
-the Settings window has been reworked for better consistency in preparation for possible future upgrades.
-only maximum VID is displayed in the Settings window for Core 2 owners for less confusion. This option will display real time VID on the main screen.
-an option to Disable Turbo Mode on Core i5/i7 CPUs.

RealTemp 3.36

The only change was that the elapsed timer that I just improved for better accuracy was counting while in stand by mode which I didn't like so I fixed it. The RealTemp elapsed timer should only count up while the computer is running.

I made some progress on updating RealTemp tonight to support the new Gulftown CPUs.
Internally they seemed to be organized as 2 x 3 core CPUs. If you download the above version of RealTemp and copy it into two different folders then you can go into the first folder and edit the RealTemp.ini file.
Use this:
Skull=1
and in the other RealTemp folder you can use add this to RealTemp.ini
Skull=2
Now run two instances of RealTemp, one from each folder and each one should be able to read 3 of your 6 cores. Not a perfect solution but at least it's a start.
It will read the correct TJMax from each core and should show the correct temperature.
After I get some feedback I will look into writing a 6 core specific version of RealTemp but hopefully this will keep users happy for a week or two.

Real Temp GT

There are two versions of RealTemp in this download. If you have a new 6 core Gulftown CPU then try running RealTempGT.exe

It's officially called beta 3 but everything is hooked up now and I've done some testing so hopefully it is ready for prime time. If anyone has 10 minutes to spare, post a CPU Cool Down Test of these new 32nm sensors. I don't think they are quite as good as the excellent Core i7-900 series sensors but I'll have to wait for some retail processor testing about 6 months from now before passing final judgment.

If you see any bugs let me know.

When run on a Gainestown Dual Quad system, RealTemp GT should show the first 3 cores of each CPU. I'm using the numbering scheme 0 1 2 4 5 6 partially for this reason and partially because internally in the new 6 core CPUs, they are arranged in two groups of 3.

This program works fine on a Dual Core CPU but will only show 3 of your 4 cores if you have a single Quad. It's not designed for these so use the regular version of RealTemp.exe instead.

This new code is in RealTempGT.exe and hopefully by tomorrow I can add that code into the regular version of RealTemp
Thanks again for bringing that problem to my attention.
