Finaly got my MX222 working as i wanted, Thanks to Tom for his help via email,

1 what is the best plugin so i can use my MX222 to monitor my Graphics card temps, the card is a X800-XT. Preferably a free plugin

2 when i upgrade to the latest version of LCDC do i need to re-register or can i just upgrade?

Thanks in advance

1. I like to use the advanced features information plug in for temperature. It uses the dallas one wire for sensing temperature. The dallas one wire uncertainty is +-0.5 degrees.

2. If you have already registered once, upgraded your LCDC, and it asked for a new key, you can always get a new key for free since you purchased it already. If it does ask for a key you can obtain a new by entering your email at http://www.lcdc.cc/lostkey.php.

Best Regards,

I got hold of Hmonitor, as i saw a screen shot showing that it will monitor gfx cards with sensors, ive installed it but cant see my gfx on there, i know my card has a sensor as the ati tool displays temp, anyone know how to sort this out????

If you refer to the posting at http://www.lcdforums.com/forums/viewtop ... or+5#12120
, Johnny has used 'speed fan' to sense the temp of the GPU.

I also have a 9800XT. You can use 'speed fan' to sense the temp of the GPU, MBM cannot detect the temp (as far as i am aware). Personally i have 7 probes set up. You wont get anything more accurate than the external dallas probes. I have CPU temp (under die) TEC cold plate, hot plate, GPU temp , North bridge, Motherboard, and external air. All controlled by my MX222

You can also post the question at LCDC about hmonitor. You may be able to get what you are looking for about LCDC and hmonitor. The link is http://forums.lcdc.cc/.
