I want the bar for each individual core to become a certain color when the CPU core temperature reaches a certain value. I have most of it working except one feature I would like to have. HWiNFO is really a nice program, and although it takes some effort to find and set up the measure options you need, that is going to be true of any approach for monitoring sensors, (which vary wildly depending on the hardware) and I have found it to be really robust and reliable. Im having trouble creating a Rainmeter skin that reads off CPU temperature values. I haven't had the issue in a while.Īnyway, glad to help. However, the latest beta of HWiNFO and the 2.0 version of the Rainmeter plugin seems to have stopped this from happening. I had to edit and toggle between them when this happened. it seemed that after a "hard boot" it would sometimes come up with one of two ID numbers for it. I used to have that issue from time to time with my GPU and HWiNFO as well. Installation: In Rainmeter, create a new Skin under the illustro package and paste the code from cpu.ini here. Hopefully this isn't going to be a regularity. A simple Rainmeter Skin in the illustro Style to display Cpu Temp + Frequency. Well, with just one small letdown so far: After rebooting the system the IDs of my graphics card (MSI 970) has changed, so I had to edit the skin again (using "Graphite" from Deviantart as a basis at the moment). Tannhaeuser wrote:YES! This is doing the magic! Already playing around with it - and it works. Ok, we are all on the same page now, here is the skin: The HWiNFO plugin for Rainmeter that will be installed by this skin is incompatible with earlier versions of HWiNFO, and if you have existing HWiNFO skins you will need to extensively edit them to work with the new app and plugin. This skin requires that you get and run the latest HWiNFO (portable or installed) of version 4.47 or later for your 32bit/64bit architecture from:ĭO NOT INSTALL THIS SKIN IF YOU ARE RUNNING AN EARLIER VERSION OF HWiNFO, or HAVE EXISTING SKINS that use it, and don't want to upgrade to at least 4.47. Hey all, Ive made a small widget style skin for background monitoring of CPU and GPU temperature, usage, and clock speeds. My Documents), emerging from the arc reactor core. Hard disk capacity and Temperature details, RSS feeds, and of course, shortcuts to the system folders (e.g. However, there are a few interesting things about this skin. I attached zipped copies of the HWinfo skin and the ALl CPU Meter config files. The Gemini Suite is a simple Rainmeter skin with CPU, RAM, and storage widget and a date-time widget on top. CPU is an AMD FX-8350 and it has just the CPU 0 temp sensor. This image will be of great help as you are setting your options: HWinfo shared memory is enabled and I can see the CPU 0 sensor and all of its entries, the temps are reading live in the shared memory viewer too, and I am fairly sure I have the values entered correctly. You will need to use the SharedMemoryViewer.exe that is included in the folder of the skin, to set the HWiNFO measures to reflect YOUR hardware.
There are many missing dependencies in the portion of code you provided.Here is an example skin you can tear apart to see how to use the plugin. If you need any further help, please zip and email me the complete skin from your My Docs folder. I created a new skin using your code and changed 2 of the measure names to match the value you are using in the meter. Look at the Log and Skins should tell you exactly what is working or not. Hint: Right click the Rainmeter icon and select "About". And then that name without the brackets, but otherwise spelled identical, is what you provide in the meter for the MeasureName parameter. Each measure must have a unique name indicated in the brackets. I'm not sure what you mean by stating "(i edited the top of all these with MMSIAGPUU)", but that is your main issue. Remember to right-click the skin and select Refresh skin, and you should be able to read your fan speeds, GPU temps, and more. Change this parameter to PluginsMSIAfterBurner.dll. By default, the Plugins parameter for Mii System Skin 2 is set to MSIAfterBurner.dll. First you need to know which application and corresponding Rainmeter plugin a skin is using to measure sensor values. This will ensure the plugin is functioning properly. Then, edit your skin by right-clicking the Rainmeter skin > Edit skin. And make sure the provided skin works before trying yours.
