Steampunk CPU GPU Thermometer Widget for Speedfan

Description

A Steampunk CPU/GPU thermometer for your Windows desktop. Fed up with the standard windows interface I've created another Steampunk look for an essential utility which provides temperature information - preventing overheating damaging your laptop/desktop PC. Does a real job and looks good too. Be aware that it needs Speedfan and Yahoo widgets - If you don't understand why please don't download my widget... :-)

NEW version - Beta - any problems let me know.

Please be aware this widget is in beta! This version is Windows only, MAC version coming soon. Require…s Speedfan to extract the temperatures from hundreds of different types of PC hardware.

All javascript widgets need an engine to function, in this case the widget uses the Yahoo Widget Konfabulator engine. The engine interprets the javascript and creates the widget according to the XML description and using the images you provide.

This widget works with Windows XP SP3, it has been tested on Vista, Windows 7/8  and 10.

You will,  of course, need the Yahoo widget engine for this widget to run. Link here g6auc.me.uk/ywidgets_sdk_setup… or the Mac version: rickyromero.com/widgets/downlo…

(This downloads the Konfabulator™ SDK and it has all you need to get started without all the other widgets that normally come wrapped up too).

You'll also need speedfan which you can get from here: www.almico.com/speedfan.php. (Yahoo widgets are the runtime engine for the widget and speedfan gets the temperatures from all sorts of PCs, this widget is an interface to speedfan.)

Hope you have as much fun with this widget as I do - please leave feedback and click on a few likes!
