Hardware Monitor Widget Edition 2.2
Hardware Monitor Widget Edition - Dashboard version - shows hardware sensor readings more>>
The widget allows you to select two of your computers sensors which should be displayed via Dashboard.
The sensor readouts are displayed in a compact panel.
Unlike other widgets, Hardware Monitor is capable of processing the hardware calibration data Apple stores individually into each G5-based computer. So it displays the exact readings Mac OS X internally uses for cooling control, not just an educated guess.
Enhancements:
- Added support for the new MacBook Pro series introduced in June 2007.
- Added support for a variety of internal temperature sensors of new hard drive models. This affects old Macintosh computers not supporting the AHCI standard.
- The widget now correctly suppresses the display of electrical sensors for NVIDIA 7600 GT MXM cards in the 24-inch iMac. In that special configuration, the power supply of the GPU cannot be monitored.
- The widget now better keeps track of the users preferences for the two display areas if it is run on a computer with changing sensor configurations.
