![]() ![]() A separate utility is included to make it easy to correlate the sensor ID number in the skin with the related sensor functionality in HWInfo. Plugin is 3rd-party, but seems well supported. Haven't tested it in a few months, so these might be corrected.ģ) HWInfo : Very robust information about CPU and GPU temperatures, fan speeds and loads. However, there are some anecdotal reports that it has issues with Windows 8.1, including on my computer. Perfectly fine if you are mostly interested in CPU and case temperatures.Ģ) SpeedFan : Very robust information about CPU and GPU temperatures, fan speeds and loads. Doesn't monitor fan speeds or GPU information. So far today 1-30-2021 this Skin works for mi, is low demanding on my system Speedfan plugin all good, I wish an illustro type skin with this, my GPU doesnt show a change in Temperature with this skin THANK you. I personally would be tempted to stay away from it.ġ) CoreTemp : Quite good, built-in Rainmeter plugin, but a little limited. I don't remember specifics, but I think there have been some stability issues with the OpenHardwareMonitor plugin for Rainmeter, and I'm not sure it is still supported by its author. If you don't use OpenHardwareMonitor for other purposes, I really suggest looking at either CoreTemp or SpeedFan, both of which can measure CPU temperature and have Rainmeter plugins that come with Rainmeter, or HWInfo, which while also 3rd-party, is the one that I use and am really happy with. You need to double check the name of the sensor you are referencing from OpenHardwareMonitor. I'm not familiar with it.Īssuming you have that covered, and it looks like you might, then I'm not sure. If not, you will need to find it somewhere. And as I mentioned, I had completed deleted everything off my system and reinstalled both rainmeter and gadgets from scratch and the issue still exists, and also none of the variables changed between the two CPUs, and the older CPU was working fine with temps, dropped in new CPU and temps dont show. ![]() I assume the plugin came with the skin, as it is not a standard Rainmeter plugin but a 3rd-party one. It should be put in:Ĭ:\Users\ YourName\AppData\Roaming\Rainmeter\PluginsĪnd must be the same 32bit or 64bit architecture as the Rainmeter version you are running. You not only need to have OpenHardwareMonitor running on your system, but you must have OpenHardwareMonitorPlugin.dll, the plugin for Rainmeter that supports OpenHardwareMonitor. Plugin=Plugins\OpenHardwareMonitorPlugin.dll Here is the script that I have for CPU.ini: I get the requested sensor does not exist error. I have open hard ware monitor open and running. ini file into a reply here.Fairly new with rain meter, love it so far, I am using an older skin everything works great except for the cpu temp which only shows 0 C. At a minimum, paste the entire code from the skin's. If you don't have that, just zip up the entire skin's folder and attach the. SpeedFan) to feed the sensor value to Rainmeter. ![]() Then we might be able to give you some advice on how to find and configure the sensor identifiers for YOUR hardware, and get you going.īest thing would be a link to where you got the skin. Hi I am new to Rainmeter and I wish to create my own skin showing info such as CPU load, CPU temperature, CPU fan speed, GPU load, GPU temperature, GPU fan speed. We need to see what monitoring program / plugin it is using, and what values it is looking for from the hardware. To even hope to help you, we first need the skin you are talking about. This will vary considerably depending both on the program you are using, and for certain, your hardware. Generally this will be by setting some option on the measure that points to some kind of "sensor identifier" provided by the program. Third, you have to set up the Measures in the Rainmeter skin to tell the plugin to interact with the correct sensors as monitored by the monitoring program. SpeedFan and CoreTemp plugins for Rainmeter come with Rainmeter, HWiNFO needs to be downloaded to use. Second, you have to have the plugin for Rainmeter that matches the monitoring program. Rainmeter can't read sensors, it just has plugins that can "talk" to the programs that do. In any case you have to be running the program. That might be SpeedFan, or CoreTemp, or HWiNFO. The way that hardware sensor monitoring works with Rainmeter requires three steps.įirst, you have to be running the program that the skin is designed around. or if it's some setting in the bios that I am supposed to turn on.Īnyone have any thoughts on how I can figure this out? Check the documentation of the skin or right click the skin, select edit skin and check the plugin name. Now, I don't know enough to know if it's the skin. The skins will need something else to get the temperatures, normally Speedfan, possibly Core Temp or in rare cases HWInfo.
