Motherboard Monitor reads temperature and fan RPM data collected by your system's BIOS, displays it in the Windows system tray, and alerts you when there's trouble. You can use this application to manage your resources and alarms by doing things like setting an alarm to go off, or having an email sent to another computer, when your motherboard starts to overheat. You could even have programs start and stop when your CPU reaches predetermined temperatures.

    Thanks to an open API, his hard work can be used by third party programmers. I too ain't fond of his GUI (I used it a few years ago mostly for the systray icons it created), but I use his DLL with Samurize now.

    Shame about development being stopped. But I think it's more in the hands of mobo makers to change their mind than Alex - he can hardly continue working on something that relies on a steady feed of programming informations from the hardware manufacturers.

    Another sad victory for the corporate world :(

    Great program! Unfortunately, some producers refuse to submit important data to the author of the program, e.g. MSI could write how to read CPU temperatures from the core of CPU (not socket temperatures). PC Alert 4 submitted by MSI itself does it. I cannot blame the author, but I blame some mobo producers. I do hope that the author of MBM will change his mind and continue the development of the great proggie...

    Great program, very useful but I personally don't like the GUI.
