Thanks Jon. Gonna play with it right now. Pouring rain here this morning and perfect timing for a new script!

Great job Jon. I only ran into 1 hitch. In the speedfan2.txt and 3 and so on. All the scripts refer to speedfan.ini. I had to change 2.txt to refer to speedfan2.ini, 3.txt to refer to speedfan3.ini and so on.
Other than that it went off without a hitch.
My only issue is with my hardware. I get very minimal info from my machines. Not an issue with your script though.
Keep it up!!!!!

So far so good John - Thanx!
One little thing - can you move the "This device is created automatically so make sure you set this value to a free virtual device!" up in the doc before the Create Event step! I had to go to a backup xml to see that thankfully I didn't have anything on S1 or S2 (at least I think...). They do tell you to read the directions front to back first....

JOM,
Thanks - I had done that but decided to modify the script slightly. I totally forgot to do the find & replace again on the new version and just renamed them
I will wait a bit until anything else comes to light before re-posting.
As for the information - yes it all depends on hardware. I am currently changing over from Motherboard monitor on all my PC's. My lowest spec PC has the most info:
CPU Temp
Case Temp
HD0 Temp
HD1 Temp
CPU fan speed
Case Fan speed
VCOREA
+3.3V
+5V
+12V
-12V
-5V
+5VSB
VBAT
I never saw the 5V standby or the battery voltage using Motherboard monitor!

I get next to no info on 3 machines so far. I agree though. My cheapest machine shows the most. And sadly it's only HD temp and 2 fan speeds. Wonder why I get none of the info you're getting. Find it hard to believe info is this lacking - on all 3 machines!
oh well. I guess you get what you pay for in a computer hehehehe

ok. Just noticed something. All of my devices are created and named as they should be from the ini file. However, all the data for the device are identical for the 3 machines currently monitoring. Gonna dig a little and will report what I do or do not figure out.

Alright. I am a buffoon! hehe
I forgot to change the speedfanlogpath. I stupidly left it at c:\program files\speedfan\ . Instead of the ACTUAL network that, forgetting that the script was actually obtaining the data from other computers across the net.
ie... \\LAPTOP\speedfan
All is well again
