Monitoring System Temperature

Is there a good software program that I can download to monitor temperature inside the computer? Does the motherboard do that anyway? How would I know if my motherboard supports Monitoring? I dont know what brand motherboard is inside my computer.

 

If you enter your bios it will show you if you have hardware monitoring.

There are loads of software that monitor your Temp. Fuzzy logic make a few.. cool cpu is another... many motherboard driver cd's come with monitoring programs on them .just search out your cd from the drawer and have a look

 

Some Bios monitor system temperature. If you hit delete at start up before the windows screen this will often open the bios. Then you can look for the tab that says system health. It will often tell you what your system temp is. Be careful in the bios though. Don't change anything you don't know about.
