Hi fellas, I recently successfully overclocked my a Celeron 600 to 900, pretty easy actually huh, and now I just want to make sure I cool it properly, I have read everyone talking about temps and stuff of their CPU's. I want to check the temp of my CPU, in winME if possible, but what program do you use? Do you use a program?!

Thanks guys!

Oh yeah I have Motherboard Monitor but I cant really figure out how it works and the readings are always the same regardless of what I do so I dont think this proggie is a good one for measuring temps, OK thanks again fellas.

The BH6 boards did not have a CPU thermister, if I remember correctly. I believe it only has one motherboard probe, so that won't help you a lot. You really need CPU temp too. My Abit SE6 has two thermisters, one of which sits right under the CPU socket and a second over by the southbridge. A little program called Hardware Doctor (to read temps and voltages in Windows) came with my board too. Handy way to check to see how effective your cooling tweaks are. I would of been lost without it.
