This widget just don't work I don't see how they can have 1/4 million downloads maybe the 5 times I did the down load are in there. I can't get it to work. Can't find the executable what a crock, and can't find the log file. total do do.
I don't offer support on the message board. However, the widget WOULD work if you bothered to read the directions. For instance, you need to install Speedfan (hence the name, Speedfan Temperature Monitor). You might have noticed this if you had read the big warning that runs the first time you launch the widget ("THIS WIDGET REQUIRES SPEEDFAN TO WORK CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD IF YOU DONT ALREADY HAVE IT", or something like that). You also might have noticed that I offer …free technical support. I know I never received any e-mails from you. I'm also not sure what you mean by a log file, since my widget does not require any log files to function.More
Following up on my first review, I was able to get the widget to work however, though I was using the most current version of Yahoo Widgets, I had to completely uninstall and reinstall the Yahoo Widgets program. This fixed my problem and now the speedfan widget works fine.
Well I have to admit it totally took me forever to configure Speedfan correctly, but that's not this widget's fault. Once Speedfan was set up correctly, I downloaded this widget and immediately, without any problems whatsoever, it discovered all speedfan sensors. Selecting and renaming the right ones was a breeze. The graphs are great and the whole thing is very informative. Would be cool now if the design was more like the standard yahoo widgets or if I could customize it, guess I'll go into the source.
Thank you!
