Hi Folks,
I am trying to find out why I can not get a temperature reading on my processor and/or the 4 cores. It doesn't matter what program I use...Core Temp, HWiNFO, OverDrive... they all show 0 degrees. Any help greatly appreciated.

Disable core unlocker.
If the core unlocker is turned on, it turns off the core temp sensor on certain AMD chips.

Wow! stormy13 and p5bdkw both hit it on the nail head. First, yes ET6 did show CPU temp., then I disabled core unlocker and lo and behold all of those programs I mentioned are showing CPU temps.
Thanks much.

Well you learn something new everyday. As one who only uses Intel I could never understand why some AMD chips didn't provide temp reading. Now I know :)

Thanks +1
