Here’s a nice little utility that can run standalone or with an installer.  Core Temp monitors your CPU and warns you if you are reaching a critical temperature.   Tips for keeping your laptop cool-

  • Keep all of the vents clear.
  • Never sit it in your lap, on a recliner,sofa arm or bed without a hardened surface underneath
  • Sit your laptop on a firm surface
  • Never place your laptop on a magazine, newspaper or on loose papers
  • Keep a TV tray or book handy to place your laptop on
When installing do not install the search enhancement.
