Thanks for the help, Adrien - and apologies for the delay in replying. I have had a quick look at Speed Fan and will give it a try sometime. Imay also contact you off list later if I decide to take advantage of your offerof the other program you mention. I now remember that the software I used to have on an old desk top was SISoft Sandra - it gave a great deal of information about the system including temperatures. Actually this present laptop does not seem to overheat unless I use it for very long periods, but I have a new one on order which has a much more powerful processor. I am wondering whether overheating may be more of a problem for the latter and monitoring the temperature may become more important.

I use speed fan 4.08 to monitor the temperature. I think later versions are a bit more complex and take a bit of configuring. I also use hddtemperature-1.1 and if you would like this I could send you a copy zipped up.I was speaking to an engineer at the company who I send my laptop to as itis covered by an extended warrantee and 54 dg c is ok for a pc, but when the outer case gets very warm I do start to worry a bit.
