Hi,
Is it normal for the temperature of your CPU to increase as time goes on?
I've got an Athlon XP 2100+ and I see that the temp is now at 51C where it
used to be around 42 to 44.
Anyone have any ideas?

You're not alone Lew, this ridiculous flaw in the language has
been brought up several times by several different reputable
programmers at the Standards Committee meetings. As far back as 1986
it was proposed to adopt Standard International Units into the C
Standard but the proposal was quickly quenched by the powers that be
for "historical reasons". Come 2008 and we're still destroying our 3.2
GHz quad-cores all because a handful of old fogies can't cop on to
metric.
The getchar() function will return the temperature at which your processor
begins to burn. Simply compare with tmp, and the pesky units problem will be
solved.

It's just amazing how much nonsense the people in this group will spout.
Can't you all either answer the question seriously or say nothing?

Why not having a joke once in a while? At least these answers are somewhat
topical here (whereas the question clearly as not)

What preprocessor symbol should I test to get correct
internationaliz ation in the following code?
#include <stdio.h>
#ifdef WHAT_SYMBOL_SHO ULD_I_TEST
#define VERB "Sod"
#else
#define VERB "Bugger"
#endif
int main(void) {
puts (VERB " off, Twink.");
return 0;
}

OK, so now I don't know when people are being serious or not. Will the
temperature outside in the room really have an effect? I thought the whole
point of CPU cooling was to maintain a constant temp??
But, why did you choose comp.lang.c to ask this question?
Yeah, sorry, I guess it's a bit off-topic... But I reasoned that there'd
be a strong positive correlation between people that program in C and
people that understand general hardware issues.

And then asked, rhetorically:

And then, like clockwork, Eric Sosman supplied the proof for the point
mooted, thusly:
What preprocessor symbol should I test to get correct
internationali zation in the following code?

No, but there's a strong positive correlation between people
who program in C and people who *think* they understand general
hardware issues. You'll get lots of answers, with little idea
whether they're right. http://www.apa.org/journals/features/psp7761121.pdf

Try alt.comp.hardwa re or comp.sys.ibm.pc .hardware.chips or a similar
group. My server carries 173 groups with "hardware" in their names. You
should be able to find a suitable one. The Web is also useful for such
queries. There must be thousands of computer forums and web sites.

Perhaps also your machine is doing more work (eg. you have a virus),
so maybe look at the CPU load.

I think you will find the manual for that CPU will say it can
work up to 90C. The thermal pad that the retail amd kits come
with seems to dry out and loose thermal contract after years.
I had a 2000+ that got hotter and hotter each summer.
Of course. Haven't you been following the progress of global
warming the past few years? If we (collectively) don't take
appropriate steps in a few years no computers will function.

Hello,
Say I have a server that's saving the CPU temperature to
'temperature.js' once a second. The contents of the file is one single
line:
var temperature = "35.5";
And it changes as the temperature changes.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to read the cpu temperature.. and I've been playing with WMI for
a few days could not get it to work :( if I continue anymore I think I'll be

atm I'm getting no output from this. not sure why... it seems the case from

Hey Everyone~
I'm still a C++ Rookie so please bear with me on this.
I'm doing a temperature conversion program with prototype functions.
Basicly, I was wondering if some of you would take a look at my code
and critique it for me. I'm mostly concerned with how prototype
functions work and if I designed them correctly in my code.
Your participation would be greatly appreciated!

I am absolutely stuck with this one.
I have to create a temperature conversion calculator that rounds the resulting temperature to the nearest whole number & vice versa. The result must be displayed in a window alert. The given formula is (Fahrenheit_temp - 32) * .55
The only tip/clue I have is to use
var tempInCelcius = (document.Converter.fahrenheit.value - 32) * .55;
var tempInFahrenheit = (document.Converter.celcius.value * 1.8) + 32

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
