Strengths: It does work...
Weaknesses: It's outdated, weak, has no support for current technology, many other apps are available that are far better, shall I go on?

Strengths: useless
Weaknesses: outdated
Overall Evaluation: not worth the time it took to download, install and uninstall PC World editors/reviewers should be hogtied to a fireant pit for wasting my time. This program might have worked "back-in-the-day"...but today all Intel and AMD compatible mobo's have utilities for monitoring them so as I suspected this was going to be a waste of time, just thought I'd save somebody else the time,,,don't bother with it.

Strengths: Unknown
Weaknesses: The program has been discontinued for five years, and is unsupported. I do not understand why PCWorld is recommending it.
Overall Evaluation: Couldn't get it to recognize my motherboard (it is not in the list, since my PC is old, but newer than the program)

Strengths: It does a great job at monitoring various system components, including temps and fan speeds.
Weaknesses: It is no longer supported and cannot measure temps on some of today's newer boards and CPUs.
Overall Evaluation: This is a great piece of software. Also, don't be worried by bbeth's post below (or above, whatever). Software cannot cause a hardware failure. Her harddrive failed, it happens; don't blame it on good software. I do recommend it if you have an old board, like my ABIT AI7 or something similar with an Intel socket 478 Prescott processor. I used it to help me get a good heatsink and keep the temperature in a safe range that won't harm my $200 chip.

Strengths: If you have been longing to have your hard-drive hosed up, this product is for you!!!
Weaknesses: THINK TWICE BEFORE DOWNLOADING!!! My HP would not reboot immediately after installing this program. I could not find the issue (because I couldn't get past the first boot screen), so it is in the repair shop now. They have said the drive is bad, and they are not able to recover my data. This program has caused me BIG problems.
Overall Evaluation: DOWNLOAD O N L Y if you have first backed up ALL of your data up. Further, I would not recommend this product for novices-Even with the intermediate computer knowledge I have, I am still now unable to resolve the problems Motherboard Monitor has created.
