The Temp Colors Themselves BEFORE A Problem

Post by JackInCT »

Question: on my Intel Quad Core the 4 temp colors when they are in normal ranges are red, darkest blue, light green, & light blue; the green and light blue ones blend into too much with the medium gray backgground of my sys tray and they are somewhat hard to read quickly, and I'm none to crazy about the red either (and I have no idea where these color "commands" are generated, i. e., is that by my various Windows (Under Properties/Appearance, etc.) XP OS menu choices, etc.,. I sure would like to have the ability to make them ALL one nice dark color, and no red ones until there's a problem. Is that possible?

You can change the settings using Options --> System Tray Setup option and set the colors to whatever looks best for you.

Coolest, thank you for a reply and your response was perfect. I made this topic knowing that your time is limited, and really vowing to use it only as a last restort. So before this post, I had already decided that I just definitely had to resort to the forum ONLY if I couldn't find any way via the menus, and so I looked high and low for some way to do that MULTIPLE TIMES and obviously it was right under my nose all along. I cannot offer any explanation to you as a person how I could do such a thing and come up empty handed, i. e., I have absolutely no idea how I overlooked it. I don't take such a mistake lightly on my part, if for no other reason that resorting to the forum is also a waste of time on my part. Believe you me, I will continue to strive to do better--yes I do consider this goof as personally unacceptable. Thanks again.
