Tony,
All MB have one or more termal sensors on them. They are read trough I2C SMB
bus.
If you don't have component "Microsoft System Management Bus Host
Controller" or some third party alternative chanches are most likely that OS
and programs will never be able to read termal sensor states.
Also I do not know any MS driver that read termal sensors on board since
there is no standard and each MB manufacturer can include what ever sensors
they want and like on I2C bus.
Some manufacturers like Intel will suply you with their drivers and programs
for reading temp sensors.
Buf if you do not have third party drivers then this should not be a cause
for your error :-(
Regards,
Slobodan
