    Here's the direct link for the F5rl series, in the support download section. You'll have to search for NB probe there:

    i know this..only what i want to tell is that ASUS suports only Vista...so you can´t find NB probe for XP..only for Vista (in my case F5RL)...so i have asked if somebody don´t know where i could find it for XP

    Since all NBP does is monitor system temp and fan speed (the latter doesn't mean much), you can get the same temperature monitor capability out of MobileMeter, which will work in xp fine and give you some other nice monitor options as well. You can find this through Google.

    Else, have you tried the Vista version of NBProbe? It might work fine, since Asus may not have written a completely new utility just for Vista and just ported the XP version.
