    Hi -

    Using NHC but it crashes my computer every few hours. Any recommendations for a replacement? Thanks.

    Try RM clock to undervolting your CPU and to monitor CPU temps as iza mentioned. Use PC wizard or MobileMeter or both to show your other temps(HDD,CPU, batterylife, etc).

    There is also Core Temp for CPU temp and HD tune for hard drive health as well as Speedfan and EVEREST Home Edition .

    Try them all out and see which one(s) you like best.

    Use a search engine for the links to the programs

    Are these 64 bit compatible? Ever since I've moved to Vista x64 I've lost the ability to use NHC

    jb,

    NHC at this point doesn't include support for x64 OS.

    Asmodan,

    are you using the patched Dell version of NHC. As the normal one will definitely crash your OS. You can find a link in my signature for the Dell version of NHC.
