    I have a test box I built running Windows Server 2008 R2, with Hyper V installed. I would like to monitor the temps and get an email alert if they go out of whack. The motherboard is an ASUS. The only ASUS solution is their AWSD, but that requires IIS and I don't want ANYTHING except Hyper V on the host OS. I tried Hmonitor, but it won't run complaining that it can't run on a VM. The author of Hmonitor claims that all gui sessions on a HyperV equipped machines are actually VM sessions.

    Everest no longer exists, replaced by some bloated piece and it's not obvious from their website if it even handles email alerts.

    Anyone know of a good (and cheap) solution to this quest?
