Description

It's my first attempt at a skin package. I expect I'll and more meters and also make them a bit smaller. You'll need the latest version of Rainmeter and I'm using OpenHardwareMonitor to get the temperatures.

1. Get OpenHardwareMonitor and run it - [link]

2. Run the Analogue Meters_0.1 RMSkin (should install the skin with fonts and the OHM plugin)

3. You need to configure the Temperature meters to read your specific hardware, right click on the skin and "Edit skin" (opens the config in notepad), in the [Variables] section edit the values as shown in "ExampleEdit.jpg" (Documents\Rainmeter\Skins\AnalogueMeters\ExampleEdit.jpg). Set the min and max temps for the analogue meter and also the Label (the text at the bottom), should look something like this:


[Variables]
HARDWARE=Intel Core i7 920
TYPE=Temperatures
SENSOR=CPU Core #1
MinimumTemp=20
MaximumTemp=70
LABEL=Core i7 920


Save it in notepad and refresh the skin. (be sure to copy the text exactly, capitals, spaces, ect or it wont read the sensor)


HDD Skins

You'll need to edit the variable to your drive letter, for example for drive H,

HDD1=H:
