Like TAT or CoreTemp? I can't get any of those to work with my Ultimate x64 Vista.
Anyone got some suggestions?
Best Regards

DON'T DO THAT!
All that will do is make you more vulnerable and yeah, i know, you're real clever and nothing will happen to you and when it does you'll blame MS for making such a :banana::banana::banana::banana:ty OS even though it was through your ignorance it was made possible.
First thing, make a standard account, second thing, use only that account.
Everything that is possible with a disabled UAC is possible without it and the admin password, works just fine.

Oh, and wait a month or so until the utils have been upgraded to deal with the WDDM driver model.

i know somebody very closely related who works at microsoft; I was talking to him today. he said that UAC is merely just to put the responsibility into the END-USER, not microsoft. just to say "the user clicked yes, its now his responsibility for what happens".
just right click coretemp and say "run as administrator."
it works for meeeeeeee

Thanks for the replys.
I'm getting an error with CoreTemp
Some drivers are not loading it says and shows "100?" degress temp on both cores. Asus probe shows temp at around 25c.

So... you're saying the user SHOULDN'T be responsible for what he does with his computer?
Of course he should, that is the point of UAC and the point of all security software, the user decides.
Personally i don't like the implementation, it should be a requested password instead and it should never be allowed to go below ten letters, at least two of them numbers and passwords like iam2leet4u should not only be rejected but they should send a torture team to your house if you tried it.
