No hardware monitoring software is showing me my GPU temperature or fa

[vipejc]

I need a lightweight program that shows my GPU temperature and video card's fan speed. The problem is none of these programs show them that are supposed to. Why? I have an ATI X1650 AGP card.

Programs I've tried:

GPU-Z

HWMonitor

SpeedFan

Open Hardware Monitor

MSI Afterburner

I just learned that supposedly the X1650 doesn't support temperature or fan speed monitoring?

The X1650 does support temperature monitoring, however some graphic card manufacturer disabled this feature.

The X1650 uses the RV530, not RV535 chip. I'm assuming that given some manufacturers opted to disable temperature and fan speed monitoring on the RV535, all RV530 cards don't support these features? Is there any program out there that can shut down the computer if the video card fan falls below a certain speed?
