Monitoring Temperature

What Programs could be used to monitor the temperature of my graphic
card?

NVidia Geforce 6600 GT
OS: Windows XP SP2

I have installed ntune, but its not showing any settings, only empty
menus ...

Riva Tuner wasn't helping too :-(

Any ideas?

Give Everest a try. I can see the temps on both of my Radeon X1900XTs with
it.

There is third-party Nvidia temperature monitoring utility called
NvTempLogger you can get at Guru3D.

I'm curious about the problem with nTune though. Someone I know just the
other day was complaining about just the same problem, whereas it works fine
on my motherboard, yet we both have nForce 4 chipsets.

If I rmember correctly a lot of , if not most, 6600/gt's needed the temp
module enabled through a bios flash. I had to do it with my MSI 6600gt, and
6600.
If I can find the how-to link I will post here later.

Here you go, I just fired it up and it works fine.
No pics coz its an old article but you should be able to manage just fine by
reading the guide.
One point I will make..........READ THE GUIDE CAREFULLY!!!!!!
Whe you have read it through once, read it again!!!! Then follow the
instructions carefully.

I only emphasised this, as when I did it, there were lots of horror stories
about ppl stuffing their card coz they tried to hurry through it and get it
back in. Slow and careful will yield the best results. Enjoy and I hope
it works for you.

That's fine, but it only relates to video card temperature. What about
other Ntune Monitor parameters that aren't showing anything, like CPU temp?

www.lavalys.com and give the Everest Ultimate Trial a shot. I've set it
to give me a transparent OSD with temps and fan speeds for CPU, 2 GPU's
and 3 HD temps and PSU fan speed. Then it does all that other stuff too
