About VIATray
==============
I don't like the VIA Hardware Monitor on my task bar, so
I wrote VIATray. It moves the VIA Hardware Monitor from the
task bar into the system tray and adds a few options.

Installing VIATray
==================
Copy the file "VIATray.exe" to your "C:\VIAhm" folder or
where you have VIA's HWM installed, create a shortcut
for "VIATray.exe" and move it to your desktop.

Starting the HWM
================
When you want to run VIA's HWM, launch the VIATray shortcut instead.
When  you start VIATray, it will load then hide VIA's HWM from the
task bar and place it in the system tray.

If you want the Hardware Monitor to load each time you start
Windows, cut & paste (or copy) the VIATray shortcut into the
"StartUp" folder. (e.g. C:\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\StartUp)

Tray Icon Mouse Commands
========================
Right click - Options Menu.
Left click - Toggles HWM view.

Shut Down on Alarms
===================
When enabled and the matching HWM alarm is triggered you
will have 5 seconds to abort before the PC is shutoff.
If you abort the shutdown, VIA HWM and VIATray will be
closed, and must be restarted to use. The file
"ViaTray_ShutDown.txt" records the date/time, alarm that
was triggered and the HWM data. This file is saved in the
same folder where VIATray.exe is run from and can be opened
by selecting "View ShutDown Log" from the ShutDown menu.

Force Shut Down
===============
When enabled and the above shut down is triggered Windows will
be forced to shut down. All unsaved data in running programs
may be lost. With this option off, Windows may not shut off and
your PC may continue to run.

Fast Shut Down
==============
Bypass the 5 second shut down warning and shutdown ASAP!

Tool-Tips/Data Recorder
=======================
Select a tool tip (Temps or Fan speeds) for the HWM item you want
to display as tool tip text when you place your mouse pointer
over the tray icon.

When a tool tip is selected, the Data Recorder is enabled and the
tray icon shows the current CPU temperature in Celsius degrees.
Tray icon temperature display range is 27C to 64C.
Greater then 64C = a match on fire.
Less then 27C = a snow flake.

The Data Recorder stores VIA's HWM data to the file,
"ViaTray_Rec.txt", this file is saved in the same folder
where VIATray.exe is run from. Select "Data Recorder"
from the menu to set up the time interval in minutes.

Select "View Record Data" from the menu to open in notepad.
Data record with the delay set to 3 minutes shown below.
12/03/01 12:27a> CPU=100 fan=5160, Sys=78 fan=0, Vcore=1.88, 3.3v=3.49, 5v=5.08, 12v=12.07
12/03/01 12:30a> CPU=123 fan=5119, Sys=80 fan=0, Vcore=1.88, 3.3v=3.49, 5v=5.08, 12v=12.07
12/03/01 12:33a> CPU=95 fan=5080, Sys=80 fan=0, Vcore=1.89, 3.3v=3.49, 5v=5.23, 12v=11.95

Swap Sys & CPU
==============
Display System Temp as tray icon and swap CPU for System temperature data.
(If VIA's HWM CPU and System temps are reversed for your motherboard
enable this option or see NOTES on how to fix this.)

Recorder Reminder
=================
When enabled will display a warning message if the the recorder
is on when ViaTray is started. If you always have the recorder
running and do not want this reminder, uncheck the "Recorder Reminder".

When Data Recorder is enabled, data is only saved when VIA HWM is minimized.

v1.17

NOTES:
======
This is an email I received from a user about the CPU and System temps not
displaying correctly on his motherboard using the VIA HWM, and how he fixed it.

I snooped around the files that VIA HWM uses and found the following
definitions in hmhard.dat

CPU_TEMP_PIN     = 2
SYSTEM_TEMP_PIN  = 1

which at least in my system are opposite of what they should be. By setting
them to 1, 2; the display was flipped to the correct (rational!) values.
