Hey I'm trying to find a program that will keep a "dashboard" type display on my desktop that shows real time system info. I see people have them at times in their thread with desktop pics. Any ideas where I can get one? Preferably in black to match my theme

It's not as easy for a laptop which im assuming you use, more often then not the sensors are not included to cut costs. You need to find out what sensors you have first.

Ugh lol. I just want somthing to show cpu/ram/hd/network. Something that can maybe go near the clock on the taskbar.

There are several Yahoo Widgets that could do the trick, or if you install Object Desktop by Stardock you can get something like that.
