Default MBM Alternatives

Are there any good alternatives to the now defunct Motherboard Monitor? I tried out speedfan and it doesn't do what I want. I need to check out what my 5v line is running at. MBM doesn't have my particular board in it's list, Gigabyte GA-K8VT800M (mATX), so I selected it's ATX counterpart. The case temp fluctuates erracticly and the 5v line reads 4.01v under CPU load I'm trying to narrow down if the PSU really sucks or if MBM is incorrect because I have the wrong board selected. Any help would be really appreciated

Im affraid that ppls got to recognize sooner or later, that MBM is unique and need futher development, probably as open source with contributing ppls to do the job...

I like SpeedFan more, just for taking a look at the temps/voltages - but MBM is simply unreplicable thing

Any volunteers for developing it?

Perhaps if we, the people, start throwing GOS of money at Alex van Kaam, he will re-consider

I don't think my $10.00 a year contribution goes to far
