What I have:
ATI AIW 9600XT
Asus A7N8X-E Deluxe Mobo

Issue:
I see from the download page ATI Tool supports a temperature monitor, but it won't work on my computer. Am I missing something? Instead of the little chart it just shows the general "ATI Tool" logo. Help! Thanks.

as far as I know, the 9600XT does not have a temperature monitoring chip

It most certainly should,thats what stands it apart as an XT.Go to Settings/Temperature Monitoring and activate it. you can also double check your log file under Misc. to see that you do in fact have an LM63 chip

Here's what I get from the log:
2005-07-12 03:18:41 Detected GPU Chip: RV360 (4152), 4 Pipelines, 128 MB

That, and I don't have a temp monitoring option thru ATI Tool, here's what my menu looks like:

Yep stordoff has the right thread. who is the Manufacterer of your 9600XT I do know that some oddball versions dont have the chip and ASUS uses a different one(they never follow reference design) so if its an ASUS it may not show up(I know the Beta 25 Wizzard has added basic monitoring for it)

It's an ATI direct card, no 3rd party vendor. Got it from NewEgg. Unfortunately those pics didn't show the scenario for an All-In-Wonder card. Any ideas?

hmm well I know that most AIW dont support Overdrive so it could just be that your doesnt in fact have the monitoring chip,sad really
