Tracking how your system uses its resources can help you determine what may be limiting your system's performance. This free utility monitors 29 resources--including CPU, memory, network, and HDD usages--so you can pinpoint where your system needs optimizing.
Moo0 SystemMonitor launches a vertical bar you can drag anywhere on your desktop. You can specify its transparency or modify as a toolbar button through a right-click menu. Resizing the bar by turning the middle scroll button of the mouse made viewing and hiding the bar easier. Its color coding--light green for satisfactory or optimal usage, red for spikes and resource issues--quickly provides a visual flag for areas to investigate.
This little freeware utility performed very well in our tests. The information was brief but useful, and we liked that an error report could be saved as a text file for easier follow-up or tracking. Our favorite feature was the Bottleneck display, which turns red and displays item-hogging resources at the moment problems occurred. We also liked the real-time graphic display of hard-drive input/output performance and network speed.
Power users may prefer a few more bells and whistles, but SystemMonitor's ease of use and helpful data make it an excellent choice to add to your optimizing toolbox.

This is a terrific program. It delivers an assortment of tools to monitor a computer. The system is easy to customize. If you are looking to upgrade your gadgets this is the solution.

"Great tool, but needs heavy improvement"
Version: Moo0 System Monitor 1.54
Pros
All sensors work on my computer with this program, and it's very informative.
Cons
It likes to turn off after being on for about 2 hours, and when I turn it back on, it's in a random language... It's VERY annoying when it does this...
Summary
It's ok, but if I can find an alternative, I'd use it instead, since there's a lot of bugs in this program.
-
"Good, but with some problems."
Version: Moo0 System Monitor 1.54
Pros
Nice, lots of choices of what you want to monitor. Plenty of choice making it look the wa you want it to look, you can hide it when the mouse goes near.
Cons
A few problems-not all sensors work on all machines, maybe not supported by your machine.
Worst issue is a freeze of the program that requires shutdown and restart after the computer has a little sleep following a period of inactivitySummary
Worth the niggles to get to see the information you can get when needed.
