your script works ok on my W2K box :-). It makes me curious if I can get also the temperatures into Python script for further processing as easy as the setting of the checkbox is done? (I have not much experience with this kind of programming yet) May I ask how did you get the "TJvXPCheckbox" and the other values necessary to access the program GUI ? (as I can see, there is no source code of SpeedFan available) ?
