Thanks a lot Eric. I've installed Hardware Monitor, but i can't seem  
to get it to work with my display. I've installed the proper drivers,  
but still no luck :( The display I am using is one of our MX6 units.  
This unit is directly pluging in as a usb unit, the conversion from  
rs232 to usb is done on the board.

If you have any suggestions, please let me know!

Much regards,
