There is no such thing as "completely standard hardware" in the PC world: all PC's are assembled using a huge number of possible components. Your example is spectacularly wrong: there are Intel and AMD versions of the "basic" processor, each of which has a large number of different processors in it's range. And to read the processor temperature is different in each family!

So the OS has a API which works out which processor it is, and reads the temperature appropriately - but it looks like a simple WMI request to your application (most of the time, sometimes the motherboard design makes it unavailable) because the OS "hides" the hardware from your application. That is part of what drivers are for: to interface between the hardware (or a virtualisation of the hardware - don't ask, just don't) and the OS so that the hardware maker can communicate in a way that the OS can understand, and interpret for the applications.

It's a bit like your car: it has a fuel gauge, but you have no idea how that gauge actually works or how many litres of fuel it is showing - and you don't need to know as long as you can glance at the dashboard and see you have 1/3 tank left.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...
