How to set laptop fans in XP?

[mrapoc]

I want my laptop fans to be able to go on 100% (or something) whilst folding as the fans only cut in at about 50c or something silly. Its a Dell Inspiron 1501. Latest bios.

Speedfan doesnt seem to detect fans/more than 3 temps

Cheers

In the BIOS then maybe a setting for the fans to run when on AC power, turn it on.

Notebook Hardware Control might be able to let you do it.

Well the temps arent too bad considering...I have a cooler on the bottom and fans on full really pushes the temps down. When the fans kick in it drops down to like 40c and id only be folding at home on my desk while im present really

What kind of laptop is it? I8KFanGUI works well for Dells. My laptop goes to 90 when I fold and still doesn't cut out xD.

90 degrees.. Ever thought about shutting it, spinning it over and shoving on some bacon?

Did think about it , It peaks to about 110 with the SMP client.
