    ThermoFan is a great little tool.

    Hey I just installed the newer OSD drivers found on the AW website.

    After the installation I noticed I had a program under my start menu called ThermoFan.

    Start Orb> All Programs> Keyboard Manger> Thermo Fan.

    Neat little tool to see system temps and Fan speeds.

    Now If you read through the help, it does give teh ability to control fan speeds, butI haven't been able to manipulate anything yet.

    If everyone else knows about this program then disregard this post..


    Ouch using this program, and testing with Orthos it reads 96 on the CPU. But only 66 on the system temp. I think 96 is WAY TOO HOT.
