    Hello, I'm looking for a good equivalent to smcfancontrol when working in windows xp under bootcamp.

    I know that if I boot to xp without powering down, fans will remain in same rpm than in os x.. and also found this one.. input remapper: http://www.olofsson.info/

    But.. just wondering what are other people using.. and if somebody happens to know any better ones?

    Cheers

    I use windows XP and was looking for a temperature detecting software and asked on these forums for any recommendations and many people recommended SpeedFan. I tried it and it works perfect for what I use it for. It is a simple program which takes few resources. You can download it here:

    I use speedfan on my desktop to monitor temperatures. I've never tried it in Boot Camp though.
