    hey guys,

    I'm trying to get I8Kfangui to work with my xps1530, I'm not too sure if there are any compatibility issues with the two mentioned.

    Ive tried all modes [manual,auto and forced] - i've tried manual, turn fans off but the fans still go AWOL when my gpu temp hits around 69, might also be my cpu hitting 45ish although i'm pretty sure its my gpu that causes the fans to go off. I've also tried automatic temp control [and yes I did change all settings in options inc the offset.]

    So, any ideas how I can control my fans, any other apps I could use etc? I want my fans to go off if my gpu is at 75 not 68/69 as they are so loud and it happens far too frequently

    thanks!
