    HWinfo64 or SpeedFan.

    Just know that overriding the system fan table can cause your system to overheat and result in damage to the CPU.

    Many thanks

    I will try this out. The thing is my lappy is a year, and the cpu fan started a week ago to make a very annoying noise like a humming mekanical sound. So i will try to adjust the fan speed to see if it go away

    If it just started a week ago then there is a hardware problem like something stuck in it. You should probably get a new fan ASAP or check your temps at the very least.
