    i have been trying to install and set up speed fan for almost 2 hours now and i cant figure out how to do it. i have a dell 1505 with the core duo 1.83 ghz and i was wondering if anyone knew the speeds i should set my fan at for certain temperatures, im a little new to laptops so any help would be great. i would just like to keep it running a little cooler. i have nhc which underclocks it to 1ghz and that lowered the temp to about 49. i decided to design my own cooler by raising the back with matchbooks and that put it down to 46 but i would like it to run around 35 if possible. any help would be appreciated.
    thanks
