    dled i8kfangui to control my hd temps on an e1505 laptop, but its only displayin cpu temps. The hd doesn't get burning hot or anything, just kind of annoying having a warm laptop b/c the fans off. do i have to dl a plugin or somethin to control hd temps automatically?

    You should be able to change what temps fangui displays; look in the prefs.

    I don't know that you can really "control" hard drive temperatures. There isn't a fan over it or anything, at least on the e1505-which only has one fan.

    If the temperatures are really bothering you, get a cooling mat/pad.
