After further investigation of the above with the helpful hint of checking |
| 9 |
out 'fancontrol' apparently my laptop contains no pwm capable chips. Now |
| 10 |
I suspect this is highly unlikely as the fan speed does indeed change |
| 11 |
under vista. I wonder then if it's just not detecting the chip. Anyone |
| 12 |
know of a utility or way to find my chip? |
