Hi All,
Just wondering if anyone came across any tool like smcFancontrol or Fancontrol but for Windows XP. I use Fancontrol when Im booted in OSX and love how my MBP isn't hot the reading I get are anywhere from 100F-max 130F, but when booted in XP it's like very hot feels way more than the max I get in OSX. If I didn't have to boot into XP for school i'd just stay in OSX but as things go I have to boot XP.

Anyway any solutions would be great, oh by the way I tried speedfan for XP but that doesn't seem to work like the apps for OSX.

If you set your fan speed with smcFanControl under OS X and then reboot into Windows (without shutting the machine down or putting it to sleep) the fan setting sticks - this is what I do for my excursions into Windows-land via BootCamp when Parallels just won't do.

Hi haven't able to login lately school work overload. But thanks for the reply, I have fancontrol running but that doesn't deem to help while booted in XP. I just tried the suggestion by mduell on this page and the seems to help, so far no heat issues to report. Here's the page link http://forums.macnn.com/104/alternat...p/#post3223674 . Hope that helps others that have to boot into XP, although it's not OSX at least our hands wont be frying as much.

Use this:

Input Remapper

It allows you to set fan speeds, remaps keyboard, auto keyboard and monitor backlight and shows temp information.

Best app I have downloaded for my MBP.
