Hi, anyone know of a program that I can control my fan speed with on my Acer Aspire 7745G? It has 8 gb of ram, i5 460m @2.53 ghz with an ati 5650m. Sometimes during high end gaming, the fan speed I find is working fast enough, and the laptop can get really hot (waiting for my notebook cooler to be repaired from the factory)
The following tool should work.
Ralf Neumüller´s Freeware - Acer Aspire One (AA1) Fan Control
hmm, that program is specifically written for an aspire one netbook - it may not work with your laptop.
i run a similar sort of thing on my compaq netbook to turn the fan down - it's so noisy and constantly runs 100% by default and not needed most of the time.
It's been confirmed to work on newer version of the Acer Aspire so it's worth a try. If it doesn't work, try using something like SpeedFan.
