Dell Vostro fan control mystery

When I first installed Arch on my Vostro laptop back in October '12, I had to run the i8kmon and i8kutils to get the fan control to work. Without it, the fan was blasting at full speed all the time, no matter what the CPU temperature was.
However, this week I started noticing odd behavior in my fan control, in that the i8kmon service would start, but fail silently and the fan would remain off, no matter the temperature (not good). Here's the mystery: I disabled the i8kmon.service and since then my fan control is now BETTER then ever! The fan speed gradually increases and decreases based on system load, it's perfect.
Does anyone know what may be going on here? Perhaps the 3.8 kernel now supports this fan without special drivers? Of course, it could have been from earlier than 3.8, but I always had i8kmon running...?

Use the special key combo - It works on most Dell systems
Shift + FN + 1 5 3 2 4  from a VGA tty console - three lights will flash and one remain flashing. This enables a special Thermal management settings screen. Press FN + R to access it, you can change the fan speed, adjust the throttling and so on.
I need to set the fan speeds to 6000 and 5000 RPM, after which i8kfan 2 2 will reach max speed. Don't use this mode from within X, the system suspends everything else when in that mode and it goes into a VGA console, so things can screw up with the Wifi and the video adapter sometimes.

  • Dell Vostro 3560 CPU Fan Control Tips

    I'm in the process of configuring my brand new Vostro 3560 and one of the things I noticed was that the CPU fan was blasting full speed all the time even when the machine was idle. After some researching I came up with the following solution using i8kmon and I'll post it here for others:
    Disclaimer 1: In this configuration, you will be setting up thresholds on what fan speeds are used at a specific temperature. If you use this config, this assumes that your machine is a) reporting the correct temperature and b) the fan speed setting works for your specs. Always monitor your laptop and change the configuration if your laptop feels too hot.
    Disclaimer 2: I've only had this laptop for a couple of days now, so no long-term stress testing has been performed in this configuration.
    This is a link that helped me a lot. It's Ubuntu specific, so be aware of the differences: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s … ion/204193.
    Please post any thoughts or feel free to correct me where applicable:
    Install the following packages:
    i8kmon
    i8kutils
    Create/modify the following config files:
    /etc/modules-load.d/i8k.conf
    # Load Dell Fan Speed Control (i8k) at boot
    i8k
    /etc/conf.d/i8kmon. Please note that there are conflicting values reported when you Google this. In my case, the following worked:
    # Arguments to be passed to the i8kmon daemon
    I8KMON_ARGS="--nouserconfig --daemon"
    /etc/rc.conf. Add i8kmon to your DAEMONS:
    DAEMONS=(hwclock ... i8kmon ...)
    /etc/i8kutils/i8kmon.conf
    This is the file where you set the temperature thresholds and fan speeds in the "set config" values. Your specific laptop configuration could be different, so Google around.

    edit: changed temperature thresholds - I think the key temps are: 55: turn on fan at level 1 until cooled down to 45. Above 60, start blasting the fan at full speed

    If you're using systemd, to run i8kmon you should edit i8kmon.service file
    /usr/lib/systemd/system/i8kmon.service
    from
    [Service]
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/i8kmon -nd
    to
    [Service]
    ExecStart=/usr/bin/i8kmon --daemon --nouserconfig

    This:
    i8kmon --daemon
    Keeps running, but the fan is on full blow no matter what.
    I have added this service to systemd and it gets loaded okay,
    but it runs the i8kmon --daemon, which does nothing.
    Any hints?
    Thanks

    I have a dell vostro 1710, no fan running at all!
    I have opened it, and saw it spinning for a while on notebook power on, so it looks like it works
    Do not remember if this is happening a long time ago, or maybe after a Syu... but now temp is on 62 doing stuff, 74 watching a video..... it will be more than 80 in summer? lol
    Will install and configure i8kutils I guess....

  • Dell Vostro and iTunes [+media control buttons]

    Hi everybody!
    Well, I have a Dell Vostro 1310 laptop.
    It has media control buttons, as you can see in these images:
    http://img134.imageshack.us/my.php?image=moto0388ha4.jpg
    http://img98.imageshack.us/my.php?image=moto0389iu3.jpg
    http://img91.imageshack.us/my.php?image=moto0390ep2.jpg
    The fact is: the control buttons work properly IF, and only IF, iTunes is the active window.
    If it is not, they simply don't work.
    Is there anything I can do to solve it?

    Hi espectral,
    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    I'm fairly sure you'd need dedicated software to interface with the keyboard and iTunes, most often 'media' keys only work by coicidence. Therefore, you'd need software from Dell (or other 3rd party software to link iTunes to the keyboard.)
    I don't think Dell specifically support Apple Software, but I know some other brands like Logitech do.
    Hope that helps.
    Regards,
    Peter.

  • Troubles with dell vostro 1400

    recently buy a dell vostro 1400 with vista, first install ubuntu and then with internet install arch, but something strange happen with arch, the processor fan work too much, ok, runung kde s normal, but with an base install(no X,kde) the fan work at full, use cpudyn/cpufreq to control the speed but happen, with ubuntu not troubles, and even with vista the fan doesn work to much, only when see movies, but with arch even with init3 the fan enouth for me, meybe do something wrong or miss ??
    currently my installation use cpudyn.

    Is your CPU overheating? I'd install lm_sensors and see how high the temperature is going. You should do this for all three (Ubuntu, Arch, Vista) if you can and compare what the temperatures are. My guess is that the arch install just has a more cautious approach to cooling. If the temperature is staying constantly above 65C then that would be the problem. Try scaling your CPU down further using cpufreq. Check that it's working by doing as root:
    cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq
    This will tell you what your current CPU speed is. If it never goes below maximum then that is the problem.

  • MTRR allocation problem on Dell Vostro

    Hello good people,
    I am having MTRR messages from kernel and a warning that graphics performance may suffer. I know from the sparse mtrr documentation around that I can set them up as I want and everything should work  but after trying several changes, the only thing I have managed to do it get a horribly slow laptop.
    I am running 64bit Arch on Dell Vostro 3550. I have 6GB ram and a hybrid video card setup with an Intel card and an ATI one. I am using the proprietary Catalyst driver and I also have the intel driver installed.
    Here we go...
    Kernel message.
    $dmesg | grep -i mtrr
    [ 0.000000] MTRR default type: uncachable
    [ 0.000000] MTRR fixed ranges enabled:
    [ 0.000000] MTRR variable ranges enabled:
    [ 17.262434] mtrr: type mismatch for d0000000,10000000 old: write-back new: write-combining
    [ 17.262437] [drm] MTRR allocation failed. Graphics performance may suffer.
    I noticed in /proc/config.gz that I don't have MTRR cleanup enabled by default so I tried adding enable_mtrr_cleanup to the boot line but I still don't get a good mtrr.
    $zgrep MTRR /proc/config.gz
    CONFIG_MTRR=y
    CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER=y
    CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER_ENABLE_DEFAULT=0
    CONFIG_MTRR_SANITIZER_SPARE_REG_NR_DEFAULT=1
    Now here is the mtrr I would like to repair. Notice that the memory range in reg 0 is 8192MB. Why? Reg 3 should be the range for the intel card since that's the address I get from lspci -vv as you will see. Similary, reg 4 is mapping for the ATI radeon card. According to what I have read, I want to have these as write-combining. The other ranges I have no idea why they are there which complicates my attempts at fixing the mtrr.
    $cat /proc/mtrr
    reg00: base=0x000000000 ( 0MB), size= 8192MB, count=1: write-back

    Hello,
    i get the same messages without any problems for my intel card.
    You can read more about it in this thread:
    http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-85 … ec66f93bf2
    There are a fair amount of people who have posted their /proc/mtrr there, you can compare yours to them.
    In the end they come to the conclusion, that uncachable entries are not a problem, for the most systems.
    However uncachable regions of 1024MB seem to be too large.
    On my mtrr the biggest uncachable entry is 64MB.
    So you might get improvement from solving this.

  • Fan control in notebooks

    Hi all,
    I am using Arch Linux since a few months, right after purchasing my new laptop, a Dell Precision M3800. Anyway I am a linux user since many years. I like very much the control that arch give to the user in terms of configuration possibility. My question is relate to fan control in notebooks. Even though I noticed this issue in my laptop now, I think similar observation holds also for other notebooks and linux distros. For fan control I use the fancontrol utility. Once properly configured, there is a min temperature value below which the cpu fan is off (default is 20 °C, I increased up to 45 °C) and a max temperature value (default is 55 °C and I placed 65 °C) above which the fan is running at full speed. The reason for the temperature limit changes is to emulate windows behavior in terms of noise and thermal handling. With a room temperature in the order of 25 °C, I get right after login a cpu temperature of about 35 °C. Then the temperature increases even in idle conditions up to the limit of 45 °C and then it is stabilized by the cpu fan. Chaning the temperature between 35 °C and 45 °C simply changes the time interval I have to wait until the cpu fan switches on and cpu temperature stabilizes with low load. The point is the the stable thermal situation produces a continuous switching of the fan state, let's say the fan is on for a few seconds every minute. The reason is that the fan switches off right after the cpu temperature falls below the value for which it turns on. Wouldn't be better to define two different temperatures for switching on and off? Let's say, fan on when temperature reaches 45 °C and off when it falls below 40 °C. Is there a way to do that with fancontrol or same other tool?
    Thank you in advance.
    Bye,
    Luca

    OP, what you're describing is called (at least in HVAC circles) hysteresis.  You may be able to find some fan control scripts that support it (googling fan control + hysteresis), or just write one yourself.  You can also control this behavior to some extent by adjusting fancontrol's polling behavior (the "INTERVAL" setting), but that has risks. 
    I think implementing hysteresis is not a particularly useful endeavor because PC temperatures can change 30 degrees or more in a few seconds when under load, which is completely unlike, say, a home thermostat where temp changes are much more gradual over time.  Realistically, you should expect to always be running at least the CPU fan at some speed, and set your "turn off" temperature for it to room temperature.  You can set different temperature set points for different fans, so you can have the CPU fan turning off at a lower temp, but have other fans off until the temp gets much higher.

  • DELL VOSTRO 3750 with Windows 7 64 bit BOSD

    Hello:
    I have been dealing with BSOD for the last 8 months, but my hardware appears fine.  I thought the problem was related to some wrong DELL drivers for my DELL VOSTRO 3750 with Windows 7 64 bit.  Tried for a few months to solve the problem with DELL
    customer service.  My warranty ran out May 31, 2014.  I had DELL come and replace the network card and the fan because I was having overheating issues and some of the indications from the bluescreen messages seemed to point at the network card.  A
    month after warranty ran out, I was still getting BSOD so I tried uninstalling and reinstalling original drivers from DELL.  Worked fine for a couple of months. Then the BSODs came back again everyday or 2.
    Is there anyone in the Microsoft world that can help?

  • Dell Vostro 1310, Close lid, Freeze

    I just installed arch on my old Dell Vostro 1310.
    It is a very fresh and simple install. The only packages I have installed are wget and sshd.
    I.e I have no acpid running.
    I have set HandleLidClose to ignore in logind.conf, but when I close the lid something happens and the laptop freezes.
    ssh access also dies, and fans stop, so it is not just the screen.
    What could be the issue here?
    [EDIT]
    Just noticed a strange workaround. If I have an active SSH connection to the machine, I can close the lid without problems.
    If I close the ssh connection while the lid is closed, it is also still fine. But if I close it without any SSH connection, it freezes.

    I have c600, and I used to have some kind of the same problem with it. I had acpi, and it had difficulties to suspend to RAM and to HDD... there were always problems doing this kind of things. But i reconpiled mu kernel (2.6.10 rc1) with apm support, and dissabled acpi. Now all of this (standby, suspend, etc) is working just fine. When I close the lid, tc PC get asleep.. somekind of suspend to RAM, ot god-knows-where. When I open it, it wakes up... And all of the function buttons are working too... maybe just apm is "native" for this kind of systems.
    good luck

  • 17" unibody: temperature/fan control buggy. again every book affected?!

    i've heard that the new 17" books are also affected by the buggy smc fan control just like the 15" late 08 MBP! anyone can confirm this? so has anyone tested his new MBP (especially the 2.93GHz version) just like described in this thread?:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1823105&start=0&tstart=15
    1. put your book to sleep and wake it up
    2. start two instances of 'yes > /dev/null' in the terminal
    3. check the temps and the fan speed with the istat pro widget
    4. the fans won't speed up (speed stucks @ 2k rpm) and the CPU temp will reach >105°C / 221°F

    I have seen laptops with intel cpus from every single brand have problems with temp reporting and then fan control on the book. HP, Dell, Lenovo, Apple, its everywhere! millions of models! If you panic everytime you have to adjust the fans yourself, you'll be in a panic for the rest of your laptop-using life.
    Forget it and up the fans with SMC fan control!
    and again, read the linked thread.
    if you reset the smc, the fan control is ok. if you heat up the cpu the second time or you put your MBP to sleep and wake it up the fan control is strangely faulty! the intel cpu isn't reporting the temperature wrong!
    and a very important thing i want to add: as soon as the cpu reaches ~105°C it underclocks itself! this state lasts up to 5mins until the fans slowly kick in!

    Hi rhaughan,
    I see that you have concerns about your operating temperature of your computer while using resource-heavy applications such as gaming applications. I have an article that will address some of the concerns you have mentioned:
    Mac notebooks: Operating temperature - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-is/HT201640
    While there are third-party utilities that measure the temperature of a notebook computer, it is important to understand that these utilities are not measuring the external case temperature. The actual case temperature is much lower. Never use third-party applications to diagnose possible hardware issues—instead, contact Apple or go to an Apple Retail Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider.
    You should also see this article for even further information about your fans:

  • User-devel​oped Fan Control for the S10(e)

    Hello and welcome.
    When you've searched the internet and found this thread, it's possible that you are an owner of a Lenovo Ideapad S10 or S10e which has a little problem with the behaviour and/or the noise of the fan. In this post you will get all the informations you need to handle this problem for yourself. It should also be the same on every S9/S9e.
    Just a few comments before we begin:
    This is not an official support or solution by Lenovo.
    We are just normal users as you are, but we get rid of the fan and wanted to find a way to handle it. So if you want to try anything of the methods described here you have to know that you'll do all this only at your own risk. We are not responsible for any damages of your device. You should only use these methods if you know what you are doing.
    Please note that this thread is only for discussing, improving, trouble shooting and perhaps extending the fan control utilities. Any general complaints about the fan problem itself should be placed in the original thread right here: http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board.i​d=IdeaPad_Netbook&thread.id=795. It already has 80+ pages (the link goes to the first page) and it is better to exclude all the fan control stuff because there it's very difficult to keep an overview.
    Here you may post all of your questions, ideas/brainstorming, concerns, thanks and so on and you are really invited to participate and be an active member. 
    In this first part of this post I'm going to summarize all information about using a fan control utility. For any newbie it will be enough to read this post to get all necessary information. The second part does the same for developement of fan control utilities as we still have no known or working fan control utility for Linux, Mac OS X and other OSs I've forgotten - for now.
    For getting started you need a S10 or S10e with an up-to-date BIOS. For the S10 it's the 90 67, for the S10e the 66.
    The battery issue
    Under very specific circumstances - that we haven't figured out yet - it might happen that your Lenovo S9/10(e) no longer detects the battery while using S10FanControl or S10Fan. It might occur after 2 minutes, it might occur after 2 months, it might never occur. It does not occur using Notebook Hardware Control.
    It can be solved by removing the battery, waiting 10 seconds and put it back in. Then the battery is re-initialized and the detection works again.
    S10FanControl - Windows
    The first utility is S10FanControl created by user dresslerc. The current version is 1.0.0.1, available here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/yd5xmnrnijf/S10FanCt​rl1.0.0.1.zip. After you've downloaded it you just have to extract it and start the .EXE in the "Release" folder. Here are the notes and the description dresslerc posted right here:
    Everyone,
    I've uploaded a version which everyone can use to test with.  Remember this is still a TEST version although I think it works for the most part.  It should work both on the S10/S10e.
    Please install the .NET Framework 2.0 or later first.
    Then click here to download the exe:  http://www.mediafire.com/?jlg2enkjdxn
    Once downloaded, extract the files and hit hte S10FanCtrl.Exe.  Once this program launches you should be able to control the fan.  Keep in mind that if you lower the fan speed then it'll take upto 30 seconds before the S10 registers the change, so be patient.
    I've only tested this on the latest BIOS 59.  I am sure it will work on the 57 as well but the individual speeds might not work properly on that version.  Please try it out and report back.
    The only issue that I heard so far is that occasionally the fan will kick in regardless if in Manual/Smart Mode.  Also the temp it shows may not be accurate.  If you find any other issues please let me know what they are so I can attempt to fix them.
    Once we have all the kinks worked out then I will release the source. 
    Heres a quick Video:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PKl70ZgmFg 
    REMEMBER: USE PROGRAM AT YOUR OWN RISK!!! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES THIS PROGRAM MIGHT CAUSE.
    Application Use:
    BIOS Controlled - Fan is controlled by the BIOS
    Smart Mode - Fan is controlled based on the conifguration in the options.  You can set the threshold here at what temp you want the fan to kick in...
    Manual - Fan is controlled manually by the slider.
    If you want to have the program startup automatically, then place a shortcut of the app in the PROGRAM FILES -> STARTUP folder.  Then you may want to go to the options and make the application minimize at startup.
    Edit:
    It seems there are some issues with the app and the S10e or previous BIOS versions.  Will post a fix asap.
    The source code for S10FanControl is available here: http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=7a3fb99d33817c0​8c2b435915e8821d7e04e75f6e8ebb871, written in Visual Basic .NET 2008.
    S10Fan - Windows
    The second utility is a tool written by user slash:
    Hi guys,
    Well it looks like Lenovo dropped this matter after all. Anyway, I have here another fan controller to add to the bunch. I have been using it for some time now without any problems. It is for both S10 and S10e.
    What the program does is basically the same as others. The S10's fan speed is controlled according to the ACPI thermal zone temperature. By over writing the values which resides at offset 50h of the EC register at an appropriate timing, the ACPI thermal zone temperature is over ridden. The program is written in C and uses WinIo created by Sysinternals. The GUI version is available now.
    It should be noted that the fan speed temperature thresholds differs with BIOS version. For 14CN67WW and 14CW90WW  the fan changes speed at temperatures 60c, 65c, 70c, and 80c. Furthermore, the BIOS will automatically shutdown the S10 if the temperature reaches 90c.
    The program has a fail safe mechanism that automatically disables itself if the actual ACPI thermal zone temperature goes above 85c. This allows the BIOS to regain control and the fan will work as intended by Lenovo. If the temperature drops below 85c the program will take over control again.
    To run the program, you will need administrative privileges.
    Known working BIOS versions:  14cn58ww,  14cn60ww, 14cn67ww, 14cn90ww
    The program will work with any BIOS version as long as the BIOS uses the 50h EC register readouts to control the fan.

    Higher priorities for EC commands.
    Usage: The program will run in the system tray. Double click or right click and use the menu to open the program. To determine the BIOS temperature thresholds, use the 'Setup' button. To run at boot time, place a short cut in the startup folder.

    Notebook Hardware Control - Windows
    The third utility is a profile for Notebook Hardware Control. I've adapted it from a profile for the Lenovo N500 which I've found here: http://nhc.yourcopy.de/overview/. With the manual for creating the profiles that can be found here: http://www.notebook-treff.de/board/database/hilfsp​rogramme-f%C3%BCr-nhc/92-how-to-create-an-acpi-fil​... I was able to change the ACPI commands to work on the S10(e).
    Installation and setup is divided in two steps. The program Notebook Hardware Control (NHC) is available at http://www.pbus-167.com/. Install the program, but do not start it for now. Then you need my NHCConfig utility, available here: http://forum.eeepcnews.de/download/file.php?id=147​6. It detects your model number and BIOS-version via WMI and writes a proper S10(e) profile to the NHC acpi directory. The GUI is German if you have a German Windows and English if not. Additional languages can be added.
    After you've extracted the ZIP-file you have to start the nhcc.exe (requires .NET Framework 2.0). At first a message appears that you use the program at your own risk. Then you can choose if you want to apply your own settings (experts) or if you just want the program to run with my defaults (newbies). In the settings window you can see your system details on the left, you can set up your thresholds in the middle and you can set the fan speed you want on the right. Then click on execute. 
    Now start NHC. Go to the "Settings" tab and click on "Show all NHC options and settings". Then a few more tabs appear. Go to the "ACPI" tab and check if the "ACPI Control System" is running (if everything works, the message "ACPI Control System running" will appear, otherwise it says "ACPI control system is not yet configured for this system"). Now click on "Show ACPI Control System details".
    Here you can change the temperature values the fan control depends on (the settings from NHCC are the default values). On the bottom of the window you can see the "Current CPU temperature". That is the value you have to deal with. In general it has a value of around 60°C. In the middle you can see four user editable temperature values. You can leave the values as they are if everything works. The on/off values are responsible for the temperatures at which the fan starts running and stops again after cooling the device. The level values are responsible for the fan speed, for example you can set the off_level higher to let the fan run all the time at the lowest level, if the values do not fit for your device or whatever.
    You can switch between NHC and BIOS control by disabling or enabling the "ACPI Control System" or by closing NHC.
    Q:
    A:
    With every utility it is possible that it takes some time until you see an effect after you've started the program. Any failure of the programs should be no big problem because the only thing that should happen is that the BIOS controls the fan. Another issue that might occur due to the way the fan is controlled is that the fan may start running for a very short time and it looks like the fan control has lost control. The fan should stop immediately or at least after a few seconds.
    Keep in mind that running the S10(e) with a fan control means that the S10(e) has to deal with higher temperatures. That could mean that the device will not last for 10 years but only 9 years (who uses a netbook so long...?). In every case you need a tool for monitoring your cpu temperature. We know that especially Core Temp 0.99.5 and Real Temp 3.00 do a very good job. That is important because the temperature values you need to set up the fan control are different from the values reported by the cpu sensor, they are between 15°C and 20°C higher. A normal temperature reported by the monitoring should be around 40°C, with the NHC default values the fan starts running at 52°C and stops at 38°C.

    A:
    END using fan control
    BEGINNING developing fan control
    Controlling the S10(e)'s fan is a litte bit difficult because it looks like there is no way to control it directly. But it is possible to manipulate the temperature the BIOS fan control depends on. As long as the built-in fan control thinks that the cpu is cool enough the fan stays off. And that is exactly the point where we can attack.
    The fan control depends on a field called RTMP in the memory of the embedded controller. It can be accessed via "_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.ERAM", the offset of RTMP is 0x50 (hex) or 80 (dec). It is a direct I/O read/write. The complete NHC command for reading the value is: ACPI.FIELD.ReadByOffset("_SB.PCI0.LPCB.EC0.ERAM", ref value, 0x50, 8) with "value" as the variable which gets the value.
    What program logic do you need? You need a timer or something else that conducts an always-refresh cycle. It sounds very easy: You read the value, manipulate it and write it back. And it is that easy, you just have to keep some things in mind.
    This refresh has to be done very often. The procedure must be very thin and quick. Also the bus that is used to communicate with the EC is a problem, but since the S10e BIOS 66 it became a minor problem for me because it looks like the built-in fan control now depends on some kind of average value over the last few seconds and it doesn't really matter if one write-cycle is failing.
    The read-event must be placed before the write-event. Otherwise you just read your manipulated value. The field is filled by the system regularly, so you just have to test if the read_value is different from the written_value, then you know that the field was filled with a "fresh" value. Like "if read_temperatue <> written_temperature then real_cpu_temperature = read_temperature else do nothing".
    About the values you have to write back... you will have to test and play a bit. My experience is that you can select three fan levels, starting at 59°, 62° and 70° - at least with the NHC profile and my S10e it's like that. It's some trial 'n' error. My fan stays off at < 59°, but you should select a very low value for fan_off like 30°. In my opinion it switches off much faster the lower the written value is. But it's just a feeling, I haven't measured it.

    Perhaps some users from countries with other languages than German and English can add tags for "fan", "control" and "noise".

    Great opening post Carsten!
    The latest bios:
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/documen​t.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-71252 (BIOS 66)
    The FSB can be reduced from 133MHz to 100MHz using SetFSB, this also reduces the heat:
    http://www13.plala.or.jp/setfsb/
    clockgen = SLG8SP513V
    If you add a shortcut to the startup folder the program will start at startup. Under properties you can change the target to:
    "C:\Program Files\SetFSB\setfsb.exe" -s100 -b1 -cg[SLG8SP513V] -w20
    So it starts with a FSB of 100Mhz, in the background, with the right clock generator, after 20 seconds.

  • My Dell Vostro (running XP SP3) neither recognizes my iPad 2 nor my iPhone 4 correctly! I followed the troubleshooting guides and installed the latest iTunes. Both devices are recognised by my desktop PC running Vista using the exact same cable etc.

    Hello all,
    my Laptop (Dell Vostro - running XP SP3) neither recognizes my iPad 2 nor my iPhone 4! 
    Both devices are working correctly with my desktop PC running Vista with the same USB cable!  
    I followed trouble shooting guides, checked that the drivers are present, installed, removed and reinstalled the latest iTunes (in the correct order together with the other Apple software components) etc. but nothing works! The interesting thing is that when I plug the iPad or the iPhone in the laptop's usb-port for a second Windows correctly shows the devices either as iPad or iPhone in the "Device Manager" with an exclamation point !!!    But then after a split second Windows allways switches the devices to Digital Camera and the correct iPad or iPhone disappears !!!     =>    That is why I guess that this is a driver problem!
    Does anybody have any idea what else I can try?
    Is there a manual way to install the drivers for the iPad 2 or iPhone 4?
    Many thanks for your ideas and suggestions
    Edgar

    Yes I know that (I always google first and ask later ). Too bad I find this out when it was too late. I was already on 4.3.

    Hi,
    In this case, you can try repairing windows image using DISM command.

  • Does using a program like fan control damage my mbp?

    I heard good things about this program so I downloaded it and it cools off the machine wonderfully. However, I was wondering if it caused damage to the machine as the fans are running at about 3 times what they ran before? Does anyone know anything about this? Thanks.

    I would hazard a guess that if it did have anything to do with the failure of the hardware in any way, the manufacturer would void your warranty. Any repair needed would be chargeable.
    Mac OS X, Boot Camp and the EFI firmware all have system settings created by the manufacturer. Using a program which alters their recommended settings or changes the behaviour of hardware devices within the machine, goes against the terms of the warranty.
    I would ask Apple about Fan Control and get them to confirm that any damage which may be caused (or may not be caused) by a third party program willl not void your warranty.
    In some respects, it's like overclocking a PC. Whilst it may be more beneficial to the system and provide better performance, the maufacturer of the computer can not be expected to repair something which has been damaged by the end user 'tweaking' settings to get better performance.
    In the case of Fan Control, I have not used it so can not refer to the licence terms, the liability of possible damage done to the machine by using this program will either be at the end users own responsibility or the manufacturer of the software. This should be checked prior to installing and using the program.
    I would suggest any program which alters the running of the machine will invalidate your warranty in the event of hardware failure.
