<div class="markdown_content"><p>I have been using the TP fan controller on my T60p for years, and I want to install it on the T61 running Win 7 64bit, which I just bought on Ebay. So I downloaded the file on Sourceforge and extracted it. But I can't find a Setup exe or any other way to install it. I was therefore hoping that someone here can tell how to do that. Thanx vey much in advance.</p> <p>Steve<br/> BTW, as</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>It still works on my T440P in 2024. BUT i wonder if possible to start in smart mode 2 instead smart mode 1.. and increase smart mode 1 temp x speed because in 47-50 degrees celcius still 0 fan. so i always change to smart mode 2 all time. and an option to start with windows is also a benefit. can someone do an *.ini file to do that?</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>I wonder what else do you want? It worked before, it still works now (at least on Windows 10 it does). Are you missing some functionality?</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi, this software is still working after 7 years of his last beta.<br/> Did the programmers done something else? </p> <p>I would give some money for a newer application!</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hello, I've been using tpfancontrol for a while now, but since yesterday my bus temperature seems to be stuck at 89C constantly, while my CPU temperature seems to be normal. This causes the smart mode to freak out about it constantly, while my standard BIOS mode responds the way it usually would have. Because of this i had to exclude the bus temperature in the ini file for now as a workaround. What could be the reason for this? Is my hardware broken or is this a bug?</p> <p>My laptop model is a Lenovo Thinkpad E485</p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>I don't understand how it works and if it is compatible with R60 at all. You see there are 5 positions for the fan, I can set it on the first one and it will turn off cooler, and if a set anything else it will just enable it back and speed will be controlled by the system, not the app, so right position won't maximize it. </p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Sorry for the double post, but it seemed more relevant to add to my OP than to edit it: there's something wrong with fan speed readings in the main window. </p> <p>In manual mode, level 7 says the fan (there's only one on my laptop) runs at app. 425 rpm, and it's quite audible. </p> <p>In Smart Mode 1, level 6 is supposed to run the fan at almost 700 rpm, and I can barely hear it? </p> <p>Can someone explain how exactly fan speeds are determined relative to the levels? </p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi everyone, </p> <p>I recently installed TPF on my Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 15 sporting a Pentium P6100 CPU, and it works OK. I have a question, though: TPF comes with built-in levels for fan speeds, from 0 (fan not turning) to 128 (?), where the fan runs full speed and makes my laptop sound like Concorde on take-off. </p> <p>I've already modified the .ini file to set fan level at level 6 for all temperature brackets on Smart Mode 1, because it's more silent that way. </p> <p>At fan level 6, the PC is almost silent, but the temperatures are pretty high (CPU cores at or slightly above 80° C, bus at 85) on Smart Mode 1 (the one I use the most, for the silence it offers). </p> <p>When I click to display the TPF window, I notice the fan speed at 680 rpm or so for level 6, and I wonder how I could set it to, say, 700 rpm, or any higher number that would still let me enjoy the quiet, while cooling my CPU a bit more efficiently. </p> <p>Is there a way to do that, for example by adding something to the .ini file, or are those revolutions built in at hardware level, and impossible to change? </p></div>

<div class="markdown_content"><p>Hi troubadix, I am sorry to contact you this way as I am not able to find your email. The link to the TP Fan Control transparent icon (http://staff-www.uni-marburg.de/~schmitzr/TPFanControl_ti.zip) is not working anymore, so would you be able to upload a new file please?? Thanks a ton!!!!</p></div>
