    Hello everyone :)

    It's my first post here and I believe you can help me.

    I was trying to manipulate the fan speed in my Acer 6935g, because no other program like SpeedFan could handle this specific hardware. And that's what I've found out by using the Read & Write Utility v1.4.9:

    [​IMG]

    The first value with the grey background - is the value of fan speed (0-5)
    The second one - with the black border - is the value of actual fan speed

    The problem is: when I'm trying to turn off the fan completely (I'm changing the gray one to 'A0' or similar) I can't turn on the fan again. I just need to wait a couple of minutes, or restart computer to have that fan spinning again. The same is speeding up (I'm changing the gray one to '7' or higher).
    When I change that gray value to 0-5 it works, but one-two seconds later the system is spinning up/spinning down the fan itself.

    The question is: How can I manipulate that value so the fan wouldn't control itself again one-two second later?
