    I am experiencing strange problem! after a while of being happy dual-booter, I am now having heat problems with W7- temps stay at 2k rpm if I don't do smcfancontrol restart trick, which is annoying! and ideas how to control fan under W7?

    Looks like lubbbo`s program is the only working project, but I don't understand how to use it!

    did you try this?

    http://sourceforge.net/projects/lubbofancontrol/

    I'm unable to test since I don't run Windows on my MBP.

    I suppose 9400 M G has BIOS?
    I have 9100 M G what I did was I burn and undervolted the Values into my BIOS.
    I am sure Macbooks have firmware somewhere to do that as well.
    For Processor you can use RMClock.
