    i've been using smc fan control but i have to restart to mac first. i want to just be able to control the fan speed from windows directly without starting to mac first

    i could just leave fan speed at 1800 but i game and apple smc only revs up fans when temps hit 80c+ (throttling level)


    LUBBOS will not work since this is a MACBOOK (not macbook pro D :)
    speedfan is not working

    macbook 5.1
    2ghz, 8gb, 9400m 256mb


    any help would be appreciated :D

    smc fan control should work

    and I thought lubbos was windows only

    and AFAIK lubbos works on the mb, its just a matter of ignoring the warnings
