    Hey there

    I have just bought a Fujitsu laptop (NH532, 3610qm, 640M LE) and am looking for fan control software. I have tried Speedfan och TPfancontrol, but apparently they are not capable of detecting the rpm sensors. Anyone have any tips on an up to date fan control program?

    Cheers!

    Nobody has attempted fan control on a fujitsu before. But try HWinfo and Afterburner, no guarantee that it will work though.

    To access the fan control (if available) in HWinfo, the process is similar to this: *GUIDE* -Unofficial AW fan control- - Alienware Arena Forums

    Afterburner supports a couple of laptops, the ones I know is the MSi series and the HP Dv6 15" (SB) version, other than those two models I don't know

    Try either and tell us how it goes!

    Hello again

    No luck with either program. In Afterburner the fan slider wont move. In HWinfo, and following that guide on Alien Arena, I see no fan icon where i is supposed to be. This is with the latest version.

    The quest continues!

    If both controls doesn't work, then you can ask somebody from Tech Inferno or Bios-Mods to have a modded BIOS with fan control section.

    Sorry to hear that both methods doesn't work

    The 640M (LE) can be OC'd by a BIOS mod from what I've heard (VAI0 models)
