No offense but do you just want to state your observation that "T61 doesn't work with TPFanControl"
Or you are actually asking for help, on how to get T61 to work with TPFanControl?
If it's the later, I suggest you start reading this:
http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
And then search the forum with those keywords: TPFancontrol Vista (or other keywords that might be related to your case)
The symptom you described looks like you're trying to run TPFanControl under Vista. If that's the case, the suggested search above should show some information. e.g. have to start TPFanControl using administrator privilege.
Mentioning T61 (the model) and the software in question (TPFanContorl ) helps a bit. However it would be much more better if you mention your version of OS.

@namezero: I guess you're not in the habit of reading people's "signatures", eh? 'Cause meditate2001's 'sig' clearly states WinXP . . . Sometimes we rely on what's in our 'sig' to get the message across.namezero wrote:Mentioning T61 (the model) and the software in question (TPFanContorl ) helps a bit.

@meditate2001: I have no experience with the T6x family. Another approach might be to try running the "fan acpi" in NHC. Have you tried that? [Sorry, just searched and found that you actually have . . . ] So I don't know what else to try.
