I just found out about the T43 Fan controller program...Works great on my X41...but not sure how to set the approprate temputures in the "Smart Mode"

Q's...

My current setting:

Level=52 0
Level=55 3
Level=57 5
Level=60 7
Level=70 128

Q1. How many setting does the X41 allow?
Q2. What should be the approrate setting NOT to fry my laptop?
Q3. What temputure is dangerous for the laptop?
Q4. How do I make the fan controlling system to work at startup? (So I don't have to execute it everytime I turn on my laptop).

Thanks in advance...

Best wishes

These are the settings that I use on my X40:

Level=47 0
Level=49 2
Level=51 3
Level=55 4
Level=60 7
Level=70 128

Just having it on with an web page puts my X41 around 50~52...Is the fan suppose to operate at this temperature?

My whole point installing the program was to have a the laptop quite when I'm reading something while the laptop is on...

What's the normal laptop temp. in a mild conditioned room?

I am also running NHC on my X40 with the following CPU voltage settings:

6-->0.700V
8-->0.716V
10->0.748V
12->0.796V
15->0.908V

I ran my X40 last night on battery for over three hours without the fan coming on at all, the room temp was right at 72 degrees. This was strickly web browsing and emailing activities.
