TPFanControl on R52 (Vista)

[amwus]

Hello all ! I'm new here, i come from belgium. Please forgive me for my bad english, i don't practice so much !

So, here is my problem. I recently tried to install windows vista on my Thinkpad R52 (1846-3WG). So, everything is well, but tpfancontrol does not seems to work... it tells me that "winio.sys" is missing in the application folder. But actually, this file is in the right folder. So is it normal ? How could i use this marvellous soft in windows vista ? This is a problem for me...

Other problem, or perhaps is it normal... in xp, i can run the computer on battery for about 3h15... in vista, only 2h25-30... is it normal ? How could i long the battery life ?

Thank you very much for you answers !

Best regards,

amwus

TPfancontrol is not compatible with Vista_ support seems to be discontinued.

Eyh, are you even watching the tpfancontrol-thread?

The developer has helped me a lot with getting it to work right with vista..
The easiest now is to run V0.18 in application mode (no service).
Make a shortcut and right-click, select run as administrator.

ho... that's a problem... and is there another program that can make the same ?
