changing video card fan speed

Postby desperado » Sat May 27, 2006 6:56 am

My x850xt video cards fan speed is set extremely low from the factory, I tried to remedy this with atitool but for some reason the second i turn ati tool on a high pitched whining comes from the computer that makes me want to claw my ears out and any animal within close proximity to the room its in go nuts.

I need to change fan speed but ati tool wont work, got any suggestions?

I had checked that, It happens the second ati tool is turned on. I just read some reviews of the product and they said they had the same thing happen with ati tool. Is there any similar programs to ati tool out there?

Mine is sapphire and on newegg every single post either talked about the fan being set infatismly low or complained about the ati tool problem or told you to get ati tool.
