M15x & 6970M / 6990M - What you need to know - upgrading, problems, solutions

Hmm, seems to be identical. Yeah, I can't read the whole stuff either... it's to long. I can see ""ATI RADEON HD 6970M (BLACKOMB XT/P" ... the diode name doesn't even show up cause the text is too long for the window. But I'm sure it the third is the MemIO.
None of the diode worked for you? I have no idea, really. I recommend contacting Mumak, you'll find the link to the discussion thread on the previous page.

Well, you can try a power drain, just in case... it's kind of a panacea, but I don't think it helps in this case.

K did the power drain and it still doesn't work. Does your said ATI GPU [#0] in front of it?

[svl7]

Ok. Yes, sry... "ATI GPU [#0] ATI RADEON HD 6970M (BLACKOMB XT/P" and that's all that's readable in the fan control look-up table menu , too much text, too small window.

Did you still have your old hwinfo32 install? I delete it and just run the beta by itself? Does it matter which ATI driver you using? I'm running on the 11.5 right now.

After discussing with Numak got it to work now. I was setting the wrong value in the lock up table.

I updated the first post some new info about the latest HWinfo32 build and a screenshot.

Mumak found some bugs in build 1245 and has already fixed it and released build 1246. It also improves the GUI of the automatic fan control table. The text should now be completely readable.

More information can be found here.

It work great with the new build now .

Can you just run the fan table from start up?

[dttran83]

You can run hwinfo32 at start up but once it open you need to open the fan control and then it will automaticly control the fan. If you hibernate or sleep the fan still work automatically. You now can minimize it so it basically having a dell 6970m now.

Minimize to tray or taskbar? I'm super anal when it comes to this kind of thing.

On another note, the issue with the bracket sitting directly on resisters, does that apply to the Dell cards as well?
