I installed ATiTool. Had it working fine for a few day. Temps at idle were fine 49-51 ish. I was basically just using the temp to show in my toolbar. I then went into the fan settings and just once added it to 100% to hear how loud it was then I tried unsuccessfully to get that profile set up where you can make it change as the temp rises. I realized it didnt work or I am not bright enough to get it to work and moved on.
I rebooted my machine and immediately I noticed the sound was off. I could not hear my card at all, then I looked at the temps and within seconds it was rising. Not alarmingly high but high enough to scare me. I did the "show 3d" for a few seconds and I was in the 70's. Now no matter what I do I cant get my fan to work right. I used to be able to hear it now I cannot. When I pulled the side off my machine it looks like its barely moving. I believe when I went into fan settings it said 31% when this issue occured it said 0. No matter how many reboots I did it was on 0. I uninstalled and I thought I got it all off my machine, this did nothing.
I reinstalled everything for my ATI 2600 XT and still no resolve. It is sitting idle at 60. Not high but 10 higher than it was prior to touching a fan setting. Is there something I can do to fix this? I thought sweeping the drivers and catatlyst stuff would help and getting rid of ati tool but it did nothing. Any advice would be grateful. I am not really concerned with my idle temps. I am worried because just messing with the show 3d will get the temps way up and the fan does nothing just did it now and even though it said it was going 81% that is not possible I couldnt even hear it with the cover off. Usually it would be louder than hell it then went down to 31 which I think was default before (good) but the 61%, 81% dont seem right not loud like before
The card is new FYI
Thanks for any and all advice.
