Hi,
First let me start on a positive note by saying that I think ATITOOL is great. A godsend, in fact.
I have a Radeon X850PRO (PCI-Express) sitting inside a Biostar IDEQ330P SFF box. OS is windows XP x64 and CPU Athon 4800+ x2. Heat dissipation under load appears to be a problem and I'm pretty sure the ATI drivers aren't controlling the fan entirely correctly as the GPU temp rises. Anyhow that's somewhat by-the-by.
I have noticed that under this configuration ATITool (v0.24(c)) will control the GPU fan as directed under the 'Fan Control' dropdown BUT ONLY WHEN THE ATITOOL APPLICATION is NOT THE ACTIVE APPLICATION. Whenever the ATITool window has input focus, the fan control settings seem to have no effect (well, worse, actually, as the speed of the fan seems to drop off to some low value and the GPU temperature rapidly rises as a result).
Is this a bug? Seems like a bug to me.
Regards
