Hi there.

I have been using Macs Fan Control on bootcamp and I had not updated it for a while ( the version that would let you know about a available update for 10 seconds)

I decided to update last month. And now whenever I try to open the program it gives me a blue screen of death. I have reinstalled Bootcamp with no luck. Cannot open Fan Control at all.

My specs are:

2009 Mac Book Pro
2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo
4 GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Nvidia Geforce 9600M GT
Nvidia Geforce 9400m ( Bootcamp only uses the 9600 )

Windows XP Home Edition (32 bit)


Also is there somewhere I can download old versions?

MFC doesn't have a kernel driver and it unlikely can cause a crash. Are you sure about that?

When does the crash happen?

As soon as I click on MFC. It also happens when it tries to open itself after installation.

When did it started to happen like that? Can you remember previous version number?

As soon as I updated MFC.
Sorry I cant remember version number.

I think it was from early 2013

Is there somewhere I can download previous versions?

Just to clarify I have installed the latest version and still have the problem.

jch
can you please try version 1.2 beta?

I just tried the beta and it went to a blue screen the second it tried to open after installation.
Sorry about the hassle.

Am I able to download old version?

Yes, but I need to know your previous version.

I think it was early 2013.
When I opened mfc, it went to a 10 second window telling me a update was available (had to wait for countdown before clicking continue. Cant find or remember the exact version number sorry.
Is there some other way I can identify what version it was?

Try this

Perhaps I might try 1.1.11.
Also, I greatly appreciate the time and help.

Also if you would like I can download other version to see exactly what version starts causing my blue screen.

1.1.11 for Windows

It started working, but it changed my resolution when I opened it. (looked 16 bit also)

So I adjusted my resolution and restarted.

Now every time I boot into windows it goes to the blue screen before the welcome chime ends.

Trying to delete it though OSX .

Maybe I should try 1.1.7

Update:
I have removed MFC via safe mode in xp. Computer is starting up normally again.
Hopefully I'll have better luck with 1.1.7

I have a funny feeling that I need to download 1.1.0

Do you have any idea what might be causing the blue screens?
