Its a Maxtor 200GB and it has been replaced becuase last one broke down. But i am not getting involved with all that crap. Whats a bad temp for a P4 3.20Gz Processor just for i know

A bad temp would be one that is so high as to cause system instability/random reboots, etc.

Your temps seem quite acceptable to me.

36 is very good temp, anything under 50 is what you want. In 50 is not harmful but you could make it lower, 60-70 is bad. Around 85 i tihnk is the highest you can go before it will overheat. Doon't let it get that high.

Your temps are great.

The fan speed will go up if the teperature goes up, not just cause u open something demanding.

If the temp goes above vertain levels, the motherboard gives a higher voltage to the fn, making it speed up.

Have you checked the "automatically varieated" box for your CPU fan?
If you don't tell Speedfan to change the speed ( and set the parameters for the change) then it WON'T.

Well speed is 1722RPM and Temp at 43'C

It was at 50'C and speed was the same

What motherboard do you have.

SpeedFan worked flawlessly on my Asus board, but is useless with my ABIT, so I stopped using it.

Strange, I can't get Speedfan to work at all on my Asus board.

Edit: with respect to fan control that is.
