In simplest terms, you can't do it with that WMI Class. Even though it has a method called SetSpeed, according to MSDN it's not implemented, meaning even if you use SetSpeed it won't do anything.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I hereby grant any person the right to use any code I post, that I am the original author of, on the autoitscript.com forums, unless I've specifically stated otherwise in the code or the thread post. If you do use my code all I ask, as a courtesy, is to make note of where you got it from.

Look at SpeedFan. It's not with AutoIt, but I doubt you can control fan speed with just AutoIt.

Speedfan is mentioned, guess you could automate that.

I believe they have a library/dll you could use, but I would assume you'd need to be proficient in understanding api calls.

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
