Dear Gurus i need some advice from you all regarding Fan Control under Bootcamp.

I've a Mac Pro 4.1 8core and was using under Mac OS and Bootcamp with Win7 Ult 64bit as mainly doing Photo editing using Aperture and Video Transcoding under Windows environment using Tmpgenc Express 4 and Tmpgenc DVD Author which i found Tmpgenc was the overall the best app for Video Transcoding which most Mac application lacks in.

The issue Im facing is that under Bootcamp Fan control are missing in windows environment and Windows are unable to control the fan's speed even the processor are overheating as what i've experience during Transcoding all my Processor core are 90-100% utilize and the temperature shoot to 100' Celsius Im a matter of minutes.:eek:

Some mention to use smcfan and boot into windows without shutting down the machine so that the fan are keep into the speed needed but that's is just not an alternative solution.

Does anyone be able to provide me any better solution on this.:(
