Its got something to do with the Sandbox, however I currently have no idea how to get around it. I'm sure Slice does, but CoolBook Controller works as it should, and keeps my D520 very cool. (Running 45*C right now. Cooler than it runs in Windows 7!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon g Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I sofar have been trying to use Coolbook and so far its not been working well for me. I had it working once. but then I reinstalled my system and have been working with the developer on it and still not functioning. I tried the i8k utility and its been working rightaway. though haven't rebooted yet oranything else. -Gordo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Bronxteck Posted June 7, 2011 Administrators Share Posted June 7, 2011 try a different smbios like macbookair1,1 or macbook2,1 for coolbook. if you look at the info.plist in the app iokitpersonalities i think shows compatible smbios id's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
