So I have speedfan all set up to use on my different fans, but there a still 2 things I'd love to know

1) How do I get it to startup on boot, putting it in the startup section of the windows file doesnt work

2) I've still not yet figured out how to set all the percentages to stay between bootups, it always resets to 27% and i have to manually punch them in every time

1. that's because speedfan requires elevated admin rights to run at boot. 

 

here's how i did it

- setup an elevated shortcut

- test via rebooting

 

2. not sure about this one. i figure setting a custom fan curve would do though
