When you see the error dialog, please, don't close that dialog and go to SpeedFan's directory. Upload DEBUG.NFO file here. This way I will be able to see where did SpeedFan stop.

There are other tickets like this one on this system and it looks like that the issue was always specific to the system. Did you have a look at them?

yes. But i dont find a solution...
Something is strange, older versions (< 4.30) are working.
Is it possible to start your software with a command line, like -debug ?

It's possible that my version of windows has a problem (missing dll) but with no log it's difficult to resolve the problem.

SpeedFan already outputs debug messages to that file starting quite early during its execution. It might be something related to WMI. Anyway: almost everything is checked for its presence and therefore my guess is that when such an error arises it is because of something else being broken and not properly or completely installed.

OK. But why did older versions work ?
Do you want a log of an older version of speedfan ?
