http://monsternet.game-point.net/goodies/rain.html May I assume you game a bit? whether or not you do, you are right that you do not need to run RAIN with XP. . . ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter Strisik To: pctechtalk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, July 06, 2002 3:29 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- CPU coolers (RAIN) Hi all, I ran a program called "Rain" on my previous laptop that had Win98SE. It did make a difference in how often the fan ran. It supposedly cut power to the CPU during idle time. I've heard that this function is built into WinXP and that running Rain would be redundant. Anyone know if this is a fact or not? If Rain does help, it will keep the fan quieter and increase battery life some.
