Default Just installed DuOrb on 8800GT. BIG PROBLEM.

Recently my stock cooling for my GPU broke, so I purchased the DuOrb for my 8800gt. I followed the instructions and everything, and applied AS5 to both the GPU and the DuOrb. I put it in and firedup my PC and I hear a VERY LOUD whistling noise and I get nothing on my screen.

Any ideas what can be wrong?

No problem. The DuOrb is fan-effing-tastic. I love mine.

How can I increase the fan speed on the DuOrb since it doesn't work on RivaTuner?

You don't since it runs two 80mm fans at lower speed full tilt all the time, there is no need to mess around with the fan speed, it's quite yet performs great. I you really want to crank the speed down, it's fan controller time.
