Default FIC Spectra - How to set up some features?

Hello,

Here is my configuration:
FIC Spectra
MB Gigabyte GA-MA69GM-S2H
Proc: AMD LE-1100 EE
512MB RAM
250GB 2"5 Samsung
DVD-R Toshiba
TV-Card Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-150 MCE

Some specific settings:

1. LCD - Fic spectra Futaba LCD driver by Andrea Tincani

2. Buttons play,rew,pause, stop etc. - MP Setup->Remote->General HID->Use general HID Device = true
-------

FIC Spectra has some special features:
a) CPU cooler is fanless but the power supply has two small fans that kick in when the CPU gets too hot.
b) IR Transmitter allowing to control your other IR devices.

Can anyone help me how to set this two features please?

a) Do I need some driver for this power supply? How power supply knows CPU temperature?
b) How can I set MP to use FIC IR Transmitter?
I have tried IR Server, but I have problem with configuration because IR is not detected. In Device Manager is IR device detected as eHome.

thanx for help
Roman

Nice case! I was wondering where did you get it? I was looking on the FIC website but i could only find the intel based barebones (and not even by navigating on the site itself but using an older link i found on google).
