Hi,

I’ve just got my “new” L.I.S. 2 indicator* display & fan controller from around 2004.

The display came boxed and “as new”, but unfortunately the software-CD got lost over the time.
Thanks to evasive I've found some generic drivers,
but if you’ve got the latest retail USB-drivers and software for this display, please send it to me!

See here some pictures of the “unpacking” ...

The display appears to be new/unused (even the protective foil is still in place) and does not show any installation marks.
I intend to install the display & fan controller in my PC #3 (see sig), because it is in period and comes with a matching silver Lian Li case.

… to be continued 😀

* L.I.S. = Lost In Space (IMHO a bit strange name for a display)

I think Version 2.2.2.6 is the latest.

You already found that in the other thread as I see. Oh well, I'll leave it anyway in case the other source expires.

This might be the driver though. Please report back if it works.

That's going to look great in that case once it's all done

It's alive!!! and raving 😉

If anyone can submit me the right software-code for this tool "mutimedia control center" for 'DEGREE CELSIUS' (U+2103???) it would be great.
many thanks, ildonaldo

Matches the 2003 case perfectly and it even manages the three fans for this case (dependent of the MoBo-Sensors).
