Hey All,
I am a newbie C#, VB and PHP programmer and I know also some stuff in C++.
I started to play around with hardware last week when i had to fix some stuff in my mouse and i kinda liked it so:
I picked a old usb mouse cable and a old motherboard fan, then i stripped the usb cable, conected usb white wire to fan red wire and usb blue wire to black wire and fan is now working (i think the usb has only 5 volts because its a 12volts fan so its working at half of the speed).
There are two wires left, orange and green, i presume they are the wires that used to send data from mouse to the computer, here is a pic of the little stuff i made:

I want to do a software that first detects if it plugged in (is it possible to send a number through the orange or green wire then it reads it? if its the correct number it means the fan is plugged in), then it will increase or decrease the voltage of the blue or white wires! (It can be C# or C++)
Thanks In Advance,
Best Regards,
Mywk
