Fan Control on Native PC's?

Hello all, been running DietPi on a new PC of mine, everything works great except that the PSU and CPU fans are always at 100% irrespective of the temperature. I went through other posts, looking for a fancontrol module but couldn’t find one that works.

I tried running the dietpi-fan_control script as well but to no avail :frowning:

lm-sensors allowed me to read the following sensors from the motherboard:
ISA adapter (with 4 cores, making it the processor)
acpitz-acpi-0 (not sure what this is)
nouveau-pci-0100 (the graphics card)
pch_skylake-virtual-0 ( the platform Controller Hub)

“Next adapter: SMBus I801 adapter at f000 (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (YES/no/selectively): y
Client found at address 0x50
Handled by driver ee1004' (already loaded), chip type ee1004’
(note: this is probably NOT a sensor chip!)”

I got the above message as well while running the sensor detect interface.

So, is there anyway for me to control the local fans on the motherboard, any step I have missed out on?
