I can confirm this as well. I have a P7P55D EVO and I have the same behavior. Please let me know if I can post any readings to help resolve this.

Confirmed, CPU fan cannot be controlled on P7P55D-E, runs at 100%.
SMART requires running with admin rights.

CPU fan of Asus P7P55D-E Deluxe still can't be controlled by Speedfan 4.41.11
Changing PWM Output to DC Output cause of constant 100% CPU fan speed.
Chassis Fans are ok - under Speedfan's control.

Usually on Asus motherboards it is only possible to control a PWM(4pin)-fan on the CPU_FAN header. Do you guys all use a 3pin-fan on the CPU_FAN header?

By the way, the HDD data (temp and SMART) can only be accessed if Speedfan is running with admin privileges.

I don't use 3-pin fan on the 4-pin CPU-FAN header. Fan is 4-pin, PWM. All connected rightly and Asus BIOS Q-Fan controls all fan speeds properly.

CPU fan speed control Still doesn't work with SpeedFan 4.41 beta 15.
No fan control at all

Is this fixed in the final version? My guess it isn't since Alfredo didn't seem to care enough to even acknowledge this problem.

No, it is not fixed. Unfortunately.

You should disable QFan or SmartFan in BIOS (set speed to maximum or fixed ratio), set all "speeds" to "manual control" in Advanced tab.
And - disable or remove Asus Q-Fan.

Fan speeds still don't change in 4.42b2.

Why aren't you even acknowledging this Alfredo? I realize SF is a freebie but a non-working freebie is of no use to anyone. Instead of adding new stuff, fix the things that are broken. Older versions of SF change speeds just fine. Obviously you broke it in the newer versions. Guess I'll be on 4.40 for a very long time.

@streetwolf
I fully agree. Sorry for the delay. I had to do so many things together, but now I want to get this fixed.
I finally found a report from an Asus P7P55D-E PRO. It has the W83667HG-B. I worked very hard on this chip during the previous months. This means that, even if I didn't ack this issue, I was actua working on it. It was very difficult to get the correct documentation as there were several mistakes in it. I tested support for the W83667HG-B myself. If it is not working on your Asus then something else might need to be changed to make it work. The first step is to enter CONFIGURE / ADVANCED and set PWM MODE to MANUAL PWM CONTROL. Make sure that on the main window you can actually change the correct percentages as your system might have more than 6 of them and the useful one might be hidden.
