Fan control script doesn't work on HP Victus S0046NT and i also can't write over pwm1_enable  #16

Description

@daeSundae

So i finally managed to get the script working but the fan speed is always the same even when i execute the command and the speed doesn't change at all.

dae@fedora:~/Documents/omen-fan$ sudo ./omen-fan.py s 50
  WARNING: BIOS Fan Control Disabled
  Set Fan1: 5000 RPM, Set Fan2: 5000 RPM
dae@fedora:~/Documents/omen-fan$ 

^ There is no change in fan speed

Not only that but fan speed also cannot be monitored in sensors, they always report zero even when i can clearly hear they're working:

hp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
fan1:           0 RPM
fan2:           0 RPM

Another issue i ran into was that i can't write over pwm1_enable in any way. Echo command succeeds but the value of pwm1_enable is still 2 regardless

I will be glad if you could be of some guidance because i really really want to compile android on this pc and the fan speed almost never rises and it is really not possible for me to replace this laptop either.

I'm using an HP Victus s0046nt for reference. It has R7 7840HS, 4060 and so on...
