Does the 5th address register that gets used actually maps properly to the 5th fan channel?

I have no idea. All this is pretty new to me and I was just playing arround yesterday. I'm pretty knowledgeable in tech but I have no development background and doesn't know any code language except some basic VBA after fiddling in excel macro. I'm an accountant by training.

I guess I would need to compile from my fork in order to test but I have no idea how to do this and I ended up here after installing Fan Control which is a little utility that uses LHM in the background.

@sp991 I know, I'm FanControl developper.

Well yes you would need to compile and test your changes. You can't just throw code at the wall and hope for it to stick.

After playing around in MS Visual Studio far too long, I found out that the control field in LHM only shows something when Fan Control is controlling them or maybe another 3rd party application but if they are managed by BIOS or motherboard software, the field is blank instead of showing the actual % of load.
So the 2 line of code I changed are working perfectly and I put the LHM library in the Fan Control folder and managed to control the Fan#5

I checked it87 driver and they state that this is a custom design that supports up to 6, so please change 5 to 6 for both and I'll merge :)

It's done, thank you so much!
