Default Control Laptop Fan Speed? (No SpeedFan)

Well about last month one of my laptops, the Dell 5150 died. Got too hot and fan just wasnt at full speed for some odd reasons. I have gotten it to boot back up and even once to the point where I got on windows but it just died again. Now its all hope is lost. I tried freezing the CPU and MOBO, with putting in freezer, then spray shit load of canned air and it boots up sometimes but still shuts off. Replaced the thermal glue, cleaned fan, heatsink and what not and still nothing.

SO rite now I am using the Hp Pavillion DV1411SE for what I used the Dell for. Its a pretty good damn laptop and no problems with heating expect sometimes it gets a little WARM. Now what I wanna do is just take precaution and install a fan control program. Make the fan run at 25-55% fan speed at all times. I know of Speedfan as I used it for a long long time....but it doesnt work on the HP Pavillion DV1411SE. It shows the temp and shit but no fan control option anyone have any suggestion? Thanks for the help guys!
