Problem with fan speed (P5Q-E mb)

OK, so hello! I bought this machine roughly 2 months ago and I didn't have a single problem with it up 'till now. The problem is that one of the computer fans is making a lot of noise and I cannot control it with EPU 6-engine (Six Engine). My motherboard is an Asus P5Q-E. My opinion is I didn't install anything that might interfere with this software (i.e. microsoft office, etc.) so this problem I have is really weird. I even tried uninstalling said programs like Microsoft office, but still the problem persists.

Prior to the problem occurring I was able to perfectly manage my CPU and Chassis Fan speed and noise from "Six Engine" program menu. For example when I selected the "Max. Power Saving Mode" it was pretty quiet which allowed me to sleep at night without getting annoyed by the sound. But now it's really loud and annoying and whenever I try to change it by any means (EPU, Asus AI Suite) it doesn't do anything at all. Only one of the fan speed changes, which means the other is constant at some speed. This didn't happen at the start, it only started happening three or four days ago so I don't think it was that by default. I think that was all I needed to mention. Below I'm posting some screenshots of my computer specs so you may get some basic info may you ask.
