I disagree. When the outside temperature is low (say 10-12 degrees C)
there is no need for the fans to spin at all. In fact, this is exactly
what I have in my other PC - the box fan stops and only the CPU fan is
operational at that time, which helps me save a bit on the electricity
bill and reduces the noise.

Yeah, it should, but it doesn't, hence why I am using the driver and my
script.

I did, but it seems they are a complete numpties - their "technical
support" department is neither technical and they offer pitiful support,
so I am left to my own devices so to speak.

No problem!
