Simple "Why" Answer

The "fan speed" BIOS option is not available on your computer.

Longer Answer

Options in the BIOS are fully dependent on the model / type of machine.

Business / Commercial class machines offer more control and additional (Advanced) options.

1.  Fan Speed is a Desktop only option on Business / Commercial Desktop machines.
