I have VIA hardware monitor installed and it says CPU temperature is 84 F and system temp. is 89 F. in an ambient temperature of ~68. It's in a big roomy Antec full tower with plenty of fans so, if those readings are accurate, heat should not be a factor. I'll try to get in the case and blow out the dust bunnies, but they're slow to accumulate since I have some thin foam covering the intakes. I haven't read the BIOS version of temperature because that entails switching out the keyboard from a UBS keyboard that's dead until nearly all of Windows is loaded to a regular plug in keyboard (in case someone else is banging on the DEL key without result<g>). I wonder if you would get an accurate reading of temperature at the start of bootup, or is there some way to read that health status page from Windows.
