Have a PC with an i3 540, 8GB, and an Asus 7H55-M motherboard. According to HWiNFO, the SYSTIN3 temperature is 190.5C. All of the other temps seem normal:

Core0 30C
Core1 27C
CPU 43.5C
Motherboard 25C
GPU (HD4350) 43C

There is one called Auxilliary that is high at 86C, but I have read that this could be a misread. What is the SYSTIN3 measure for, and has anyone run across something like this before? As far as I know with a temp this high, I should be standing on the sidewalk letting the local firefighters fight off the inferno caused by this cauldron in this PC...

Here's a reply from the hwinfo author to someone else wondering what the SYSIN is. Looks like a bogus sensor not attached to anything.

My guess is that it is a mis-read sensor on the board. I just looked at my HWInfo and that was not listed at all in the read out (ASUS Sabertooth 990FX). A Google search pulls up a variety of answers for SYSTIN3. I don't think I would be concerned: You're right - if it really was nearly 200C it would be on fire.
Restart and go into your BIOS and see what all the temperatures are under the hardware monitor of monitor tab.

I really appreciate that you took the time to answer nostall. I guess that would make sense, but I will take a look at the numbers in BIOS. I Googled before I posted here and found some information, but it appeared to me to be in German. Maybe I can find some more on this.

Thanks
