Hi,
I'm new to the forum, and couldn't find a similar issue to this, but apologies if it's a repeat post. I also was torn between posting this in the CPU section and this one, so again, I apologise if its deemed to be in the wrong one.
On startup from cold, my bios gives a cpu (P4 1.6gig) temperature of 90 degrees centigrade. This is remedied by a restart, sometimes 2, when the temp drops back down to the normal 27 degrees-ish.
I'm a bit worried as to why this is happening. Someone has said it may be a bios issue, and/or that the sensor is playing up. I've replaced my old fan, which was on its way out anyway, which remedied the problem initially, but now its just the same again.
Would anyone have any ida as to what may be causing this anomaly, and how to remedy it?
