I seem to remember it has something to do with how 2k uses the hlt command. There is a way using reshack to enable this and some programs like CPU idle or rain were able to enable this and you could see idle temp drops.
I am using a temperature monitor that I mounted under the diode and monitor it externally and not through the hardware. I am, strangely enough my temps have now risen for Windows XP Pro aswell...
If I didn't need windows to play Far Cry I wouldn't even have it near my computer...
XP Pro is based off Windows 2000, I don't know why one would run hotter?
If you have an intel board, download Intel's Active Monitor from www.intel.com
