Asus Probe versus BIOS??

[chop]

Houston, we have a problem. I installed a new P4 2.0 GHz today and the BIOS reads the temp at 33-37c. When I installed the Asus Utility it shows the temp at 57-70c. YIKES. I tried to re istall the Probe, but got the same results. Any ideas what is going on. Which one should I look at for a clear reading? Seems logical to me that the motherboard wouldn't post such a low number if the chip was on fire? You thoughts please. Thanks

By the way the OS is Windows XP Home Edition

bios readings are the most accurate, try gettin MBM 5.1 thats a lot more acurrate than ASUS Probe...

I haven't had any problem with Asusprobe, but I've heard many people who have. I recommend the free Motherboard Monitor 5 (http://mbm.livewiredev.com/). Most people here use it. Asus Probe is definitely giving you some funky numbers. Most CPUs should shut down in that range of temps.
