Wrapped up my PC re-build yesterday and now things aren't looking good. Immediately after booting for the 1st time with Win install CD in, computer began to alarm from the internal speaker. Shut down and entered BIOS to take a look. CPU temps were at 127C! Immediately checked inside the PC and heatsink felt fine and didn't notice any hotspots around CPU area. Just disabled the alarms because I figured this wasn't even possible to run this hot. Made it through Vista install fine and began to setup the computer (drivers and whatnot). After installing the uGuru software so I could monitor the temps from Windows, the CPU was at 8C? It seems to bounce between zero and low single digits and 127C (always 127C when high). I even ran Orthos for 2 hours and it went from 18C on the low end (actually stayed there for quite a bit) and up to 127C. Now today the computer has began to freeze up (completely unresponsive) and can barely make 2 minutes into Windows before freeze up. I'm totally confused now and don't know where to begin. One thing that needs to be noticed is that I had to use a LOT of pressure to install the CPU heatsink clips. To the extend that I may have tweaked the board. Is the CPU temp sensor in the chip itself or in the board?
