Originally posted by BowmannI was a little vague and inaccurate there. I don't mean that there is a problem with the CPU, rather, just it's temperature.
Why?
Because the BIOS was set to shut down the PC when the CPU temperature reached 65 C, and the CPU temperature was reaching this temperature when on for a minute or so. Now I have increased this setting to shutdown at 75 C, it isn't shutting down.
Originally posted by BowmannFrom what I read, that is the reading he reported after the cleaning not before. If it is rubbish, then it is only so based on the information given. If that was the reading given prior to the cleaning then I agree. If it is continuing to over heat then maybe so. He increased the temperature for not shutting down but what is the actual temperature now that he has cleaned the dust? It was only a theory. But without knowing this for sure we can't say can we? Strange that this cleaning "rubbish" is actually printed in the diagnostic manuals.
More rubbish.

Originally posted by BowmannAgreed if you have cleaned the vents, fan, and the tines of your heat sink on your mother board.
Then the likeliest source of the problem is your power supply.
Have done work on your mother board? If so the point of contact with the heat sink adhesive could be a bother, reassembled not quite 100%?
My pc's running temp is 21.6 celcius.
