any
lockups or freezing like alot of overheating cpus do...any
suggestions???



I would be tempted to change temp monitor programs. Or
verify the setting that MBM5 is currently using.

If you cannot find the livewiredev.com site anymore, there is an
archived copy of it here. Chances are, someone may be hosting
what remains of the site, but for my purposes, this page is
good enough for now.

Or try SpeedFan http://www.almico.com/sfdownload.php




We have AMD Athlon 3000+ running at 61 deg C, which I thought was damned
hot. We would fit a better cooling fan to the CPU, but it's difficult to
see how it would fit with the current layout in the case. 61 freaks me
out - 73 would really freak me out!
