Hi

I've got a A7N8X Deluxe, Athlon XP 2600, 512 PC2700 and the processor
seems
to be at a really high temp. When I start the PC, it's about 50C and the
mobo about 25 - 30C (according to both Asus Probe and the bios). When I
start using it, e.g. gaming, things go crazy and the PC starts beeping,
the
temps in the 70C - 80C region!! I restarted after the temp got high and
the
"speaking lady" at POST said "CPU fan failed" although everything was
working. When I went into the bios, every 2 seconds, the CPU temp would go
from 30C to 60C and back and forth. What's going on?! All connections seem
fine, fans working, I've even flashed the latest bios in again. Please
help!!

That's what you get for buying AMD. Didn't you hear that these CPUs actually
MELT?
