Hi Wayne and everyone.

This story is getting more and more interesting with each reply.

Very interesting set of temps here Wayne. It sounds a bit strange to me that
the CPU temp is lower that the board chipset temps. 

What is the mother board your are running??

Yes you could be correct in that assumption, but the above temps still seem
different than would appear to be mormal spec.

I just love computers, always an exception somewhere....

This is what I really love about systems.This is really the fun part and you
got to have a good sense of humour...!!! When you are trying to set something
up out of the box, the pix on the instructions shows the device, the versons
are all correct, but these instruction do not follow the chipset setup on the
screen.

Don't we all just love a challenge...!!!!!

Hope you get passed this prac Wayne... All the best from DownUnder...
