477734 2006-08-19 07:31:00 Thanks Jen, I just finished downloading Motherboard Monitor as i finished my last post, but was about to check my MOBO cd too (thinking along the same lines as you :)), and my MOBO being Asus, appears to have program called "Asus PC Probe", which appears to be exactly what i am looking for, so i will give that a go and see how i get on.

Thanks :).

477735 2006-08-19 10:49:00 O.k well have just done a full system AV scan on my 60gig hdd and the systems been on a good 2 and half hours now. My start temps using Asus Probe Prog were 44C, i had one split second peak about 10mins into scan, which am hoping was perhaps the seating, this immediately disappeared, with max of 48C for a tiny bit, then averaging out to about 45/46C. Now i am down to 43C with basics/normal progs running.

Would i be seeing signs of overheating at this stage if things weren't right? I guess time will tell perhaps.

Big Thanks to all of you for your advice, much appreciated :).

I dont know what is/was more nerve wracking, actually installing the heatsink/fan or watching the temps :eek:.
