My CPU temperature seems high ever since i updated my pc
to sp1,
I am running windows XP SP1 have an AMD Athlone 2800XP.
The Temp used to be about 40 degrees but now it's idle
running temp is 60 - 65 degrees.
If i turn the pc on in the morning the temp is 50 degrees
but within 5 mins shoots up to 60 plus.
I have checked my CPU fan and cleaned it up but still
have the same effect.
I have read that it would be wise to add some thermal
paste to it so it can be seated correctly, but surely the
temp would have been 60 plus degrees when i put the fan
in in the first place.
Hope you understand this and look forward to replies
