so take off all you clothes

tried taking the heatsink off + loads of AS3, or, another case fan ?

his board temps are fine, his CPU is WAY higher than it should be.

IMO another case fan WON'T help. his case is cool enough!
LOADS of AS3 is probably his problem - IMO he hasn't applied it well / too much / too little.

Malice, I kinda had the same problem but ALOT worse on my PIII 800, I was reaching temperatures of 103oC!! It wouldnt let me load to windows and would always crash on me, I thought there might have been something wrong with the diode, twasnt. In the end good old elbow grease solved the problem, the fan on the processor just need cleaning, it was as dirty as my girlfriend! My problems were solved.

So just give it a good clean, it might work. Seriously!

it was as dirty as my girlfriend!

I wish it was that simple mate But the HSF I had in there was almost new so it didn't need cleaning....

But I went out today and treated myself to the

Coolermaster Aero 7+ (Socket A) (HS-006-CM)
And it’s Great now I'm getting temps of
CPU Temp 45.5 0c

But have learnt that it was not the chip getting to Hot which was the problem

I am still getting a continues Beep sound through my speakers then the game slows down then crashes this is when playing any game for about 3minutes...???

[malice19]

I have also tried to Flash the Bios....
But didn't have any luck with that as it keeps coming up with an error message.

Address (3FFFFh) --- Expected (42h), Real (00h)
Error --- Data Compare Failure

Can any one tell me why this is happening because I got the update from the Asus site and have done it before without problems?

Or if you think you know why and what I should do to stop my pc from crashing Please tell me....
Thanks 4 all the help so far People!
