    Yes, that is strange. I would try CPUID - System & hardware benchmark, monitoring, reporting

    Just one more program that will tell you what your sensors are reading.

    Thanks Liquidsnack
    Cpuid also has my temps at 85 celcius so i think its safe to say im running hot and maybee intels gadget is a bad one to use as its 5 against 1 now lol.Ive just sat outside for 15 mins with my notebook (its 2 degrees here) and my temps have dropped right off. I wonder how much central heating has a part to play at this time of year.My better half has got it on full at the moment.I think i will invest in one of those chill pads you mentioned though they sound a good idea.How did these work for you

    Chill pads are great. They are the right mix of powerful and portable. Do you transport your laptop a lot, or does it sit in one place most of the time? There are other options that I would recommend based on your usage of the laptop :)
