New build cannot start

[FredeGail]

FredeGail,
Where on the mobo is this temp being read? TMPIN1 or System are choices in SIW SIW | System Information for Windows by Gabriel Topala that I use. I was shocked to see my TMPIN1 showing 73 c but only to learn that this is a common temp error as my system shows 27 c and CPU @ 19-21 c at the same time.

Actually I have no idea. Isn't usually reading on the North Bridge?

You can always do the touch test as 60-70 c will be hot to the touch at that's 140f - 158f. Likely it's just warm or warmer !

Thanks.

I will check the BIOS instead of Speccy. I was also thinking, I was using the 64-bit version of Speccy. Maybe I should try the 32-bit, or even another software. I would also try to speed the fans more indeed, and try to move the cables infront of the frontfan.

Sent from my cell.

It was of course Speccy that gave me incorrect sectors. In the very first uptime of my pc, it still said 60, I checked BIOS afterwards, and it said 21-24 celcius.

That sounds great. I've found that some of the software does not read Sandy Bridge correctly.

Yeah, my computer ran great today! Now I just need a new harddisk and graphic card, and I have a whole new computer.
I also changed the way the cables are, giving a bit more space for the harddisk, which is pretty great.

Great, good job. Cable management is more of an art than a science. To me, that is the hardest part of a build.

It is. It is, indeed.
