hi. my pc was occasionally restarting but no serious hardware issues, a microsoft error report said probably due to bios problems. i used abit uguru to automatically update the bios and since then i am getting alarm beep that processor is running at 95c (this was confirmed by ‘speedfan’ program which gave similar reading). two questions really, guessing here but could the incorrect bios have been loaded and would flashing correct bios cure it. if so how do i go about doing this, i have no floppy drive and although i have managed to create a bootable usb and put the latest bios for my board on this, i can’t get any option to boot from it in the bios menu. if not a bios problem what could it be? as i said there were no hardware problems till the bios was changed. all fans appear to be working normally and heatsink is properly seated on processor. My system has Abit ip35pro xe board with e8400 processor.
