According to the BIOS temperature on my PC at work, my 500mhz PIII is
running at 80 degrees C!!
Of course, I have reason to doubt that figure, when I overclocked it
to 605mhz, it jumped straight to 127 C, in like 1 seccond.
Therefore I think that the temp. readout's busted. (or it mught just
be dependant on the bus clock, therefore it won't work when I
overclocked it...)
See ya :)
