Same here...
I have an asus Intel915 chipset...
Just to to asus support web page, and look at this FAQ article:
Q:Why the CPU temerature detected in BIOS H/W Monitor is a little higher than in Windows?
A: It is normal. When WIndows is idle, OS will put the CPU into the low-power states(C1,C2 or C3 state) .But in BIOS setup , the CPU cannot support these states. So the CPU temerature detected in BIOS H/W Monitor will be several Celsius Degrees higher than in Windows.

My answer to him was if he was so smart why is he working at Walmart and not putting his talents to some good use and make some big bucks.

Well in my company I'm in charge of antivirus... and updates. Since we have sophos, I would really love to see some virus that could do so much damage to a computer..
Especially since users in our company have a lot of restrictions accessing system properties etc.
