    According to i8kfan, both cores are running 95-100 deg C!!

    Fan 1 is running at 4470 RPM and is on "High". Fan 2 is not one anything and is running at 922 RPM.

    I have the A10 BIOS. Should I replace one or both fans (are there actually two fans?)?

    Thanks.

    Theres only one fan/heatsink in there.

    Have you tried blowing out the intake for the fan with some canned compressed air?

    Thanks. I didn't try compressed air yet, but when I replaced the fan some months ago, I cleaned things up pretty well (I thought).

    Hmmm....for some unknown reason, the temps are now down to around 75!! Well, as long as it doesn't shut itself off!! :)
