    Anyone else notice that the new version of speed fan which is supposed to be core 2 duo compatible seems to have incorrect offset values for temperature reporting? I went from version 4.31 to version 4.32 and the temps reported were suddenly way lower. I believe 4.32 to be incorrect because on boot after the laptop being turned off for a long period of time the temps are BELOW room temperature (50-60 degrees F). After some time they will eventually settle at about 80 degrees F but I can't buy that the cpu runs not even 10 degrees above room temp. Version 4.31 seems to report more accurate numbers.

    Yes i was wondering about that too.. the temps reported were low compared to what is felt when touching the machine in relation to room temp.
