Hello,
I recently got a new CPU for christmas, the Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650, an upgrade from my Core 2 Duo E8500. I installed this one, applying the thermal paste correctly and I booted it up, once my OS loaded to desktop it was the hardware of the CPU it would then shut down each time at the exact same time. So I removed the CMOS battery put back in, then I opened Speed Fan to see that my Temp 1 was at 140C and My Core 1-3 was runnig 88+.
This is obviously not normal because the max temp my CPU can handle is 71.4C. The odd thing is when my PC turns off my case fans still run. I am using Windows 7. Also my monitors stop working once my PC turns off. I have been letting them cool down.
Any suggestions? Also once I do get my PC on I usually dont have any time to do anything before it shuts down.
Frustrated.
