It's sending my CPU temp up high enough to bump the BIOS overheat warning frequently. That setting is currently 78C/172F, and rebooting while the temp was elevated showed a temp of 70C, with similarly elevated temps on the other sensors. So far the only way I know to make the beeping stop is to drop to runlevel 3. After cooldown, fresh cleaning, reboot directly into BIOS, & 20 min uptime, temp is at 61C. The CPU is a socket 478 P4 3.0G, about 5 years old, but I don't remember whether Prescott or Northwood. Fans & heat sinks are all clean and working. How do I figure out what is making KDED use so much CPU, and stop it without having to log out? -- "Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labor in vain." Psalm 127:1 NIV Team OS/2 ** Reg.
