cpu temp 103* C...yeah...very bad.

I managed to get into the bios and the cpu temp said 103c.

The fan is over working it seems. It's an Intel core 2 duo 2.4 ghz chip.

Build the computer out of used parts and everything else is working...so any ideas why the temp is so high? How do I lower it?

Could it be the very crappy PSU that i have? i have a coolmax 400w.

Got it up and running. If only I could overclock it, but it's an intel board and the bios won't let me. Can't find any kind of FSB downloads either. I put linux on it.
