How to disable automatic overheat shutdown?

[Rostislavs]

Before I write anything, I understand the dangers and why the system is in place.

I recently performed a mod on my x5460 lga771 CPU, so that it fits into my EVGA 680i mobo.
The mod was successfully and the system posted.

However, during windows 7, my system restarts.

I have noticed that the BIOS reports that my CPU is +80C, which I know is not correct because straight after shutting it down, the CPU feels nothing like 80C, 40C maximum.

I think that because of the mod, and that the CPU is not *officially* supported, the BIOS is reporting the wrong temperature and is falsely triggering for the system to shutdown.

I would like to know if there is any way of disabling the automated system. Just in case it does to overheat, I am sure there are accurate pieces of software that can report it.

My system has Award BIOS, version p33.

Thank you in advance

How do you determine - "the CPU feels nothing like 80C, 40C maximum."

Feels, how, exactly?

It feels just a bit warm to touch, nothing like the numbers reported by the BIOS

Well you normally find a cpu thermal, or system shutdown in the bios of the motherboard if it has one.
Have you looked.

You should be able to set a value in C or F to prevent shutdown of the system.

And you are able to physically touch the CPU face? How?
Is there not a CPU cooler on this?

Plus, once a load is removed, they cool down VERY quickly.

You can't turn it off. You could probably turn off this feature if it's the GPU, because it's the driver doing it, but I digress, none of us knows what's really wrong with your PC.

This ^ They can drop massively in a matter of seconds.

You can disable thermal monitoring in the BIOS if you so desire but the CPUs built in thermal shutdown feature, you cannot control that.

Download new BIOS or same and install on motherboard. Maybe help.
