go into the bios for 2 reasons, 1 to see if it happens there & 2 to look in hardware monitor to see what the cpu temperature is at.

CPU Temperature is 154 F
Sys Temp 100 F
NB Temp is 123 F.

I had it shut off for a few hours and this is what i got after starting it back up.

theres your answer.thats smokin hot.check your fans to make sure they are spinning,but first check your cpu cooler.it sounds like the holdowns have let go and its not attached firmly to the cpu.this would be a good time to clean the cpu and heatsink and apply new thermo compound.whoa,just looked at the temps and saw they were in farenheit.while not smoking hot they could be problematical.post your system specs so we can see the temp limits.

If the PC was off for a "few hours" it shouldn't be reading that hot from a cold boot.

Agree that it would be useful to know your system spec.
