possible onboard temp sensor screwed up. if possible try in another board to see what temp is whether normal or high like now

make certain have clear air flow thru case, all fans are running properly & if possible try another p4 psu just in case sending to much power to system, so almost like overclocking but is not

after using computer for a while, feel the heatsink to see if hot or warm to see if temp sensor is reading true or not.
