It turned out I had a bad fan on the CPU, apparently the motor seized. I ordered a replacement and finally installed it earlier today. Everything appears to be running fine even the CPU utilization goes up. I also installed ports/sysutils/mbmon to monitor the voltage and fan RPMs. I must say, this is a very handy tool. Thanks to all for the help! -Yuri
