[mythtv-users] Anybody seeing "kernel: CPU0: Temperature above threshold" with Prescott CPU's and FC3 ?

[ToadMazter]

I have been on a MythTV quest for 4 months now, and after failing with 2 previous Backend hardware setups, I hoped I had found the right combination.  Here's what I have for my dedicated (no TV viewing) backend:

 

Gigabyte GA-8ICXT motherboard

Intel 630 processor (Pentium 4 3 Ghz Prescott)

1 gig Corsair RAM

3ware 9508-SMI SATA RAID controller  ( 4 200 gig SATA drives in RAID 5 JFS for my LVM video partition)

2 160 gig SATA drives for boot (Linux software RAID 1)

Integrated Intel E7221 video ( I think this is why FC4 won't install, but that is for another tiime....)

2 HD3000 cards

1 PVR 150 card (not enough PCI slots for the 2nd card I purchased so now I need a PVR-500)

FC3.  Ran yum upgrade and installed mytv-suite and ivtv drivers... that is as far as I have gotten before I decided this error was driving me crazy!!!

mythtv-be kernel: CPU0: Running in modulated clock mode

The machine is basically idle, and I am faily certain it isn't over heating, but how do I check the temps?  It is in a huge server tower case with a bunch of fans and the room temperature is 72 F.

I did read in the Fedora forums that Prescott processor run hot, but couldn't find a way to raise the temperature threshold. http://forums.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=28069

I disabled Hyperthreading in the BIOS.  And then tried to but with a non-SMP kernel, but that just seemed to hang the machine during boot.
