I cannot get the CPU temp to update, from cold (after being powered down
overnight for example) sensors will report a temp of approx 16-17c and it
will not move. If I run for a while and reboot, CPU temp will then show
something like 45-50c and again it will not move. In both cases this is
similar to the temp reported by BIOS as the system boots.
I think I have shown the relevant information below.
Any suggestions will be gratefully received.
Thank you in anticipation
