My temps are as follows: MB = 31*C, CPU (P4, 2.6) = 38*C, and AUX = 70*C (158*F). Your AUX temp does sound high, but I'm not even sure where the AUX temp comes from. Is your system stable? If so, you may not have anything to worry about ... your other temps are fine.

I have the same reading, AUX reads as 120*C. I figured that most electronics at that temperature would probably melt or malfunction in some way. Basically you probably wouldent need a program to tell you it was that hot because the smoke & fire would tell you. Obviously the sensor is stuffed or the software is'nt reading the sensor correctly.
