That was my guess as well.

As it's probably not FreeBSD you're now asking on the wrong list, and other than cooling advice you're not going to get much (unless there are any closet over-clockers hereabouts). Personally I favour filling the whole case with a pumped fluorocarbon like FC-77 and using a heat exchanger to take the heat away in water to use in a fountain in my hallway ;-)

The one sensible suggestion no one has made is to check if a BIOS upgrade doesn't fix it. As to getting FreeBSD to manage it instead of the BIOS: Unfortunately not all chipsets and motherboards are supported. If you want to add support yourself see:

/usr/src/sys/dev/acpica

If you want to get some idea of what you're up against see:

/usr/src/sys/dev/acpica/acpi_quirks

I've thought about it a few times but real work always got in the way.

Regards, Frank.
