Update
I got  ASD 2.5.7 and upon booting and selecting the Thermal calibration is says 
calibration not needed. And It will not allow the initiation of the calibration 
operation, however the ASD 2.5.8 says not needed but will let me try anyway. So 
I think that the 2.5.8 may produce a false reading if calibration is not 
needed. And again the "OS" and "OF" passed all two hours of it :-)
