Thanks Chris and Stephen! 

One thing I noticed is I didn't do the ISA probe. That's already made a
difference. My current reading is 61°C, which may be correct, cuz it's
warm in my office, the CPU is kinda busy right now, and my box isn't
cooled as well as it could be. 

I guess I should re-boot, check the temp in the bios when the the machine
is idle, then check it against lm sensors when idle in Linux. Then if it's
still wrong, I'll try Tom's lm75 trick.
