Ok, maybe that didn't fix it - or at least I've run into another
problem. Sometimes it's saying that the fan's on:

Thermal 1: active[0], 59.0 degrees C

But physically the fan's not on, and the cpu's continuing to heat up :(
I guess this is related to buggy BIOS as well though, anyone have any
suggestions?

Please CC any replies, Thanks
