In the chalk it up to experience catagory.

So the CPU start running hot. The alarm goes off and my family shuts it off. They restart it later and it works fine. But every now and then it gets hot.

I dismount the HSF, clean and apply AS5. Everything looks fine. Temps look fine.

It gets hot again. I dismount, clean and remount again.

Now the CPU temp displays as 0C. Evidently the sensor was failing all along, it never was getting hot.
Hey, four solid years of use and abuse is good for me. Now just to ignore the temp.....
