I recently got an 800mhz Thunderbird. It was running fine for a week. Yesterday, however, ASUS PC Probe (I have an Asus A7V) sounded an alarm - MY CPU WAS RUNNING AT 86 CELSIUS. I shut down my pc and now it won't boot. I don't think the cpu is fried because it shutdown properly. Any ideas on what caused this or why it won't boot?

btw - The cpu is cooled by a Silver Orb (the new golden orb for thunderbirds). The fan was working fine at the time the cpu overheated and NO the cpu was not overclocked. The cpuu was running at about 68 celcius for the past week.
