Whoever decided to save a few pennies when sourcing the 45nm Core 2 sensors must have been reassigned to a new department.

I sent you a testing program in a PM. Thanks for helping me out John.
Thanks Uncle, all received, you have mail
Yes it is a bit disappointing that the premium processors have the dodgy sensors, I guess it is because I purchased this back in December 2007 (just after release), I would imagine the Quads with the newer C1 and E0 steppings have better sensors?

(One would hope)

Thanks for your help
