I tried out that SpeedFan program that FoRcEFiRe recommended. But it seems to show that my CPU is low like it should be... (below 40) but the Temp2 (Presumebly the Mobo) is at 81+ and Temp3 (Have no idea what it's refering to) has no fan spinning and also says it's at 127+...

Hehe, I was thinking that, but the CPU temp is usually pretty accurate, so it's useful for that side of things. Thanks for the feedback :)

No speed fan works, its not hacking your computer and telling you the wrong temperatures, although it may be interpreting which sesnsors are which wrong, or it might be getting a negative voltage (some of my temperatures show up as as -49º :/)

Also manufacturers dont always go by the book, and give out readings speedfan cannot read properly. Take a look at the faq @ http://www.almico.com/sffaq.php

It just needs to be told what hardware you have. On the main speedfan window, click the info tab, then click get config. Go to the site it links too, register and select manufacturer and motherboard model number. Copy and paste the ticket you are given back into speedfan and click ok ;)

edit: You have to figure out yourself "non standard" stuff like sensors coming from your gfx card and other fans such as case fans.

This is what mines like, although it might no apply to you:
