Hi all, hope someone can help me out... :(

I have intel E6600 core2duo, with the stock heatsink, running default settings.

Today i turned on my computer to find a warning saying H/W monitor status - check heatsink/ CPU temp / fans. Then my computer shut down.
I restarted my machine & entered into the bios to find extreme CPU temps. its was sitting at 91oC with the Vcore at 1.17..?

I shut down everything & opened up my case & reinstalled my stock Heatsink.
turned on my system to find that nothing had changed..

Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong with my system..? do i need a new heatsink or something..?

with temps like those, I'll have to say your mounting the heatsink incorrectly, or the heatsink IS NOT TOUCHING THE IHS......
