In the bios the cpu temp was 39C. As soon as I restarted and got into windows, PC Probe II was reading the cpu temp as 46C.

So, did the cpu get 7 degrees hotter from simply starting up windows or is one of the temp readings less accurate then the other?
 
Sorry I should have made it abit clearer, prior to me going into the bios the pc was actually on for afew hours :)

Im not too worried about the temps, if my rooms warm it idles in the mid 40s and hits mid 50s under load. If it hits 60C then il start to worry ;)
