Hello! Your setup is interesting, but the BIOS reading such high temperatures suggests something may be amiss. Running for just 30 minutes and moving files shouldn’t cause immediate shutdowns unless overheating occurs. Check the motherboard’s thermal sensors and ensure proper airflow. The reading of 128°C is extreme—consider verifying the hardware and cooling system before assuming incorrect reporting.

You've just confirmed your query. The maximum temperature for that board is 120°C, and it would shut down at 128°C. It seems stability might be a concern. You might want to update the BIOS—there could be a fix in a newer version. It's worth checking.

It's not really affecting me, just making me a little anxious. I thought it would be a good idea to verify before accepting it as true and causing any trouble with my computer.

Are you certain it’s not 128 degrees Fahrenheit? 128°F equals 53°C, which makes sense. It remains in use in some remote regions.

128 is the upper limit for an 8-bit signed integer. This refers to the TR1 sensor header; the sensor isn't physically connected. The EMI from inside the case creates a minor voltage that the firmware treats as a signal. Consider it safe (page 41) https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/so...D-M/Manual&AVL/E8096_P9D-M-series_forweb.pdf?model=p9d-mv
