Check my sig, but I wonder if 40 to 42 degrees Celcius is a bit hot??
Could I have done something wrong, or is this normal. (used Arctic Silver)

It's a P4, don't sweat it dude!
If it reboots or slows down, you have a problem. If it's running fine, go with it. The Intel PIII and 4's have thermal safeguards built in.
Anyway, your temp at 100% CPU load would be more interesting:DThe reason a diamond shines so brightly is because it has many facets which reflect light. -

Yeah idle temps don't matter a great deal (so long as its not extreme) but the full load temps are the ones that really count.
Oh and P4's do run warm. :smokin:

Arctic Silver takes a few hours and even a day or three to reach its full potential.
As long as you applied it evenly and carefully, you should be cool as a bug in a, uh, igloo.Comment

49 to 52 is quite nice!
I think your gonna' be just dandy.The reason a diamond shines so brightly is because it has many facets which reflect light.Comment

I have seen them run fine upto 56deg
your in no danger
Intel run hotter nowComment

Throttling doesn't seem to start on a P4 till ya hit around 70C so ya safe. :smokin:

Wiggo is correct
The intel default on the thermal diode is 70deg Celcus. I know i asked IntelComment
