Something must be wrong with whatever is measuring your cpu because either in F or C 255 would be too hot for it to operate because thats past the boiling point of water (100C/212F).

Are you sure its not 25.5F or C?

Try getting CPUcool at tweakfiles.com. Marvelous utility. It not only measures your mobo and cpu temp, it actively lowers them. And you can choose the exact maker and model of your motherboard (ie Gigabyte GA-6vxe7+ (Im not sure its on there specifically, but it is very extensive on the list)).

Id say if all your sensors are reading 255 degrees, something is screwy with them. Theres no way your system would run at that temp.

the sensor is probably knackered, My first gigabyte had a faulty CPU fan speed indicator, it was always at 0. Its just one of those things that doesn't merit rejecting a PCB for.
