Had a similar problem with the new build i just put together. A celeron using the retail HS&F with (and i know better but its just a little system for the kids)the thermal tape between the CPU and heatsink. All was going well untill it locked up, when i was finally able to get back into the bios the cpu temp was still at 78C. I'm waiting on the Artic silver to be delivered and hoping that the CPU isnt toast, however i'm not holding my breath. Loading the OS and other intensive software really put's a strain on the CPU and overheating is the result, at least in my case.
