I meant to ask - is the only place you can check your temp at start-up... in the BIOS?

Nope, not at all.

Here's a free utility that can let you monitor it. I've tried it on a few machines and it works.

speedfan

Hmonitor will do the same thing(google it if speedfan doesn't work). If you're on a machine less than 2 years old, there should be a utility bundled with the machine, but that's always speculative. Some machines simple did't bundle it from the box.

Spot check your temps, 60C is too high, 50s are high, but tolerable. Below that, you're set.

Thank you so much! I'll install it on the working PC tomorrow morning first thing. I appreciate your quick response. Our PC is almost 3 years old, but I couldn't find a related utility installed, and I recently removed Norton Everything which may have had it. I'm glad to not have to reinstall Norton for it, haha.
