Asus P3V4X Problem

I have an Asus Via chipset P3V4X Motherboard. The problem I am having is with the motherboard's temperature sensors. I have a PIII 650 FCPGA on an Iwill slotket hooked up to the motherboard. The sensors are usually working fine, giving me a CPU temp of 45C and a case temp of 35C. The problem is that randomly the temperatures for motherboard and CPU will spike to some insane impossible number (such as 195C) for a very short period of time. The problem occurs less if I use Motherboard Monitor 5, but it still occurs. I use Motherboard Monitor with Shutdown Now. It false alarms oftenly and shuts down my computer often to the point where I have to turn Motherboard Monitor's alarm settings off. Just wondering if anyone else experienced this and how they fixed it. Also, I am looking for a hardware solution on monitoring. I know about the Digital Doc 3, but I was looking for something that can hook up to the Digital Doc 3 to shut down the computer in case of overheating. What I need is something that can get a overheat signal from the digital doc 3, and then short the power on connecter on the motherboard.
 
Make sure you upgrade to the latest BIOS. Early BIOSes for the P3V4X gave some very suspect temperature readings.
 
Quite common as I understand, my board does it from time to time. I have the ICS clock gen chip, with 1005 bios, I just ignore it.
