Default Odd voltage and MBM5 sensor readings

I am using an ASUS A7N8X v2 Deluxe bios 1005 mobo with an Athlon XP
2500+ oc to 2800+, Windows XP. I have been using the normal ASUS Probe
(v2.19.07) to make sure my temperatures are within boundries while
tweaking settings. I have been looking into more seriously ocing my
system. I installed MBM5 so I can watch my sensor readings more carefully.

I installed MBM5 (5.3.5.0) and Prime95 (23.7). After a reboot, I turn
on ASUS Probe and it is telling me that my +5v jumps spontaneously to
6.8xx. Does anyone have any idea what might be causing this? Also, for
some odd reason (after selecting my board in MBM5 as the v2 rev) MBM5 is
reading my CPU as running at ~192 C. So I'm wondering what the hell is
going on. Any help would be extremely appreciated as I do not wish to
continue until I can get accurate readings!

this seems to be a flaw in asus software as I have it happen on several asus
motherboards, is there a way you can physically check your temps. and volts
to compare with the readings the software is showing?

Are you running both programs at the same time? You will get inaccurate
readings if you do.
