Critical temperature reached, shutting down

I have an ECS board which triggers these Critical temperature alarm and them
my system shuts down. This happens only in "yum update" but doesn't on video
playback for hours.

Jan 14 14:06:19 localhost kernel: Critical temperature reached (127 C),
shutting down.
Jan 14 14:06:19 localhost kernel: Critical temperature reached (127 C),
shutting down.

The problem I have is that the CPU temp stays about 40C when this happens
(using sensors) and can't find any temperature that goes higher in the
sensors data.

Seems like a ACPI problem but the kernel log message has no details on which
sensors is at 127 C.

Is there a way to tell the kernel to be a bit more verbose on these?

Thanks.
