I just kicked off the latest Windows 11 update on my PN53. Upon restart, partway through the bootup screen with the Asus logo, the screen would flash back to the AMD bootup info screen, but with the error "CPU Over Temperature Error! Press F1 to run SETUP". Thing is, my CPU wasn't overheating, and could hear the fan running. Log into BIOS and the CPU temp & fan speed are at normal, expected levels for just sitting there.
With the help of chat, this appear to be a false alarm error, where something in the BIOS or sensor calibration gets tripped after the update.
While in the BIOS -> Monitor tab -> CPU temp -> Enter -> Disable
My PN53 continued booting after this. I'm gonna keep an eye on it. After a few more normal restarts that I do, I'll see if everything's normal and re-enable the CPU temp trigger in the BIOS again and see what happens.

That's a frustrating but insightful find with your PN53; it's a perfect example of a software update causing a hardware-level false alarm, much like how a system glitch might incorrectly show a bill as unpaid. Your method of disabling the CPU temp trigger to bypass the error was a smart diagnostic step. It’s crucial to have clear, accurate status readings, whether you're checking a BIOS sensor or tracking official payments—for instance, I always recommend using the official portal for a cfms bill status check to get a definitive, real-time update. Hopefully, Asus releases a BIOS update soon to permanently calibrate that sensor, saving you from future boot-up interruptions!
