This happens when the temperature reaches over the maximum (85C in this case) value, and the sensor's bits wrap-around.
There's not much that you can do in this situation except fix the severe overheating of your CPU. (basically this is core temp's problem, instead of -41 you should be seeing 87C)
I'll try to fix this in my next release.

so but these are the real temperatures?
This is way too hot or not?
It has a boxed cooler, maybe looking for a new cooler?

This is definitely too hot, your CPU is overheating.
First thing I'd do is clean the heatsink and the rest of the case of dust, make sure that all the case fans are working.
And yes, those temps are real, the processor is overheating.
