You might need to clean your notebook. Get a can of compressed air and blow into the vents. See if that helps.
 
iv already done that, well i opened it up coz i needed to put some more mem in and cleaned it then but didnt make a diff
 
Look at the thermal grease, and see if it's applied correctly on the notebook. If you're comfortable with it, try replacing it with some higher quality stuff.
 
right iv just put Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound on and its still going upto 80c within 5/10mins of the cpu at about 80% 100% and overheating...

whats the normal temp for the Intel Core Duo 1.6GHz T2050... does any1 no?
