Wow... Your system is running really hot.

Your motherboard seems to be running at a good temperature, so I don't think that case ventilation is your issue; rather, there has to be a problem with the way your processor is having heat removed from it. There are many things that can cause this.

Did you install the heatsink on the processor yourself?
Is your heatsink stock (in other words, is it the heatsink that came with the processor)?
Has the heatsink ever been removed and reinstalled?
Does the heatsink need to be cleaned?

Please answer all these questions.
Did we help you? Did we miss the point entirely? Update your thread and let us know.

Thanks for the reply! I have actually got a friend to come over and look at the inside of my computer and preform surgery. LoL Well he cleaned up the inside and it was the fan on the heatsink that was the issue. He said the k7s5a motherboard has astonished him by still working and not burning out due to the temperature.

We have since replaced the fan on the heatsink and it works like a charm. No crashing and I'm finally able to play games! Woo Hoo. Thanks for all the help Dani Web. This was my first post in regards to this issue and through the countless hours i've spent reading through forums it's finished. In the future i'll come here for help once again as i've learnt so much.

Thanks again and I appreciate everyone's help.

Sincerly,

Dayton
