Ok don't worry. Its fixed. The big cpu cooling fan on the processor was getting a little loose from its traveling and wasn't putting all its wait on the processor so it was over heating. the computer is on its side now so the problem has stopped as the fan is putting all its weight on the processor. Thats it in simple details
heatsinc and fan should be clamped in place for best results
