acer laptop with the same problem
In my case it was fluff and dust etc blocking the fan. How the laptop worked at all was beyond me as the heatsink for the CPU showed telltale blueing on the copper - would not like to think what the temp of the CPU was.
Anyway cleaned it all up and works like a dream.
