    The problem is not with the heat, it is more of a Vista Aero and gaming interference.
    Go to the run command, and type in msconfig.
    Then shut off background services and programs which you do not use.
    In the services tab, look for "Microsoft Windows Vista Operating System" unclick that one and shut it off. This shuts off the aero feature of Vista. It will free up a massive amount of memory, harddrrive and processor speed.

    I hope this helps,

    when you turn on a game aero turns off i hope you know that because the little window always pops up and says somthing like " Color Scheme changes to Basic to Improve Preformance " also i doubt that vista is making his hardware run hotter id bet its more to do with the surface hes using it on or somthings not right with the cooling system

    Seriously, this is going too far.
    They told that they changed my GPU the second time it was in repair. GUESS WHAT, they found out after 4 months that it was never replaced. + They said that if they cant find the problem next time when its in repair, theyre going to take a repair fee.
