I've had my 6324w for about 18 months now and just made the jump from XP to Windows 7 (x64). The laptop was overheating before, but I relied on RM CPU Clock Utility to undervolt the CPU and keep it in line that way. Now I can't for the life of me get CPU Clock Utility to work in Windows 7 - even when running in compability mode and with disabled driver signing.
So I thought it's about time to deal with the actual problem - the insufficient cooling. Now Swedish consumer law obligates the retailer to sort this problem for me, but I'm curious as to what they will and won't do. Is there any proper fix for this problem - like installing a new and bigger cooling fan?
I have the latest BIOS driver, 2.0GHz C2D CPU and the 8600M GT card. While playing demanding games, the CPU starts throttling after a few minutes (the core reaches 100c easily). E: The retailer is zeptoexperten.se (swedish counterpart to zeptoeksperten.dk). They seem to sare the support and repair services of zepto.se and zepto.dk .

why in the world are you using windows 7 then?
Those temps are sure not normal for a CPU... I would trie to reapplie some cooling paste on your CPU. and see if that changes anything.
And are you sure that its the CPU getting to 100 and not the GPU? -
Rmclock should work fine on w7, alot of people have reported that it works just like vista. Did you download and use the 64bit RMclock drivers?

RMClock works fine for my system in Windows 7, but I don't use it unless I want the best battery life as it doesn't reduce my CPU temp by much. I have re-applied the thermal paste to both the CPU and the GPU. I also regularly take my keyboard off to thoroughly clean the GPU heatsink as it is by far the crappest design I have ever seen (too few & small fins). I do this about once a month. So far I have no real overheating problems, occasionaly it will get to about 92C but that is for only a few seconds at a time and is very rare.
