laptop shut down

[kisakye at open-sms.net]

hi All,
I need help from anyone!!
I recently installed my copy of Ubuntu 5.04 I was excited to have finally
made a move 
in migrating from Windoze to Linux!!
However after installing Ubuntu it ran very well the first time but since
then fails to start one of the error messages it gives is that the system
has reached a critical temperature of 102!!. when I switch over to WinXP it
works fine!! I have checked my BIOS but everything seems fine...
Does anyone know how to get rid of this abrupt shut down!!!

I will be glad
My machine is Dell C610 PIII 750Mhz 256MB RAM 

ALex
