My DELL INSPIRON 600m keeps overheating... It reaches temperatures of 135 fahrenheit. It becomes most annoying when I'm trying to play a game online and it gets so hot that my mouse cursor slows down and everything is "skipping". I have found a temporary solution which involves alternating between two freezer packs to keep it cool but I wish there was a better way.

1.) Does anyone else have this problem?
2.) It is fixable?

I have a quite powerful laptop, I guess its heaviness is down to either the extra cooling system, or the extra battery. The latter sounds more convincing to me. I actually use my laptop as if it was a desktop, is it a good idea to solely running it without the battery? Consequently making my carrier bag lighter... and I guess the answer is...yes?
