    Laptops usually run a bit hotter than desktops, but still the temps are not very fair IMHO.
    Code:
    CPU
    Intel Core i5 460M @ 2.53GHz: 
    55 °C
    Arrandale 32nm Technology
    
    RAM
    6.00GB Dual-Channel DDR3 @ 531MHz (7-7-7-20)
    
    Motherboard
    SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. QX310/QX410/QX510/SF310/SF410/SF510 (CPU 1):
    61 °C
    Depending on the age of the computer, I would say that it will need a dusting. Overheating may cause all those freezing. But opening a laptop computer is not very easy .... you may need to take the assistance of a professional for this purpose.

    Get the laptop a cleanup and new thermal paste to the CPU heatsneak. See if it changes the situation or not. Let us know.

    Yeah, after seeing the temperature and the laptop frequently coming out with "running" sound. Guess you're right about it. Will go ask about the price for the fixup first. As for age, its about 2 years old

    You may search in your laptop manufacturer's site, using your laptop's model number. They may have an updated BIOS there.
