Download cpu-z, and gpu-z (both free) to keep track of the temps.

I would try zigzag suggestion and if it does run hot, I would return it. Its new and you should not be having, what could be, a serious problem. It could be the fan.

Netbooks run hot, mine was scorching after long periods. Small confines of space make flowing of cold air limited. Plus component like the CPU and HDD are close to the case making heat transfer easier.
