If a cooling pad has no effect on heat, I'd conclude that the vents are completely blocked by dust. You won't see it from the outside, disassembly is required to address that. There are videos on YouTube for how to disassemble and clean, this should give you a start https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=hp+pavilio...
If you have already disassembled it and found it clean, you'll want to replace any thermal compound and possibly any thermal pads in the laptop.

Yeah, the freezing/hesitating may be related to heat. Hopefully there will be no hardware you'll need to replace, simply clean and reassemble. It's a little more involved if you need to take off the heatsinks, then thermal compound (at a minimum) would need to be replaced. Most of the time you can remove the fans to get to the vents without removing the heatsink at all (that would be ideal here I think)

I think i know the solution! First of Intel's haswell turbo boost is what causing the high temps. For some reason the turbo kicks in without needed. So i recommend you to follow this steps on this video http://www.youtube.com/?#/watch?v=dxqgXV2sOgw . I think it will work. If it does then you will need to go to your BIOS and manualy disable TB otherwise you will need to do this everytime you start your laptop
