Siemens speedstream 4200 over heats

[lotzamoxie]

The box over heats while on Facebook/FarmVille and shuts computer down. Would it help to get it up off the flat surface and sit it on a well venilated rack?

Wall mounting may help, whatever puts the vents uppermost.

Personally, I'd open the case and cut some holes in it.

Thanks so much...I thought that might be the problem...sometimes I wanted to put holes in it with a hammer.
