Another suggestion is to open up the case and blow away any dust that might be covering the cpu and blocking the vents, if you experiencing warm weather at the moment it may be causing over heating issues.

Not a bad idea, as CG apps can eventually blow out the thermals on a cheaper and/or older rig with insufficient cooling. You can still re-purpose the box as a kid's homework station, but its gaming/rendering days might indeed be over. You could delay the inevitable by putting in a nice GPU card and forcing all render to be GPU-only (Poser can do that, right?), but it's just a delay.
