Why does my Compaq Presario V6500 keep over heating?

I have had the laptop for about a year now and for the past four or so months it keeps heating up really hot and the fan starts running really loud, and sometimes it just turns off. I downloaded a program called speed fan and it is saying that the temperature of the CPU is getting up to about 100 degrees when it turns off and the Video Card is at like 90. Does anyone know why it is doing this and if there is a way to fix it?

Thanks
