Default [Answered] increase fan speed or reduce cpu temp?

Hi all

I have a bit of a problem. Running xp with 512mb ram on intel celeron r at 3.06ghz

The problem is that my pc average temperature is around 50 - 55 oC and has got an option to auto shut down at 80. I got something called smart fan activated at 60 degrees

I am finding my pc is automatically turing itself off all the time so i need a way to either

a. find a way to increase the speed of my fan so it cools the pc down more or

b. get my computer running on a lower temperature (im guessing 50 is high)

Very frustrating if im installing a piece of software or running a defrag and my pc just goes dead.

Hope somebody can help
