Benq s42 laptop with an NVIDIA 9600m

Very high gpu temperatures, please help me :(?
Ok, so i have a benq s42 laptop with an NVIDIA 9600m gt. The temperatures are SO high!! For example, it idles at 80c and when i play the sims 3 with everything on medium the temps hit 100-110!! O.O" . Someone told me to change the fan speed. i downloaded rivatuner and i couldn't change the speed, used speedfan and also couldn't change the speed, i couldn't even change it using nvidia control panel!! i tried removing the dust from my gpu by vacuuming the vents, also nothing happened. i tried using a notebook cooler, the temperature only decreased by none to 5 degrees ~__~ !! PLEASE HELP!! i don't want my laptop to die!! :@@ If this helps, these are my specs: Intel core 2 duo 2.4ghz, 3m cache (p8600 i think) 3gb ddr2 ram nvidia geforce 9600m gt with 256mb gddr3
