yes, it can be overheating... I had that exact problem with my Sony Vaio... the internal CPU fan died.  I replaced the fan (2 years ago) and it is solid.... been running Knoppix on it, and NO problems encountered!
 
Good luck!

Hey guys having a bit of difficulty and I thought'd i'd put it out
there and see if anyone has any ideas.

Basically the problem is that my laptop, which is now 2 years old, has
started to randomly switch off when I'm playing games. The times when
it does it are inconsistent - sometimes i'll have been playing for 20
minutes, other times, for an hour or so. I've checked out for viruses,
spyware, defragged, updated drivers, but nothing helps. I think it
might be overheating but I can't be sure. Any ideas?
