Tony,

I had the same problem, and installed smcFanControl to monitor the fans. It 
lets you check the temperature on CPU and HHD. After a couple of weeks I 
decided that the problem was with my CPU fan, and that it was probably an 
accumulation of dust - the machine is some years old. I took it into our local 
service centre and had it cleaned out - it has been just fine for over a year 
now.

Cheers, K
