toshiba satellite A30 overheating

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Hi,
My laptop seems to get very very hot in the back corner where the power
plugs in and after about 20 minutes the laptop just switches it's self off.
I am thinking that it is overheating. Underneath the laptop there are 2 fans
that are working all the time and as far as I can see that is all that is
cooling. I have it sat on a wooden desk in a cool room so nothing is getting
in the way.

Is there anything I can do to cure the overheating problem?
