Hot cpu

I have a P4 3.0 lga775

I am using the heatsink it camewith. And I also applied a thin layer of thermal paste. But the temps still range from 55-100!!!
Please help.
 
It should shut down before 100. I would advise a new hsf. The one that came with my celeron d still lets it overheat and its only 2.53GHz.
 
I would open your case up, take off the heatsink and then re-apply it, making sure thats it's on there securely. Also, if there is no thermal compound (white/gray pasty stuff), then you really should get some.
