I'm having a very severe and disturbing technical problem. Every time I start SoA my CPU temperature jumps up infinitely and consequently leads my PC to emergency shutdown.

Details:
* I have a Full installation of SoA with official patch, Baldurdash, GrandMastery patch and Bonus merchants (no ToB, original and NOT backup CDs, no mods)
* This problem occurs even if I only start up and look at the Main Menu for 5 minutes.
* This problem occured before and I attributed it to the hot weather and an instable Windows installation - I have now done a reinstall of Windows and the weather has cooled of -> the problem still persists
* I do NOT have this problem with other applications or games (Adobe Premiere, IWD2, GTA3, Half-Life,...)

Any idea what is causing this. Apart from making me unable to play my favourite game longer than about 10 minutes I find it also very disturbing technically.
