Anyone used a laptop cooling pad, might do the trick?

Here are some links to information (from Australian websites but sure there would be little difference):

If the heatpipes shot nothing will help but a replacement.
It sits directly on the processor with thermal grease and has to work for the computer to not fry, or shut itself down.

Those pads work well, I know many that use them though. The laptops of today crank out heat like mad.
