Hi jodaz and welcome to Club Vaio.

There have been a number of recent posts relating to heat problems with the BX series. No solutions to date but at least you can rest assured that you are not alone with this problem. Try a search of this forum – sorry to be of little help with this.

Have you seen the position of the intake for the cooling fan?, the chances are that if you have the laptop directly on your lap you will be blocking the air intake dont do it.
