Subject: slow down computer (because it powers down when compiling)?

I have a laptop that normally powers down when I am compiling some
software. I guess it is a feature when it overheats. Other than that it
works fine (and has been on 99.99% of the time for over 6 months).
Any suggestions on how I can get it to run slower? I am guessing if there
is a way to make it slower it wouldn't overheat.
I know I can build on another system.
Also is there any way to get the temperature?
I have:
