Help!
My computer is good at minecraft running at about 60FPS but after about 30 minutes it gets hot and goes down to about 2 FPS at locks up minecraft. Someone said my computer was overheating so I bought a cooling pad and it still does the same thing just less hot! Please Help!
Here are my system specs!
Intel® Core ™2 Duo CPU T9600 @2.80GHz 2.80GHz 8GB of RAM
Graphics card
NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M
Tell me if you need to know anything else!

try getting a 64-bit version of java, even with good computers java can act wierd and cause them to lock up minecraft. If it is over heating try and get a seperate fan and blow it on it to keep it cool. Oh, and is the whole computer locking up or just minecraft. It wouldn't be the overheating problem if only minecraft locked up.
well to be honest it all depends on you computers cooling system and how good it works. I had two laptops and only the one had issues over heating while playing minecraft because the cooling fan wasn't that great.

Kicking but and taking names, but I'm all out of bubble gum.....Thing are about to get ugly.
That would only be appropriate if he is running a 64 bit OS. If he is running a 64 bit OS and only has 32 bit java then yes, definitely get 64 bit java.
OP have you tried getting the mod optifine? It might help to reduce load on your machine so that it can run cooler. Also have you tried to lower game settings to see if the fps issue still happens? It sounds like your system is just overheating and you need to reduce your load or you're going to fry your laptop at some point.
Oh and if it helps my brother has the same exact computers and programs and his doesn't lag as much or get hot! I have optifine and yes I have a 64bit OS.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
Also, my cat just loves to sit on the fan - at least, when it's cold outside.
