Hi!

You probably don't need to open it. What needs to be done can be done from
the outside.

Look for fan vent areas on the computer. You will probably find them at the
sides and rear. They may have what appear to be "radiators" behind them.
Using a clean pressurized source of air to do so, blow through them
backwards. A lot of lint will probably come out of the system. This is why
it is getting so hot--those radiators plug up over time and lose their
effectiveness. Left unchecked, the problem will get worse and eventually
hardware damage will be the result!
