The GPU is also running at 75C. It's trying to keep cool. Try the FGLRX drivers, but be aware that you can severely break your system.

To be sure, installing fglrx is no picnic. But there's a ubuntu guide and an archlinux guide. I always use the Package Manager Synaptic and just pull in the packages listed on the ubuntu or arch linux guides. Using the package manager, with a list of the several required packages-- after reading the tutorials --and you may be ok.

I'm shopping for an Intel board to replace my ATI p.o.s. at the moment.
