I am using Ubuntu 12.04 on my Intel Core-I7 machine and it heats up terribly. On the other hand, Windows 7 on the same machine works pretty fine.

Are there any fixes or suggestions on how I can overcome this problem?

I recommend trying thermald, this will actively monitor hot thermal zones and will try various methods to try and cool a machine.

Install with:

sudo apt-get install thermald 

For more details, consult the kernel team [thermald][1] reference guide.
