What would cause a random spike in temp?

my normal idle temp is about 41c, but lately my computer has been resetting (about once a day) and when i get back into bios, it says the cpu temp is 68c (my warning temp) and the heatsink feels super hot.

the only thing i can think of is the fan is starting to die and it randomly gives out?

board is the NF7-s rev#2, cpu is 2500+ mobile at 200x12, Alpha pal 8045 with a panaflo L1 80mm fan, 2x512meg pc3200 shikaram, D26 black manta bios, Win XP pro SP2.

mobo voltages are: cpu=1.65 / 3.3v=3.41 / 12v=11.96 ...ITs a thermaltake 480W brand new
