Try changing the ucodes or if it's a Sagem box try running it on gbox.
The freezing has got fook all to do with overheating.

people have recommended that taking the modem out of the box helps reduce heat....didn't help mine though

try an img with the gbox emu, using evo to update keys...

Have a look at this thread mate, I had the same problem but now all sorted using Lincsat's image (with a bit of tweaking). Any questions give me a shout.
