Pentium M Idle Temp

So I recently inherited a laptop from my sister and it seemed to be running a little warm. Its an HP dv1000, with a Pentium M 1.6 GHz, a 4200 RPM 60 gig Toshiba harddrive. I finally found a program that would let me see the temp my processor was running at. My processor idles at around 53C, or 114 F, and my harddrive idles at around 43C, or 111 F. This seems warm to me, do I need to send it in for repairs?
 
53C is way hot, but not outside of safe temps. I would send it in to get it checked out, it may just be dirty or have a busted fan - but it's not something immediately necessary. That temperature won't hurt anything, it's just really hot 🙂
