Use 
hw.acpi.thermal.user_override=1
in sysctl.conf to allow override of thermal settings. Now you can set custom 
_PSV, _HOT and _CRIT. Worked well for me on my previous HP Pavilion dv6 series 
laptop. 
More complex resolution of overheating problem - consider to sell HP asap and 
get any other laptop. HP totaly failed on cooling on almost all models, they 
are all hothothot.
