Download the service manual here - http://dell.to/2qZ05Jr - open the chassis and clean the air vents and fan assembly with a small vacuum cleaner or a can of compressed air. Reapply the thermal grease for the heatsink.
If the overheating persists, then replace the fan assembly.
My system fan has been making a weird noise for a while now and it usually shows Error Code M1001 Fan Malfunction on boot, ever since then my system has been hanging and giving me different issues.
I would appreciate if you can help me with this problem thank you

You can try going into the BIOS/setup and clear the System Logs and see if that makes any difference. I would also suggest updating the BIOS:

You could also try running the diagnostics (hold down the Fn key whilst powering the system on) to see if it picks up any errors.
If the message still appears, the only thing left is to replace the motherboard.
