I do not see exactly what processor you have (apart from that it is an AMD AthlonXP ... probably one of the genre or something). This temperature, although is relatively high, & is not completely abnormal if the temperature processor is in full charge. It will perhaps be necessary to go for some cooling system.

it is necessary to change the CPU fan asap.

It can also be of a thermal paste which is old under the processor & you have to change it.
