Default Fluid fills overfill...what is wrong???

Tonight i started to see my temp rise so i pulled over. When i popped my hood i notice the fluid was sprayed mostly on top, passenger side. Looked a little closer and noticed that my overfill was full. The fan comes on. Now could my water pump have went and took a **** on me??? Any help would be great...thanks in advance...i have a dx motor boosted....

thats what it sounds like, or you could have a blockage somewhere too that could be preventing coolant from flowing properly

how many miles to you have on your car? have you ever changed the water pump?
