Make sure the air vents are not blocked and the cooling fan is working.
Set your laptop on a hard smooth surface to avoid blocking the vents.
Use some can air to blow out the vents, don't set your laptop directly in your lap or on a pillow because this can block air flow and cause over heating.
Enjoy!!

Actually would his computer not sound a few bleeps if that would be the case? as my pc's and laptops will make a bleeping sound if its overheating, or if the fan is not working.

Because the problem you are describing leads me to believe that either:
1: You either changed hardware.
2: You either changed the BIOS settings.
3: Your volume shadow copy got corrupted. (Which can be caused by multiple things)
4: Your windows boot loader got damaged. (which also can be caused by a million things.)
Obviously this is a wild guess as you did not provide hard data so thats why i am asking.
If you got any means of providing more info then please do so.
And if the options above such as save mode fail then you might wanna consider trying to access your hard drive using a second computer so you can at least see the internal logs and you also could scan it for malware using your second system.
Anyway try to get as much info as you can and if you get any errors displayed then please post them here in the forum so we can try to figure out whats causing this and more importantly how to fix it. (If fixable)
Cheers

What programs are currently running when it crashes?
According to the logs on BlueScreenView, mfehidk.sys (McAfee VirusScan) is responsible for the crash. iTunes is also having issues but I don't think it caused the system to crash, it was just the program that crashed.
Might try uninstalling McAfee and then use the Removal Tool reboot and see if you have any other crashes, if not that was the problem. Wait before installing another antivirus until you know the crash problem is solved, just don't download any files until you have an antivirus installed. After a long enough period of time with no crashes you may select a different antivirus and install it. Go directly to the vendors website to download your new antivirus.
If so then it is back to the drawing board.
Thanks.
Normally just I.E or when sitting on side idle nothing too intense. The normal mcafee and windows live security program etc i may uninstall mcafee and reinstall as have had problems with it before crashing and not running properly and see where that gets me! Thanks again!
Does this have any affect in cpu or board?? Is it still possible to fix?? If so, how??Did you change hardware? Like memory? or did you change the BIOS settings?
