All sorts of things can cause this Leon.


You need to work out what's causing it to fix it.


There may be a an error code on the screen. If so, check that on the Microsoft website.


My computer did it for ages. It turned out it was the CPU getting hot (sometimes it would fail without the Blue Screen of Death as well). I fixed it by replacing the finned CPU cooler with a water cooler, but in hind sight probably only needed to replace the thermal paste between the CPU and the cooler. After the event I found out that the thermal paste dries out over time, and it is recommended that it is replaced every 2 years. Who ever heard of that?



No idea if a hot CPU is the problem you have, but if you want to check it, I used Speccy software. CPU should run <50°C higher then that may be a problem.
