What does this shit even mean?
have you tried monitoring the system temperatures (and voltages)? leave gpu-z and/or openhardwaremonitor running in the background while using the computer and check the max temps and minimum voltages.

>have you tried monitoring the system temperatures
this. a lot of systems will simply shut down if the processor overheats.
something else you might want to check is the power socket it's plugged into. i once had an entire row of desktop machines at work that would shut down at random, and when i checked the power sockets they were plugged in to, they were delivering about half the voltage they should have been.
definitely look into a temp monitoring program though.

That you get blue screens.
These are mostly caused by a driver not doing what it is supposed to (other than programs drivers operate very close to the core/kernel of the OS so unlike programs them crashing or misbehaving can crash the whole system) or a physical hardware defect/emergency shutdown because temps.
Modern processors have a safety routine where when detecting dangerously high temperatures they shut down before they could get destroyed. Checking temps is recommended, only if that was negative THEN you should look for defective components or drivers.

if you have some time op, check the wall socket too. sometimes an ungrounded connection might cause random shutdown/resets

overheating wouldn't cause a bluescreen, it would just cause the machine to shut off.
Run chkdsk. see if it comes up with anything, if so its your hdd is bad.
If not, put an arch linux iso on a usb keydrive with rufus, then boot from it and choose "memtest86+" from the boot options. Let it run and if you see errors in red it means your memory is fucked, try running it with one stick at a time and then the other if it still bsods to isolate which stick is bad, and so on and so forth..
If memtest gives no errors after about 2 minutes and chkdsk comes up clean, its safe to say its not your ram or hdd. Try swapping video cards or using onboard video and see if it still bsod's.

Go to that minidump file and either analyze it yourself or use various online tools to do it.
If it points to a particular driver (typically something ending in .sys), google that driver, figure out what it is (graphics, network, sound, etc) and then remove it through device manager and install an updated version from the manufacturer's website.
