Windows 7 - Computer is crashing all the time

Computer is crashing all the time

I installed Windows 7 without any problems, and have had it running for a few days with no problems. Then, yesterday, I tried to install MS Office, and halfway done my screen froze. I turned the computer off manually, and restarted, and now, even if I'm not doing anything, it turns itself off just after a little while.

I have run Vista on it before with no problems for over a year, and have done nothing with the hardware.
The computer gets very warm, so I'm thinking it might have to do with overheating, but why??

Noone with any ideas in regards to overheating and how to fix it? I don't want to open my laptop, but all other ideas are most welcome...

OMG that's really serious...

What is your laptop's model? Can you do a BIOS update?

I've seen many cases where a bios update fixes this issue.

Additionally, visit your manufacturer's website and download and install any chipset and graphics related drivers (for VISTA version) for you laptop.

Ok... now I'm worried.
My laptop is a COMPAL FT00.

I've never done a bios update. How do I do that?
