    Start with an antiviurs scan
    Download and scan with malwarebytes.

    I am preparing additional instructions, while you do the above.


    Run this test
    SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker
    and this

    RAM - Test with Memtest86+[2]=Performance Maintenance

    Go to event viewer and look for errors.

    im running kaspersly internet security 2011 - no viruses on full scan
    (and it was installed first after win7 installation and again no viruses on full scan)
    SFC test - all good...
    memtest - all good... (although latency it was showing 8-5-5-15 when it is set for 5-5-5-15 if that makes any difference)

    in event viewer where to look and what to look for? (sorry, never used it before ;o( )

    thank you very much for your time and your help in this matter...

    Eventually I solved this problem. Please don't laugh...

    It was old thermal paste on the processor causing overheating and once under load crashing it.
