This is likely to be caused by a hardware problem problem. This problem might be caused by a thermal issue.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.

Solution
Most often cause by incorrect voltage/clock applied to a CPU. Mostly due to overclocking, overheating sometimes due to power fluctuations to the voltage to the CPU. Sometimes cause by a bad overclocking software drivers installed on the machine.

fix: make sure your fans are working, update your BIOS, reset your BIOS to defaults if there is not a update to install.
You might also update the CPU chipset drivers directly from the CPU vendor. look here for intel drivers:
