Solution
could be a software problem, you can use a linux live CD to boot into linux and see if computer crashes, or get another hard drive, do a fresh install of windows and see if it bluescreens.

or it could be a hardware problem (more likely with old hardware), for example leaking motherboard capacitors (easy do determine by visual inspection)
