Open control-panel,administration,event viewer.Locate the event/warning
when it crashed,click on the url,this opens kb help/support,usually with a
fix,or answer to it.

Another place to check is overheating of the CPU. Make sure you can hear
the little fan running inside the case before going to bed.
