...same here. I had similar problems for some time and I too thought it was
heat related. A quick search on Microsoft's knowledge base (I'm using
Windows 2000) threw up instructions of how to track down the problem -
turned out to be a driver. One that Windows Update had suggested I
install!!

My money is on either a problem with memory, or a device driver - what
Video card and driver is it using?  I had something similar with an
NVidia card, using their NView multiple desktop feature.  Disabling
that resulted in a much more stable machine.  Try installing the
latest certified drivers for your hardware.
