Windows 7 has a code, if you look at the bottom of the screen there is a code. For example that pic's code is 0x00000007B. Next time a blue screen come up take a pic of that and google it later, it should say why and how to fix it.

You can try going under Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Event Viewer, go under the Windows Logs->System on the left pane and see if there are any logged system errors around the time you crashed.
