Ok so here is the story.

I have a HP Pavillion ZE4900 Laptop. I've had it for ehhh 3 years.

Reciently it was overheating alot, thanks to my geek buddy i realized my fan wasn't working. After calling a few places and getting quoted too much money i decided to take matters into my own hands.
Sooooo i took my laptop apart (BIG pain in the ass) The fan was so full of dust, and thanks to my beautiful Bella... cat hair. So i clean it out, compressed air and all, put it all back together ( with the exception of one screw i can't figure out where it goes. ) I turn the computer on, and it seems fine.
15 min later, it dies, the fan wasn't spinning.
So i go to Circut City... i got a targus notebook chill pad. Works great. All of a sudden my fan starts to work again.
So now, with the fan and chill pad my computer is doing fabulous.

OR SO I THOUGHT!

Yesterday i was online and i got a blue screen that said something to this effect:
( BLUE SCREEN )
It says something about if this is the first time restart the computer, which is stupid because it doesnt let you restart, and it restarts on its own.
Beginning dump of physical memory.
Physical memory dump complete........

It happened last night for the first time. Then i was watching a movie and it did it again. At this point i just shut it off.
This morning i put the computer back on and other then my active desktop needed to be restored it looked fine.

anyone?

tina, everyone is giving you bad advice so far.

your blue screens are happening because of your fan. over time they can go bad, and need to be replaced. all that dust and cat hair get into the bearings and wear them down to the point that the fans will no longer work, or start to make funny noises. the chill pad, can help a little bit, but its not a replacement for a proper working internal fan. take a look on ebay for a new replacement fan for your laptop (they are model specific). youll basically have to take apart the laptop again, unplug and unscrew the old fans and replace them with new ones. it should fix your problem.

Actually there are many things that can cause a memory dump. Seeing as nothing has been ruled out so far no one has given bad advice.

-You can check the driver, some do have issues- I know because I deal with them.
- You can go into your BIOS (I believe F10 or F8 on startup) and perform a memory test. If that is bad (which I doubt) then you found your problem.

Is your fan coming on and off sparatically and is it making strange noises? If so then it is probably your fan

None of this is bad advice, thank you Lagos.
