I have a Windows 7 computer with this hardware:
The PC works fine but Windows crashes after some time (sometimes after an hour, sometimes after 4 hours, etc). I can see it because when I open an application, it hangs and doesn't open, and if I click on the start button, explorer crashes. After that, if I wait it goes to blue screen and re-crashes (never reboots): I have to shutdown and restart the PC.
Does anyone else have this kind of problem? I can't understand what it is and why it happens. I thought it could be that the space left on the SSD was too small but it has 17GB free.

UPDATE
HWMonitor screenshot:
0xF4 means a critical process has been terminated. It can be either software or hardware and if you upload your DMP file to Skydrive or another file sharing service we can tell you which.
In the interim I would run a system file check (to check for software) and a CHKDSK to check the HD
Please run a system file check (SFC)
All instructions are in our Wiki article below... Should you have any questions please ask us.
Seems like your problem is definitely the SSD overheating due to whatever reason (even if it's just due to a faulty sensor it might shut off to prevent damage despite there being no real reason to do so).
128 °C is definitely far too hot. The temperature should be somewhere around 30-40 °C based on air flow etc.
If possible, remove it from the case and place it on a surface that's able to withstand that temperature easily (like a pan) and see whether it's still getting that hot (don't touch it, use some thermometer).
