Funny.... I just had, probably, my first win7 blue screen, too.
But mine was related to the graphics driver... there was a line about nv[something].dll... that nv tells you it's about nVidia.
If you rebooted and everything seems normal, just proceed as normal.

If you don't have any decent antivirus software, I advise the free Avira... av-comparatives claims that it's the best of the free ones.

I'm using AVG free.

Fuck it could be the fan... my laptop is rather hot.... is it cooler to place it on top of bed matress or bed duvet covers? (They are my 2 options).

Many times it is a bad driver somewhere.

What were you doing when it happened?  See if you can replicate the problem.

Keep that thing away from fabric!  No mattresses, pillows, etc.   
I have mine elevated on a wire shelf, so that air can always circulate around the vents.  (Repair guy's advice.)
If you have to have it near a bed, find a way to prop it on a small wooden shelf - metal tray - heck, even a shipping box is better than a mattress.
Laptops need circulation, they need to be kept as cool as is reasonably possible.  Overheating is BAD.

Run AVG then let that thing breathe!    Rolleyes

Evie, that was going to be my first suggestion.

1) hardware failure
2) failed memory chip
3) corrupt ram due to malware
4) failing harddisk

The modern cpu's will stop themselves from burning out. It may be recoverable.
Let it cool down for an hour.

Turn it back on, it should be ok, run your scan then before it heats up again if you can.
Likewise, confirm the fan is working or not working. This is probably the most important step at this stage.
No God, No fear.

Go into "My Computer", right click on your primary drive, go to properties, and choose to do a full scan and make sure to check the option to automatically fix file system errors.

No, that will worsen the heating issue.

Is cardboard from a shoebox preferable to mattress? that's all I can find right now.
