Spontaneous reboots and/or blue screens are almost always caused by either bad drivers or hardware issues, of which overheating is only one of many potential problems. Hardware can fail in many other ways. However, the error code points more to a driver issue than a hardware issue. Fantasy, did you remove just the fan off of the CPU or the whole heatsink? If you removed the heatsink, please be careful reinstalling it. Do not place uneven pressure when reattaching it or you may crack the core and also don't use too much thermal paste between the sink and the CPU.
