    Anyone can help? :( Also I set my laptop to hibernate on close screen, and just earlier I got another hard crash from my laptop in which I had to restart. Thing is, laptop was in my backpack and I probably didn't notice it for a good 10-20 min, and it got hot as heck..

    It depends have you recently put new software or hardware in it lately? Also you should really turn off the laptop if you put it in your backpack. It got really hot due to no ventilation.

    Also, a restore would be great if the BSoD persists.

    Well when it's hibernating, its pretty much off o.o, anyway the only software are Steam games and BF3, along with Skype, AIM, etc, nothing really out of the ordinary.

    I usually use hibernate but I would try to figure out what program or schedule is turning the computer on as I have experienced that and will turn the computer on. So if there's a schedule when it's in hibernation it might turn it on.
    Usually it's the windows schedules that would do it.
    Do you make sure it is off when you put it on your backpack or do you just close it and put it on backpack?

    I would suggest to search for the .dmp file and it should show up. Look for the Type: Crash Dump file and the date to make sure it's that one.
