Windows 7 BSOD When Playing Grand Theft Auto 4

[nerfuin13]

I recently bought Grand Theft Auto 4 on my pc, it was working fine for about a week. When I got a blue screen while playing it i kind of bypassed it because it was my first bluescreen on this pc. Then when I went to play it again it bluescreen'd again after about an hour of play or so. It has been really difficult to enjoy a new game when you bluescreen everytime you play it. Please help! It didn't allow me to upload the Minidump file itself so ill upload it in a zip file.
