Seriously. Back up your files and bookmarks to a thumb drive, and totally reinstall. Download the Lenovo driver/software tool for your specific machine. If your machine is still crashing, it's a hardware problem. Heat should not crash any modern Intel processor, just cause thermal throttling.

I agree with this. Don't install any "cleanup" or "speedup" software, most if it is just there to spy on you. Windows updates its own drivers.

Generally speaking, a laptop should be able to deal with high ambient temperatures. My suspicion is that this is either a hardware fault (needs replacement under warranty, nothing you can do) or software corruption (reformate with a clean copy of Windows).
Open Windows Event Viewer, expand "Custom Views", and select "Administrative Events". When it bluescreens, there will be a code associated with the particular way it crashed (not just that it was the kernel). This is an old BSOD code list and many of them may not apply anymore, but it might give you a lead on what exactly is failing. My opinion though, this is something Lenovo should fix. A computer should not crash. I've had PCs run continually for the better part of a decade without a reboot or a crash.
