Heat only causes bsods because of an issue of clean power through the cpu.
but voltage and heat are a spiraling chain of hell, with heat making voltage unstable and voltage increasing heat.
Of course, everything regarding heat we've just posted about is for intel processors, which run cooler on average than amd.
AMD mobile chips run very hot.
Actually, the bsod problem on that setup is more likely the version of AMD sata drivers used with Windows 7 SP1. I had to hunt down an updated version for my SIL's laptop after upgrading it to SP1. The catalyst mobility package includes an outdated sata and south bridge driver.
