occasionaly I get blue screen and have to restart, checking temp indicates 174 degrees, is it a cooling problem? It happens about once every 2 weeks

Hi

I take it the 174 degrees is Fahrenheit not Celsius.
Which would make it 78 degrees Celsius which is to hot for most processors. Chips like the AM2 socket AMD chips can run that hot.

Could you download speccy from  https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy/download
This will create a report of the computer and you then paste a link to the report here by selecting file, publish snapshot and copy the link to your post.

Also if you run Blue screen viewer from here https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/blue_screen_view.html

You can get more info on what is causing the blue screens. And copy the details here .
