For the past two days I have been attempting to solve a problem with Minecraft, a game breakingly bad one. Every time starts normally, no (out of the normal) lag, no difficulty connecting, no black screens. However, the game tends to crash my computer at random. No particular action causes it, in fact, sometimes inaction with Minecraft running in the background is enough. What happens is I'll be playing, then the entire screen goes black, sometimes with gray or white pinstripes. In order to use my computer again I have to shut it down. Ctrl+Alt+Del doesn't work, Alt+F4 doesn't work, the Windows key doesn't work, and I can't even get a proper report for this.
For the record, I'm running Windows 7 64 bit on an HP Pavilion dv7. I've checked for all updates for both Java and my Video Card Drivers. Overall, I've had no luck.
I've sadly been unable to find any other reports of bugs of this kind. Mine seems to be a unique problem, which seems to indicate it is mainly my computer causing these ****-ups, however I have not encountered a problem like this before with any other program.
just try to reinstall minecraft off of mc.net. mine used to crash before too and when i reinstalled it seemed to get fixed. your saves will not be destroyed in the proccess.

I should have noted that I tried this already. I even deleted everything in %AppData% and deleted and redownloaded the executable. Still nothing has worked.
I have the same problem, computer just randomly crashes/restarts at different points in the game, whether it be at menu screen, 5mins into a game or 1 hour into a game.
I only recently got back into the game, last time I played was beta 1.6, but with the latest release the game is unplayable.
My computer specs are:
i5 2500k
8gb ram
gtx570
I run all other games no problem, so its not an overheating issue.

Glad to see I'm not alone, sad to see I'm without fix yet. Hopefully the next release. I've got a wicked seed to play with.
I'm having minecraft completely shut my computer down dead or occasionally blue screen it. No reason my Pc should be overheating. relatively new PC. The only time this happens is when minecraft is running.

That is the weirdest thing because 2 days ago it started happening to me the same way you described it. If i remember that was the same day i downloaded a new Java...
I have had the same trouble im playing minecraft and then suddenly my pc screen will go black, but the computer is still on and all of the light are on but the only way to fix is to restart pc.
i have tried many fixes for this problem but to no success.

It could be better, but it's not bad enough to warrant an upgrade.
