  back on topic :
  And no, I never overclocked anything.
  Not sure whether it's hot, never changed any settings or installed new programs.

  it's either ur computer problem, or a problem with gameguard detecting possibly suspicious hacking programs.
  
  If you did not use any hacking tools, it may mean that your computer has some adwares/spywares/viruses hiding under a rootkit that gameguard may deem as suspicious.
  
  This is especially so if you have restarted your computer and this thing happened again when you play maple...

  OK. Do this in order to note the error down.
  
  1. Right click My Computer and select Properties.
  2. Select the Advanced tab.
  3. Under Startup and Recovery, click the Settings button.
  4. Under System Failure, untick the Automatically Restart box.
  5. Click OK all the way to apply the settings.
  
  When you get the blue screen of death, note down the error.
  
  There are two parts which are important:
  
  0X8 alphanumeric
  File name if exist
  
  The 0X8 alphanumeric looks something like this: 0X0000008E
