Run a full virus-scan (update your definitions first). If that doesn't fix it, and if you haven't installed any new device drivers recently, it could be a hardware issue (overheating, problem with the hard drive or memory, etc.).

It runs and then it crashes about every 15 mins or so, so it won't complete the virus scan.

I'm really not sure what's causing it, it's been very reliable up until today.

Try to run your maintenance in Safe Mode.

Well i've removed the battery.

See if it still crashes now. Running just on AC power.
