Did you try to set 2x msaa?
if you've been able to play the whole time and it just started then it prob not the cpu, and if your getting a blue screen that's kinda weird too. Sounds like something with drivers maybe, I would reinstall the game, and update gpu driver first for now and go from there.
Tried re-install the game still no help. But when I changed everything to the lowest setting in config, i was able to get in the game for about 5 min before it crashed again. :(
What graphics card is it you have, is it an overclocked one or have you done any overclocking to it yourself?
Also could you try and monitor the temps of the card while you play.
Finally was able to play but had to replace graphics card. Apparently the temp was up in the 90s C. So a word of advice for everyone is make sure you monitor your card temp.
p.s. Thanks to Loth for pointing out that might be the problem.
I Have a 260 that hated heat (70c+ it dies almost exactly the same as what your describing) once I got a rather OTT custom cooling system working I was able to get it heavily oc'd and play anything an still could i guess.
Might be wroth resitting the cooler and testing it on other games at full load and such, see if it can be reused as a sub card or to run a 2nd/3rd screen.
