Have you added hardware recently? Will it boot into safe mode (press F8 on boot)? Have you recently added any new software/windows updates?

If it can boot in safe mode, first thing disable the automatic reboot in Control Panel/System/Advanced/Boot and Repair Settings. Next time you'll get a blue screen with a number after STOP, something like "0x0000001A" with "1A" being the error code. Can you tell us what error code you're getting ?
