HP ENVY x360 Laptop - 15-ed0056nr
Microsoft Windows 11

For some time now my computer will force a restart with a blue screen, usually 4 or 5 times, and then the screen goes black and I have to shut it down.  At the same time my laptop overheats.  I've had 2 IT friends take a look and they see nothing wrong.  One of them told me Windows 11 causes alot of this, that he is having the same problem at work.  My warranty expired, of course,  just when this all started.  What should I do?  Thank you inadvance.
