No BSOD, Just crashing at random times (W7 Ulti 64-bit)

There is no pattern for this, but every couple of hours my PC just reboots. The screen goes black and then it just pops to the BIOS loading screen. No idea what happens. I do get a "Windows has Crashed" dialouge with the following:

BCCode: 124
BCP1: 0000000000000000
BCP2: FFFFFA8007CA64A8
BCP3: 0000000000000000
BCP4: 0000000000000000

Any help would be awesome. It's only been happening for a day or two, but I (obviously) want to find a solution

Thanks!

EDIT: Saw it best to include my rig:

AMD FX-6300 @ 4.4GHz (I don't remember overclocking it)
GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3 (Revision 5.0)
G.Skill Ripjaws X 8GB @ 1600MHz
AMD 7970 3GB (XFX DD if it matters)
WD 1TB Caviar Blue
Corsair CX600M

Sounds like an over heating problem. Open your system up while it is running and watch to see if all the fans, especially the CPU fan is running. Also, use a can of air to blow out the CPU heat sink. Make sure that all the case vents are clean and blow out the Power Supply (PSU) and GPU as well (these are areas most people overlook).

All of my temps are fine, and my system was cleaned last week (Filters and dusted), so I don't think this is the issue. Bummer :(

I don't have an extra PSU. Is there some other sort of test I can use to see if it's the issue. I doubt it, but it's worth asking. I don't have a multimeter either

PSUs are very difficult to test. PSUs get sick before they die and they can cause all sorts of symptoms. You can spend weeks trying to diagnose a sick PSU, or you can spend $25 on a cheap PSU to use as a backup/test unit.

Is there a pattern to the reboots? Say like, you are playing a certain game or running a certain program?
