What USB devices do you have connected?
Remove all that are not necessary, this means nothing connected to your laptop.
Un-install HWiNFO32, it's not loading correctly.
Which anti-virus are you using?

Description:
Processor 3 in group 0 exposes the following power management capabilities:
Idle state type: ACPI Idle (C) States (3 state(s))
Performance state type: ACPI Performance (P) / Throttle (T) States
Nominal Frequency (MHz): 2001

This is indicating your CPU is overheating, this is very common for a laptop with those specs.
Cleanout the dust from the cooling system.
Be sure the laptop has good ventilation at all times, never set it on any fabric/material surface including your legs.
A lot of these, can be caused by a driver or the CPU overheating.

Also a lot of app crashes but, no indication of which one.
Run the System File Checker:
How to Run the "SFC /SCANNOW" Command at Boot or in Windows 8
Run it 3 times with re-boots after each run.
This is a Seven Forums tutorial, it will be the same for W8.
Driver Verifier - Enable and Disable
Driver Verifier runs in the background, "testing" drivers for bugs. If it finds one, a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) will result; the corresponding dump file will hopefully show the faulty driver.
Run for 24 hours or if it crashes several times you can disable it.
Use your computer as you normally would, although expect frequent BSODs if there are driver issues. If the system doesn't crash after 24 hours, disable driver verifier.
This will slow down your computer, it's stressing the drivers trying to make them fail.
It's important to use your computer normally, this will help find the offending driver.
