[SOLVED]Kernel panics

Hi. I have a hell lot of kernel panics in my Arch install. They mostly happen when I use for example "lunch" command in my Android source tree, but sometimes even when I'm using just Firefox for 15-20 minutes. I don't think it's kernel version related, because I was testing various Ubuntu live cds, same situation. In dmesg I read that cpu temp was high, so I decided to clean cpu fan and HWMon in Windows tells that I have 50-60°C on each core. But kernel panics still happen. On Windows, hopefully or not, everything seems to be fine. And another note - kernel panics are more common in Awesome or spectrwm than in XFCE. But in Unity on Ubu they happened too.
My PC specs: Intel C2D E6300(without overclock or anything else), mb Asus P5LD2SE, GeForce 7300GT, 3GB of ram - 2x512M Goodram and 2x1G Kingston.
I don't know where to find any solution for it. I'll post dmesg later if it will be needed. Also, please tell me if any other logs can provide some information, so I will take a look at them and post here too.
Thanks in advance.

I have done that when I was cleaning CPU fan, forgot to write.

Re: [SOLVED]Kernel panics

BIOS update to 1301 version might have solved this problem, 2 "lunch" commands and no panics
