This is a very common problem due to the laptops gfx card is overheating or usually a main board problem, if its still under warranty id call toshiba up and have a word with them and take it in..

I found a workaround for that kind of overheating problem: do something that is processor-intensive. The fan will run more, and therefore keep the card cooler. My laptop only overheats (and crashes) when it is sitting there doing nothing.

I totally agree.

Call Toshiba and have them fix that Acer. It's definitely a safer bet than contacting Acer.

There was a problem with the GPU overheating and causing dry solder joints. Common fix would be to reflow that section of the board.
As for your own overheating... clean it out with a compressed air can or, even better, take it apart and thoroughly clean the fan and heatsinks. Usual caveats apply when you rummage around inside something electrical.
