Alienware Aurora Thermal Controller Crashing

Hello, I have an Alienware Aurora.  It has been working great for nearly a year.  However, within the last week it has been booting up to a crashed thermal controller message.  The little alien head on the front of the computer is blinking orange and red when it normally blinks blue and green as I have set it up to do.

If I reboot, sometimes it works correctly again and then it's good for the rest of the day till I reboot.  Sometimes it takes 3 or 4 reboots to get it to not error out.  It is very frustrating.  I've read a similar type issue here: http://en.community.dell.com/owners-club/alienware/f/3746/p/19368974/19838583.aspx#19838583 But, I didn't see any resolution that I could use.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I've added screenshots of the errors I'm getting below to see if they might help.
