Sorry to re-open but I wanted to include one more detail - either a recent update fixed this for me, or a recent change I made to my BIOS settings (changing my fan speed from "normal" to "turbo" in my motherboard BIOS) has made me unable to reproduce this hang, even after long periods of scrolling complex maps in Google Maps. I can definitely raise the temperature nearly 10C by doing this, but with the fans on turbo (and this only seems to make it slightly louder) the hang does not occur. Hopefully this will help anyone else with these issues - always try to cool the processor as much as possible!
