Without further specifics it is a bit difficult to troubleshoot.  I think I
have experienced something similar like this in the past, where clicking a
link would just lead to a blank white page. If I duplicated the page, then
the error wouldn't happen for some time but would then return later, and I
seem to recall that the nocache on the page used to help.

In your php.ini file look for the filepath value in 'error_log', it might be
something like C:\Windows\Temp\php-error.log and click around your site to
catch the 500 error, after the error happens, check the php-error.log file
and report back on the specific error it says.  The first instance of
'error_log' might be commented out, but search for the next and third
instance  as that was my experience to find the error log filepath in
php.ini.
