    The list of possibilities for this error is quite long

    Take a look at this it may help

    I agree with Jim, this could be caused by a number of things which makes troubleshooting that much harder.

    If you are overclocking, stop! At least until this is resolved.

    When did this problems start? Did you recently make any hardware or driver changes/updates? If started in just the last couple days, you could try System Restore to a point just before it started.

    Is the interior of the computer clean of heat trapping dust?
