Right, my trusty laptop of about two years has started playing up, pictures describe this well so i'll make a story using them (Apologies for any sideways images).
I'll turn the laptop on, browse for a few minutes, then bam this happens:
After a few seconds it will either just hang on that, or most commonly go to a distorted blue screen, with the error: NMI: Parity check/ memory parity error
The screen distorting probably points towards a graphics card issue (8600M GS i think is mine) or after a bit of research the memory associated with it. But i can't really find anything solid, especially since i can restart the laptop and use it fine for a while.
The only thing i've done significantly different before this happened was install my iPhone.
Beer vouchers are at hand
Thanks in advance!
-PS its a Sony Vaio vgn-fz31s
