this doesn't happen all the time, but when I turn my computer on I get this

I just reboot and then it will be fine

Any suggestions?

Id say its graphics card problem, check its seated properly, maybe take it out and reseat it just to be on the safe side.

Use CPU-z (can be downloaded easily and its free) that will tell you your mobo make, you'll need the main board tab, also what make gfx card?

I think i had that once when i forgot to plug in the extra power connector to my graphics card.

Although i noticed in your other thread that you have 2 different makes of ram running, might be an idea to try with just 1 stick until you get a new matched kit.
