I bought Syx computer about a month ago and put a video card and power supply in it myself. At first when I put the new power supply and video card in it wouldn't boot up and my heart stopped. I did a few things, like take the connectors out and reconnect them, turn the power button on and off on the power supply, turn the power button on and off on the power strip and several other things and it worked. I did so many things I wasn't even sure which fixed it.
Anyway, so then I booted up my video games and have been using it for over a month with gaming and had absolutely zero issues. Worked perfectly.
Today, just minutes ago while composing a long E-mail (Which I rarely do.) my computer just froze up. I hit ctrl+alt+delete and my computer made a beeping sound and restarted. When it booted back up I got this message.
Your Computer Has recovered from an Unexpected Shut Down.
I wasn't to concerned at first, then I hit details and it said

I don't confess to know what it means, but when I saw the 'BlueScreen' part my heart dropped knowing that can be a hardware issue.
I never saw a blue screen when it restarted.
While typing this I just got a windows report it says:
Address a problem with NVIDIA Graphics Driver
NVIDIA Graphics Driver has stopped working 1 time(s), last occuring on 2/22/2012 4:10 PM. Steps are available for addressing this problem.
Is it likely a software or a hardware issues? I would really appreciate some input from some more knowledgeable then me.
Update:Also, I wasn't playing video games or anything graphically intensive when it happened. Again, just composing an E-mail.

Seems to me that you need an updated NVIDIA graphics driver.
I have been having BSOD problems on my laptop and thought it may be an old USB stick failing but I also updated to the latest video drivers and apart from no more BSODs I have much improved graphics capability.
Do a google search for your cards driver.
Or just try the update option via control panel and device manager.
