Possibly a hardware problem. Have you been messing around in your BIOS or
have your machine overclocked? If so go to standard. How many memory modules
do you have? How much memory do you have? Try removing/reseating them or
swapping the positions round. Try different modules or one on its own if
possible.
 
All the memory is what came in it originally 2 years ago, I have only added a
graphics card and soudblaster card and that was over a year ago and no
messages all this time time until now. No overclocking I would not know how
to do that and no new memory added

Did you install *any* third-party programs recently (not necessarily malware).

IIRC this (wild branch to unaddressable memory) is a symptom of
DLL Hell caused by people installing third-party programs
which installed their own version of common .dll.
Unfortunately the most common cases happened so long ago
that precise likely details are not fresh in my mind and of course
since the crash address is random it is impossible to search
for details that way.

If you want to try to diagnose this you are going to have to be
more forthcoming with details. Essentially the same analysis
as that suggested by Frank is required but with a slightly different
hypothesis: instead of malware I posit broken third-party program
installation procedures.

If you don't want to diagnose this but have installed new things recently
(in any fashion) which have uninstall procedures try uninstalling them
to see if your symptom changes.


Good luck
