Blue screen of death, please help

[JayT]

I keep getting the folowing error message, which sometimes comes and goes,
when pressing any key or it will just hang. I dont need to be doing anything
in particular, it even comes on a few minutes after the desktop has loaded.

Error Message

A FATAL EXCEPTION OD HAS OCCURRED AT 0028:C00140DB IN VXD VMM (01) + 000130DB
THE CURRENT APPLICATION WILL BE TERMINATED

Any help to resolve this would be gratefully appreciated.
