So my computer keeps randomly shutting down and if the screen saver comes on then its freezes and when i turn windows back on it says it recovered from a fatal error and then when i send the error report this is what it comes up with

Error type Windows stop error (A message appears on a blue screen with error code information)
Solution available? Yes
What does this error mean? You received this message because a device driver installed on your computer caused the Windows operating system to stop unexpectedly. This type of error is referred to as a "stop error." A stop error requires you to restart your computer.
Cause A video adapter device driver
