Laptop crashes, Graphics card issues?

Occasionally and without any perceivable pattern the screen will flash and then recover about 15 seconds later. Recently when I play games it will run flawlessly and without a hitch, and then crash to a black screen without warning and make a LOUD and alarming oscillating noise that sounds like a bad, wordless version of those things that people use when their voice boxes are taken out. I have to hard reboot to make it stop. The graphics card is a geforce 9800M gts. also regardless of if it is recovering from a crash every time I reboot my computer it gives me a message that says

There was a problem starting yujcp.dll
The specified module could not be found.

I don't know if this last is related because I have been unable to find anything pertaining to that dll.
 
Sound more like a harddrive issue. Graphics cards have no moving or running parts, but Harddrives do.

My laptop just died and it was the graphics card. No warning, no sounds, just black screen. It boots up and all, but with no screen, its useless. You cant repair them either. Well at least not cost effectively anyway.

If you have another laptop harddrive, you can swap them out really easy.
