Did you try a Google Search

Have you tried a Google Search and also have you tried to update the drivers
to the latest?

I am so glad you posted this. Last week my Dell M1330 (after working fine for
6 months) started to freeze randomly, then the screen goes black,. Once this
happened, I would have to press the power button to first turn the machine
off, wait then press the power button to turn the machine on. However,
instead of re-booting the laptop screen would put of vertical lines of all
different colors and a smudge pattern across the screen. One out of ten times
the computer would manage to re-boot. The other nine times, I would have to
power down, and try again, often 15 times in a row before the machine would
boot up VISTA.

After spending considerable time on the events log (when the computer was
running) I noticed an error nvlddmkm - display driver stopped responding.

I spent a day on the phone with Dell and they assured me it was a software
problem and I would have to wait till Microsoft put out a fix. After going
over all the diagnostics tests, even ran the long 2 hour full test, they all
passed. The gfx card has never installed properly on the laptop, and when I
try to install the latest driver, I get a warning saying, "VISTA has not been
detected, driver will not install". I get this error message from both the
Dell driver downloads and the NVidia driver downloads. This computer only
runs VISTA.

Since Dell assured me that my problems were software issues, I made sure all
my driver updates and VISTA updates were current from the Dell website and
Microsoft website, and any other update that I could see necessary, only the
NVidia driver and the BIOS flash (too scared to do in case the computer
freezes while doing it) were done. This did NOT fix anything.

I have gone through and uninstalled drivers, in an attempt to get back to
the date where the computer was working, even though the log indicated no
updates had happened since the first crash. This did NOT change anything.

If my problems are due to overheating, how do I know if it has damaged the
computer?
How do I convince Dell that this is a hardware problem (since it passed all
the hardware tests) and not a driver problem (if it is)?

This issue is a hardware issue and most likely it is your Corsair RAM modules that are causing it. Replace your Corsair ram modules with some others that you have hanging around or borrow other ones and test. You will find that the issue will be gone completely or changed. 4GB is good but try 2 and see if it will take also
