Im not sure what happened. I was using windows movie maker and my comp crashed, giving the following error message in the BSOD

*** Hardware Malfunction
Call your hardware vendor for support
NMI: Parity Check / Memory Parity Error
*** The System has halted

I have a picture

Not quite sure what happened. Force restart my comp and all seems to work properly. Should I be a little worried or should I go take it to a hardware vendor?

(And yes, thats a really old computer, thinkpad Tseries).
 
Solution
May be getting old, might check to see if a newer BIOS or drivers, but guessing the hardware is headed south, might look into new DRAM if this continues, parity errors indicate a memory chip that's off
