This has been going on for some time, but nothing has yet gone bang! I can't understand what the errors mean. They seem to occur every other day. The machine is a laptop. Also I am not sure if these errors occurred when I forced a reboot a few times when a WiFi USB driver crashed and locked up my keyboard. Should I be worried?
