Due to the file name i would guess its to do with the graphics card, either driver or hardware..... if you boot into safe mode (keep pressing F8 when turning on and it will bring up an advanced boot menu) just leave it running in there, if it works fine use the safe mode with networking to download the latest driver for the graphics card.... If it still does it it soundsl ike a hardware fault in which case another grpaihcs card is needed....

take the graphics card out and clean it with a paint brush or a can of air if it only happens after 15 mins its definatly a heat issue

Do a search on your computer for a file called memory.dmp. If you have this file, if you can post it somewhere where I can download it, I'll tell you what's causing the problem.

Stop error code 0x000000EA (THREAD_STUCK_IN_DEVICE_DRIVER)

"This issue occurs if the graphics adapter is caught in an infinite loop while it waits for the video hardware to become idle. This can indicate that there is a problem with the video hardware, or that the graphics adapter cannot program the hardware correctly."
