    Humorous, but not helpful.

    Might be caused by your graphics card settings, also check that all your hardware drivers are up-to-date.

    Also run a Chkdsk in case you've got a hard drive glitch.

    AMDs drivers are rubbish, switched to a AMD card myself and it can be problematic now and again. It's probably just the driver caused the problem. Make sure your Catalyst drivers are up to date (don't use BETA ones) and just keep an eye on it would be my advice. If it happens frequently it could be a hardware issue but it's likely just a driver glitch
