Good Morning and welcome to Webroot.
Without knowing what version of Windows this is and without the complete BSOD code given this is a tough one to help resolve. It is a driver issue but the problem is we can not determine at this stage if it is solely a driver or a hardware failure. It could be as simple as a drive cable going bad to a hard drive early warning of failure.
However the easiest and probably most viable option at this stage is to do a system restore to a day or two ago when this system was working without any errors. The process is fairly simple and it should get you back up and running.

I was presented with a 32 bit Toshiba laptop (Windows 7) with this issue. It was not a real BSOD. It was a browser window purporting to be a genuine message . It was accompanied by a recorded female voice repeating a warning about the issue.
I presume it's malware downloaded with a game.
