Instead of dwelling on the SP2 vs SP3 issue, lets look at what's happening:
1. Your computer crashes.
2. Your computer is putting out an usual sound when it crashes.
3. You monitor is displaying irregular lines and colors.
My guess is a hardware problem.:
1. It could be related to not enough RAM or bad RAM. We don't have any information on RAM.
2. It could be a failing graphich card.
3. You could also have a failing hard drive.
Or iftcould be software related:
1.. Your security is 'ntl netguard' which is primarily an antivirus program- you do not mention any spyware/adware programs.
2. Maintenance is not mentioned and it could be a system overloaded with files that need to be cleaned up. (this may be a contributing fact, but not all)
It is most likely a combination of hardware/software problems.
Please fill in any missing information so that we can know what we're working with.
