Is the error exactly the same every time or does it vary slightly?

There are two possibilities: there's either a bug in the kernel 
somewhere or you have some bad memory.   Unless you have been tinkering 
with the kernel or you have some relatively unusual devices I'd be 
inclined to think it's bad memory.    Go to www.memtest86.com and 
download the memory tester you'll find there.
