Looks like a random error to me. These things happen (but hopefully not very 
often).

If you haven't recently pulled the covers off and cleaned the (inevitable) 
dust accumulation from around the CPU & chipset fan(s) & heatsinks, this 
would be A Good Idea (tm). Hold a vacuum cleaner hose somewhere close to the 
area to be cleaned & use a stiffish paintbrush or similar to loosen the furry 
pale grey deposits.
