Laptop screen goes black and have to force quit it:

It may have happened about two to three times already today, which is the first day it's starting to randomly black screen.


The screen itself will shut off but the keyboard lights will still be illuminated. Any music that's on will skip and freeze until you have to force quit it to get it back working. After turning it back on it works perfectly fine. Gives Apple an error report and everything. Everything is updated and going well, too.


Has anyone had this problem?

Mac OS X (10.6.4)
