No. That is an indication of unstable hardware, bad RAM chips for
instance, an overclocked CPU, or cheap RAM chips and a cheap
mainboard that don't work together at full throttle.

Try http://www.memtest86.com/ but even that is not bullet-proof,
since other parts of your hardware can be the cause of instability.
