What kind of computer do you have? Many people that have posted about this problem lately have reported it happening to their MacBook Pros, which turned out to be a rather bad problem with the graphics cards.

I have a Macbook Pro, its from the generation where multitouch was added (4,1?).

So it might be the gfx card? Hm, then it seems there is nothing i can do. :(

It could be, yeah. Apparently some components weren't soldered into the computer properly. I'd take it to an Apple Store and put on a video and show them what it does, they could replace it for you.
