Sometimes is at first start, other second, etc. It's random. Screen goes black with vertical colour lines and System stops. At 30 seconds System restarts without warning or error messages and with mounted discs. When X starts the System goes ok.

Either way, this sounds like a bug in third party code (the nvidia driver or XFree86) that you should take up with them. Kris
