The desktop icon flashing is probably because you have it selected (or Vista is automatically selecting it for some reason). Apparently Vista does this if you click on a desktop icon, and turn off your computer.

As for it randomly shutting off, is the battery okay?
And have you tried Safe mode?

doesnt sound like a problem to me. Just probably the desktop refreshing while shutting down processes.
