It's all CRASHING!!!!!!

I'm having major problems!! It's seems to happen no matter what game I play. Lately i've been playing Operation Flashpoint, Return to Wolfenstien. and Unreal Tourn. they all seem to crash in about a half hour of play. It usually crashes to the desktop but sometimes the PC re-boots itself. I'm running XP with 768 MB of ram, an AMD anthlon 1.01 gig processor, and Ge-Force 4 128MB video card. I have no clue what the problem may be cause the event log gives no info on the error.

well, 2 obvious possibilities. system resources and heat. either something is eating your ram that you dont know about, or your system is overheating. there are other possible causes, but those are the two most likely. check them out first.
if you dont know how to do this, check out the guides for hardware on this site. use the button on the left.

thanks redwench,

i really the appreciate the advice. i never really considered the heat factor although it has been wicked hot around here. i'll check on the RAM. i have alot of stuff on this thing that i don't need so i'm gonna format and start clean. thanks again!!!

Run the CPU in the ice box and see if it helps!
