Just thought I'd give an update. The computer is up and running now with no problems. I'm not sure why, but initially after I had installed XP on it, I was putting the gfx drivers on from the cd when it froze. I was pretty pissed off at this point because of the numerous times it had been freezing on me before, so I basically said fuck it. A couple days later, I got some arctic silver thermal paste for the cpu, then I simply reinstalled XP, and d/led the gfx drivers off the net. I put it through some paces with a couple games, and it's working fine. Thanks to everyone for the help, especially suggesting checking the cpu temperature.
