Try to rule out any of the above, each of them can cause weird behavior.

I just put this together, so all my drivers are very recent (from the CDs that came with em anyway).
My power supply is new and rated for 500V or whatever, it should be more than sufficient.
I should say, I'm pretty sure it only happens during gaming, I mostly use it for gaming, so I'm just not, not gaming very much when it's on. If that makes sense...
Windows never told me to restart.
I've of course, lowered the vid settings in game.
I don't think it's overheating, I've had that problem before and it didn't act like this.
I'm leaning to some sort of driver problem, but have no clue what else to do except reformat (i've tried registry cleaners).
