Game crash and freezes please help

[travislefler]

Hey all, i need some help. I have a fresh install of windows xp. It seems every time i play any game like Counter Strike Source or Battlefield 2 or others. After about 2-15 minutes playing (randomly) my game will most of time time freeze (lockup) usually with a looped noise. Or it will crash to desktop. I've tried everything i can think of so far. I've tried old and new video drivers, i've tried older and newer sound card drivers.i tried swapping out my sound card and using on board sound. I bought new more expensive Corsair memory. Updated DirectX. I don't know what else to do.

Please if you can help tell me what else i can do?

Here's my system

Intel Dual Core 6750 2.66mhz
Abit FP-IN9 SLI
EVGA 7900GT
2gb ddr2 corsair 6400
Creative sound blaster X-Fi Music

Check voltages (ram,cpu,northbridge and southbridge)and turn off the energy saving crap! What does Intel call it! C1E support or something.

Did you unistall the old video drivers before installing new ones ?
Often this process isn't enough on its own and you need to use drive cleaner pro to completely remove all traces of older video drivers
