This only happens when I play a game, so far I have been playing Alien Vs Predator 2, and im maybe 40 seconds into actual gameplay and I get a blue screen or the whole thing locks up. It also does the same with Battlefield 1942 and Maplestory but I can usually play longer before it happens. I have noticed the Onboard NIC and my video card are using the same IRQ,but windows has yet to report a resource conflict. Ive also checked the event viewer and nothing particulary seems relevant. My CPU Temp has yet to go above 33 degrees celsius. Im really not sure what to do and any help would be appeciated.

My specs are:
AMD 64 3000+
512 DDR400
GeFore FX 5200 128 mb
MSI K8T NEO motherboard
1 80 gig 7200 rpg SATA
1 20 gig 5200 rpm HD

Windows Xp home

Well if they're conficting, if you're not using Onboard video go ahead and disable that (?).

Otherwise, that's just odd.

Try running Memtest86 (google it), for a few hours to see if there are any memory errors (bad memory always seems to be the culprit with these things). If memtest86 doesn't come up with anything, run Prime95's torture test a little bit to see if there are any roundoff errors.

If all else fails then try using the onboard video and see if that still gives you a problem.
