game crash

processor=AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2600+&speed=512 ram=52x cdrw =GeForce FX 5200/AGP/SSE/3DNOW!&directxversion=9.0

when i play medal of honor allied assault, cs condition zero my computer screen will go black and  my computer will crash or restart.

ive notice when i play diablo 2 it will lag real bad when the cdrom starts to read the cd.
plz help me!

Got the latest drivers for the video card?

yeah i did and it still does it
i think it may be that  its overheating
i just put a new 5.1 sound card in it and i only got 1 fan in the middle and i also have a amd
so i think i might try to move the sound card down to the last pci spot.
and maybe get another fan
should i do this?

[R.I.P.]

grantw123....If you suspect its overheating........go into your bios ( dont know which one your using) but if you find the part that refers to pc health you should be able to see what the temp. is in there and adding another fan and moving your card should improve things. I would monitor the temp. Then relocate the card and monitor the temp..........and then try the second fan.
I am assuming that you have checked to see if you have any bugs or viruses present. I also have assumed that your system was ok when you played the games you mentioned .......before you installed the new sound card.
Let us know

this might sound stupid  but i have windows xp home
and i couldnt find my comput temp.

look in the BIOS under 'computer health' or somthing like this.

i couldnt find it still
but i put in a fan and move my sound card down to the last slot and still it happens
i think its my sound
i think it all started doing when i put it in
its a Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 PCI OEM

here is a program were you can check everything on your pc.  pc wizzard 2004 its a good program.
