    I recently bought a new system, as seen below:

     

    CPU AMD|3200/400 ATHLON XP

    MB nForce2|5P1A4D NF7-S V2 ABIT ATX

    VGA ATIOEM|RADEON 9800PRO 128M

    2X DDR 512MB|DDR400 CL3 PC3200 RTL

    HD 120GB|SEAGAT ST3120026AS SATA

    DVD+/-RW LITEON SOHW-812S BLACK

     

    Problem is as follows, everytime i run a game...Farcry, City of Heroes, Painkiller, etc, my system will eventually shutdown the game and return me to windows, or worse, my entire system will shutdown (a more recent development). This doesnt always happen immediately...sometimes it will be after 20 minutes...sometimes after 5 minutes. I have tried installing all of the newest drivers to my machine but nothing has worked. I believe the problem may be related directly to my vid card due to the fact that I put my ancient GeForce 2 in and the programs did not crash. However, I do not this it is defective as it worked in my friends comp. I have purchased a new power supply as well (350 Watts which should be sufficient). Has anyone out there experienced any compatability or driver issues with this card? I am stumped and do not know where to go from here.
