For some reason about 2 weeks ago my computer crashes everytime I run a game for more than 10 mins. The when I press the restart button it says the system has failed to boot. I then unplug the power and turn the computer on and it boots fine. It's really bizarre that it's still happening after I formatted the computer and re-installed everything, which leads me to believe that it could be hardware that's causing the problem. Only games crash the system, has anyone else experienced this ever?

My specs are:

AMDXP3000+
X800XT PE
1024Gig of ram
Windows XP Professional with SP2
Direct X 9.0c

I'd appreciate any help, I don't want this happening when HL2 comes out. It'd drive me up the wall.
