Default Left Hanging

My computer has recently (< 3 months ish) started randomly hanging. It has, so far, only happened playing games, and the most frequent is when playing Black and White 2.

If memory serves, it behaved in an approximately similar fashion when I last installed the game, several months ago. Now, however, it occasionally does the same thing playing other games, and I only reinstalled the game today.

Does anyone have any suggestions, tips, etc?

Default Left Hanging

Clean your CPU fan. Most likely overheating.

hmm... no, no effect. Still stacked and died. and it's not memory leak or processor overheating, as far as I can ascertain. Any other suggestions?
