Does the computer restart, or freeze? I would go check out the event viewer under control panels, and administrative tools.. if you see any red X's copy the errors into the forum here.. I would assume it is a driver issue.. maybe somehting with a bios update

maybe overheating whilst playing demanding games?

I dont think so, intel has never had a problem with heat, and i have an intake and exhaust fan for my CPU... Ive been thinking about changing my motherboard but never had the cash for it...

cheers,
