First, be sure you have a good antivirus and scan regularly, second have a spyware remover such as AdAware and scan that often also. If neither one of those fixes your problem then from what you said it sounds like a heat problem since it dosent do this when functioning as a server but does when gaming because gaming produces alot of heat inside the case, maybe try getting a better heatsink/fan combo for your cpu and add some case fans. Hope this helps.
