Hello all I am having a strange freeze bug that forces me to manually shut my PC down and reboot.
Happens mainly when I am playing PC games since thats all I do when I do log the PC...other then when I need to do some research for school.
The error message is this...this happened ONLY once when I was on firefox doing a google search my PC rebooted and this error was here. The rest of the time no error message just a 100% freeze while playing CS-WoW-Oblivion.

After this I boot up my PC and my power supply fan goes off like a jet engine..and randomly does it now when I am not in game. My pc temps are the same sitting at about 50 degrees idle and 65 on high load.
After doing some reading I heard a mention of it could be a error with nivida drivers which I have the newest to date for my Evga 7600GT 256mb.
I was told that a minidump file could tell me what the error is but the one in the screenshots lead to no file...either one of them not sure why I also checked hidden files/folders to double check to make sure I didn't miss it.
Only dump file I have is Mini022208-01 in my windows folder.
I can't seem to get windows debugger to open the file so I can't read what the problems could be.
I uploaded via attachments incase it held any useful information.
My pc is 2.2ghz 3500+ AMD athelon evga 7600GT 256mb 2gb of pc3200 ram
I use Windows XP SP2 Kaspersky anti-virus 6.0 sygate firewall installed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
