Sounds like your computer may be getting dirty inside and not allowing
the heat to escape.

Is this a laptop or desktop?

Either way, get a can of compressed air and blow out all the fans and
heatsinks. Make sure to hold the fans from spinning very fast as it could
fry the bearings or bushings.
 
Yeah check the heat of your card with some third party software such as speed fan.

If its too high then invest in some cooling.

Vinni could ya give me a link for a third party software

Thanks for ur help guyzzz rly appreciate that!!!!
 
It might help if we knew your computer's specs. All you've told us is that your card no longer works reliably, which could literally be anything from a bad video card to spyware/virus running in the background hogging resources. Did you recently download something from a risky site?

It's a crapshoot at this point, I'm afraid.
 
K i rebooted my comp and installed everything i need and now its laggy and my comp specs are:

2 gb RAM
160gb HDD

WEll if he could play it before, I'd say he's above the minimum specs. Seems to me like your driver install failed. Go to AMD's site and download the latest driver for your chipset. uninstall the old drivers, then reboot and install the new one you just downloaded.
 
ahahaha thanks men ima find the update appreciate ur help!! =D

Edited: should i download the same one as in the ATI Radeon Express 1100?? if theres a better one give me the name =D
