Problem with games.

All games play fine for 15-30 minutes sometimes up to 2 hours, and then it will either crash (giving no error,) screen will go blue, or it will restart the computer. I've tried 3 graphics cards (2 nvidia, 1 ati [all installed properly ;-).]) I still get the errors. Personally I've narrowed it down to RAM or Power Supply, but I'm not sure which if either give these problems. Much appreciated in advance,

Update:

I actually recieved an error this time (nvidia ftw!)

It says that windows was shutdown due to an nvidia file..but as stated earlier, this happens with ATI as well..I am running DirectX 9.0c...could be a software issue?

Edit: No problems found.
DirectDraw test results: All tests were successful.
Direct3D 7 test results: All tests were successful.
Direct3D 8 test results: All tests were successful.
Direct3D 9 test results: All tests were successful.

Is the computer new? How long has this problem been occuring? Specs on the PSU?

I beleive I used Memtest86 when last checking my RAM. I'm sure there are many RAM checkers out there, though. Best go on and test it first. If you have two or more sticks, I hear it's best to test them individually.
 
ehhh ive had this problem before...do a scan disk and make sure nothing is damaged. Happened to me....now im still trying to figure why i cant boot into safe mode......:(
