I have recently been having a problem where my computer is freezing at random times during games. So far Everquest 2, World of Warcraft, and Unreal Tournament 2004 have all frozen up at random times. It hasn't done this in the year I have had it. I've tried everything: system rollback, uninstalling and reinstalling, shutting the computer completely down. I noticed the problem after installing .net Framework 2.0 but I have now decided that that is most likely coincidental as I hadn't played any games in a quite a few days when I installed it. My thermal readout reads about 90 degrees when I am playing an online game, So I don't know if something might have happened when I ran a System Optimizer (TuneUp Utilities 2006 I believe). I'm completely lost, going in circles.

2 gb DDR Corsair RAM.

I'm not sure if any of that might matter, but it might. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me. This is my third day without sleep trying to figure out what this is. The most pride stinging is the fact that I am a Computer Major.
Thanks again,
-Shane.
