Lately my computer have been acting weird during video intensive games. When i'm playing cs source and WoW, out of the blue my computer would freeze and make a whole bunch of very loud buzzing noise coming out of my speakers. I know my sound card is fine when it freezes because I have a tv tuner and it is directly connected to the sound card's aux and i still hear the audio from the tv tuner in the background of all of the buzzing. When the game freezes, I can't do anything but force reboot. I thought it was the ram for a while so i increased the latency. Now it did it again only this time, after i forced reboot, the computer doesnt show anything on screen. I dont hear any beeps after I reboot but the monitor's led isnt amber either. Do you guys think my vid card died (the vid card's fan is working)? All fans are running etc.

Specs:
A64 3000+
Gigabyte GA-k8ns
128mb 9800 pro
1gb (512x2) corsair VS
