CPU Usage/Possible BUS problem?

Hello again, Anandtech!

I'm having a problem that I just can't figure out how to solve. When doing high memory intensive things on my rig, like playing Warcraft for example, my computer will freeze, somewhat. If I do the three-finger-salute and bring up Windows Task Manager, occassionally I can end the process and avoid restarting. Just the program stops responding basically, which leads my whole PC to stop responding, requiring me to reboot.

Also, if I'm watching a DivX movie or something, or even streaming a clip online, my screen will go to black for a second, then come back. I'm not sure what is going on and I need some advice.

Is it my video card, possibly a CPU/Memory BUS problem? I've had problems ever since I started using this Asus motherboard. =(

Advice is appreciated.

G'day.
 
I would torture test under prime95 and make sure your system is stable. Memtest is also good for testing memory.
