System freezes during games

[SDevil33]

My 1GHz Athlon system freezes during games. It gets to about 102 degrees F when it is running games. Is the processor too hot? I am using a Leadtek Winfast Geforce2 32MB card with its latest drivers, should I switch to the detonator drivers? Any other ideas? Thanks.

Heh, dude, my cpu is usually 140 steady when I'm just talking on icq. Yours is fine .

Just to add to my other post, when it freezes, there is a little white dot (a pixel probably) in the top left hand corner that isn't there before it freezes. If that helps any of you techies out there...Thanks again.

are you overclocking anything?

Nope, everything is running standard. I can't understand it. Everything is set up correctly. I tried different video card drivers (the Winfast ones to the Detonator ones) and the same thing still occurs. It happens every time I play Half-Life and its happened both times I've tried NBA Live 2000. What's the deal?

Are the via 4 in 1 drivers installed ?

 

[SDevil33]

As far as I know, should I update them? I just used the ones off of the ABIT CD that I got with my KT7-RAID.

Try using the VIA drivers 4in1428.zip (ver 4.28)

For me in Win98se the most stable combo on my KT7-raid is the via 4.25 & nvidia 6.49 drivers.
