CS:Source, EQ2 Crashes
Whenever I play CS Source my computer will freeze (looping whatever sound was currently played) and the monitor shuts off. I can play for about 5-10 minutes before this happens. My roommate encounters the same thing when he plays EQ2 on my machine. I can play other games such as XIII just fine.
I tested all the directx 9.0c features from dxdiag and they all worked fine. This happens with either the latest omegas or the latest catalysts (i'm currently using the latest catalysts). My system specs are in my signature

try turning your agp speed down to 4x rather than 8x. also try turning off vpu recover and making sure fast writes are turned off.
if all else fails, you can try to format your hard drive i suppose.

Another possibility
Make sure the fan is still spinning on your vidcard, that's alot like how mine acted when the fan died.

Update, turning agp speed down to 4x and turning off vpu recover actually did work. Roommate gave me the wrong information.
