Radeon 9800 Pro 128 in wwiionline

I have installed an ATI Radion 9800 PRO 128 in my computer. I have a AMD 2800XP cpu on an ASUS A7V8X MB, 1 Gig DDR ram. I have a cable modem. Everything works really well. I downloaded the lastest drivers and installed as per instructions. I deleted previous video card drivers before installing new card. The problem I am having is that when I play wwiionline, everything works great, good frame rates and all. Then all of a sudden, they computer will shut off completly or screen will freeze with sound stuck on same place. I then have to reboot. I sure would like to know what I can do to fix this. I looked at instructions by Rovdyr in wwiionline forums, but look to be a little over my head in some areas.

Temperatures are normal. I have an allied 450w power supply. I put that in a year ago. Everything works really well on computer. I went through the procedure that is on this forum and uninstalled everything and then did reinstall of vid card software and then updated the Catalyst to 3.5. I have extra cooling fans in a midi tower. Last nite I was on the game for over 30 mins before it locked up. I am going to reload the game and see if that changes anything. I don't play any other games, so can't try that. Thanks
