Everytime I play any video game (Battleflied 3, Call of Duty 4, Dirt3, STEAM games like Team Fortress). Any other time it doesn't freeze... It's odd, no freezing wwhile rendering or multitasking. I've watch the CPU use and only it's top while gaming... The PSU gets hotter while gaming than rendering or multitasking.

I ALSO NOTICE A SOUND WHEN THE COMPUTER FREEEZES, THE HDD MAKES A SOUND. SOMETHIMES I RESTART AND THE HDD WON'T READ... Only when gets to a "normal" temperature...

My specs:
Elitegroup ECS G31T-M v1 MOBO
500W GENERIC PSU (about 2 years without problems like this)
Intel Core 2 Quad Q8300 (NOT OC)
2x2Gb Kingston DDR2 Ram
500Gb Seagate 5000 RPM
Sapphire AMD 6870 HD


DESKTOP CONFIGURATION:
PS2 keayboard, 1366x768 AOC 18.5" LED display, wireless generic mouse, 2.5 CREATIVE SOUND SYSTEM (locates just above GENERIC ANTECK CASE)... I read that sometimes the subwoofer may couse magnetic interfence but why only while gaming... :S

NON ADICIONAL HDD NOR DISK DRIVE.
I got a small fan to one of the USB, a wireless Mouse Receiver, a mini USB-B to debug MCU and school stuff and a MADCATZ 360 CONTROLLER, sometimes 1 or 2 USB drives.

Adicional software I use: Solidworks, Rhino, Matlab, CSS, Steam, LabView, Spotify, iTunes, NO PROBLEM MULTITASKING THIS. (In the worst case scenario SOLIDWORKS, SPOTIFY, MATLAB AND CSS where running but not freezing). THE COMMON PROBLEM I HAVE IT'S THAT CHROME STOP WORKING, doesn't matter if it's 1 windows or 20, randomly crash...

RUNNING WIN 7 ULTIMATE 32 BITS, AND THE HDD MAKE A SOUND WHILE FREEZING OR TRYING TO REBOOT UNSUCCESFULLY

I HOPE YOU COULD HELP ME
