My PC has bee crashing frequently for the past month. It reboots automatically, or the BSOD appears with varying messages each time.

It occurs mostly during the following events- when I view a high quality video in youtube or sometimes even when I play a larger file in vlc, when I save a GIF image or other large "save link as" attempts, when google images is scrolled deep or other long forum like webpages with multimedia sigs and avatars. When Youtube videos crash, the audio loops for a few seconds before crashing or the speakers make a terrible scary gargly sounds.

I formatted and re-installed my OS (XP sp3), but the problem still persists. Any help ??? Could the problem lie in the hardware, or my graphic driver ???
