Maybe your video card is broken and it only manifests itself as an issue when it is in 3D mode (the clock speed increases, power draw rises, and the GPU will heat up in under 30 seconds).

It could be a number of things.

List what you have tried and what model of mobo, video card & monitor you have so ppl can help.

Have you tried running DXDIAG?

do you have another output connected? for example an HDMI to your TV?

Make sure you are running your monitor as the main, or even better select to display only on the monitor you wish to run the game on.
